5321 | Already in that very question"how?" |
5321 | And if it does so attain, will men be able to rely on its solution?" |
5321 | And they ask themselves:"Will science, if it continues on the road it has followed for so long, ever attain to the solution of these problems? |
5321 | But how are we to do it? |
5321 | By what method are these material objects to be reproduced? |
5321 | Can the distinctions we make between matter and spirit be nothing but relative modifications of one or the other? |
5321 | Despite memorials and statues, are they really many who have risen to his level? |
5321 | For when this"how?" |
5321 | How many years will it be before a greater segment of the triangle reaches the spot where he once stood alone? |
5321 | If the emotional power of the artist can overwhelm the"how?" |
5321 | In other words, how far may we go in altering the forms and colours of this nature? |
5321 | Is everything material? |
5321 | Is whatever can not be touched with the hand, spiritual? |
5321 | Must we then abandon utterly all material objects and paint solely in abstractions? |
5321 | Spots appear on the sun and the sun grows dark, and what theory can fight with darkness? |
5321 | The question most generally asked about Kandinsky''s art is:"What is he trying to do?" |
5321 | The question"what?" |
5321 | This"what?" |
5321 | What is the message of the competent artist? |
5321 | Whither is this lifetime tending? |
5321 | Why did they come? |
5321 | [ Footnote 2: Are not many monuments in themselves answers to that question?] |
5321 | [ Footnote: Among artists one often hears the question,"How are you?" |
5321 | disappears from art; only the question"how?" |
5321 | or is EVERYTHING spiritual? |
27194 | And what are the pictures that in general draw the popular attention? |
27194 | At last he turned in upon himself: What does this canvas mean to me? |
27194 | But all the while, which of these conceptions figures the"real"newsboy? |
27194 | But what is the poor seeker after art to do? |
27194 | But what of new significance, energy, life, has this work to express to me? |
27194 | But who shall say that, seen in the fastnesses of his native rivers, he is not the beautiful perfect fulfilling of nature''s harmony? |
27194 | Can it be that the painter has seen a new wonder in nature, a new significance in human life? |
27194 | For after all, what is the reality? |
27194 | Is it a fair test? |
27194 | The appreciator need simply ask himself,"What has this work to reveal to me of beauty that I have not perceived for myself? |
27194 | The appreciator need simply ask, What is the beauty, what the idea, which the artist is striving to reveal by these symbols of color and form? |
27194 | What is the meaning of all this striving after expression? |
27194 | What lover of beauty is not ever awake to the revelation of new beauty? |
27194 | What man is wholly indifferent to the display of human skill? |
27194 | What was the aim of these men who have left their record here? |
27194 | What was their moving impulse? |
27194 | Whence comes this beauty, this strength, this graciousness? |
27194 | Who is there without his store of pleasurable associations, who is not stirred by any call which rouses them into play? |
27194 | Why, why does the human spirit seek to manifest itself in forms which we call beautiful? |

16178 | 97 THE ARTIST AND THE TRADESMAN 110 PROFESSIONALISM IN ART 120 WASTE OR CREATION? |
16178 | Are we humbled enough to listen to the wisdom of the ages, which tells us that we can be wise only if we listen for a wisdom that is not ours? |
16178 | Are we, with our money, forcing him to work that is for him worth doing; are we, to use an old phrase, considering the good of his soul? |
16178 | But will they learn from their sufferings, shall we all learn, that doing is not everything? |
16178 | Does an Academician value the criticism of a Vorticist, or_ vice versa_? |
16178 | Each is a heretic with some truth in his heresy; what is the true doctrine? |
16178 | He would say to himself, not How can I protect myself with this against the tyranny of the struggle for life? |
16178 | How are we to get rid of this distinction we have made between the artist and the tradesman? |
16178 | How are we to recover for the artist the virtues of the craftsman and for the craftsman the virtues of the artist? |
16178 | How otherwise can we explain the passion for superfluous machine- made ornament which makes our respectable homes so hideous? |
16178 | If no one prized art, why should sham art have come into existence? |
16178 | Is this a platitude? |
16178 | O mighty process, what talent can avail to penetrate a nature such as thine? |
