The Nude Alone Is Well Dressed

In Short, Beauty Is Everywhere. It Is Not That She Is Lacking To Our Eye, But Our Eyes Which Fail To Perceive Her. Beauty Is Character And Expression. Well, There Is Nothing In Nature Which Has More Character Than The Human Body. In Its Strength And Its Grace It Evokes The Most Varied Images. One Moment It Resembles A Flower: The Bending Torso Is The Stalk; The Breasts, The Head, And The Splendor Of The Hair Answer To The Blossoming Of The Corolla. The Next Moment It Recalls The Pliant Creeper, Or The Proud And Upright Sapling.

The Only Principle In Art Is To Copy What You See. Dealers In Aesthetics To The Contrary, Every Other Method Is Fatal.

The Artist Has Only To Trust His Eyes.

I Have Unbounded Admiration For The Nude. I Worship It Like A God.

Sculpture Is The Art Of The Hole And The Lump.
