In general it can be said that a nation's art is greatest when it most reflects the character of its people.

In its most limited sense, modern, art would seem to concern itself only with the technical innovations of the period.

The question of the value of nationality in art is perhaps unsolvable.

Great art is the outward expression of an inner life in the artist, and this inner life will result in his personal vision of the world.

I find linseed oil and white lead the most satisfactory mediums.

If you could say it in words, there would be no reason to paint.