16178 | Process or Person? |
16178 | Rather he seems to cry, like Poe, of everything that he draws-- O God, can I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp? |
16178 | Still, the question remains, How is the artist to be recognized? |
16178 | The Venetians have done this much better, we think; and why, if Poussin was going to paint like Titian, did he not use Titian''s colour? |
16178 | The question is, Was it painted by Romney? |
16178 | There is a riddle-- When is an artist not an artist? |
16178 | Waste or Creation? |
16178 | What can they know about Greek sculpture if their own drawing- rooms are hideous? |
16178 | What did he do in thought compared with St. Thomas, or in art compared with the builders of Chartres or Bourges? |
16178 | What is the difference, as of different worlds, between Rubens at his best and Tintoret at his best? |
16178 | What tongue will it be that can unfold so great a wonder? |
16178 | Who would believe that so small a space could contain the images of all the universe? |
16178 | Why adorned with wreaths of myrtle? |
16178 | but What can I do with this? |
16178 | not How can I invest this? |
58981 | But compared with ourselves, has our course also been progressive? |
58981 | But how does this accord with fact and with usefulness? |
58981 | Does not this establish the existence of taste coeval with the earliest traces of information? |
58981 | Has not the pencil''ample verge''and''room''appropriate? |
58981 | Here, however, it may be asked, how far has prescription the power to determine this matter? |
58981 | How, then, are facts seemingly so discordant to be reconciled? |
58981 | Is it, then, the fate of the human spirit, like human institutions, to fall away immediately on attaining a degree of perfection? |
58981 | Shall we say with some, that to decide on the relations of truth and falsehood, is the sole province of the judgment or understanding? |
58981 | Since Zion''s desolation, when that He Forsook his former city, what could be Of earthly structures, in his honor piled, Of a sublimer aspect? |
58981 | The subjects of discussion here involve two questions-- first, Whence and by whom this style was introduced? |
58981 | What then constitutes the essential difference between the beautiful in general language, and the beautiful in the fine arts? |
58981 | or, which is identical, the difference between the powers of judgment and of taste? |
58981 | secondly, From what prototype the idea was originally derived? |

38500 | If a woman lose a coin, does she not light a candle and search carefully until she finds it? |
38500 | Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? 38500 14:30 SCHWARTZWherefore didst thou doubt?" |
38500 | Do they help? |
38500 | Does Mary seem already to behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world? |
38500 | If God so clothe the grass of the field, shall he not much more clothe you? |
38500 | It is the moment described in Luke 2:48, when his mother speaks to Jesus,"Son, why hast thou dealt thus with us?" |
38500 | Jesus, awakened from a sound sleep, says calmly,"Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?" |
38500 | Some of the disciples wonder( John 13:22), some ask,"Is it I?" |
38500 | The Master seems to be saying,"Have ye not read what David did when he was an hungered, and they that were with him? |
38500 | The moment is that when Jesus says,"If I have told you earthly things and ye believe not, how shall ye believe if I tell you heavenly things?" |
38500 | The perpetual questions should be, What do you see? |
38500 | The picture shows also, without doubt, the influence of the well- known hymn, by Mrs. Stowe,"Knocking, knocking, who is there?" |
38500 | The speaker is asking,"Was not the Christ bound to undergo all this before entering upon his glory?" |
38500 | The sphinx riddle was"What is man?" |
38500 | What does it contribute to the total content of the picture? |
38500 | What does it mean? |
38500 | What does the picture as a whole have to say? |
38500 | What is that for? |
38500 | Which artist has told the story most simply and directly? |
38500 | Which has embodied more perfectly the first, or the second, or the third? |
38500 | Which has introduced elements of his own? |
38500 | Which has, on the whole, told the story most vividly? |
38500 | Which most beautifully? |
38500 | Why is that here? |
38500 | Why? |
38500 | Why? |
38500 | _ Baroccio, Plate 5,_ seems to have seized upon the moment when Mary has just asked"How shall this be?" |
38500 | _ Hunt, Plate 40_, has invented an occasion to emphasize the prophetic words often applied to Mary,"Is any sorrow like unto my sorrow?" |
47610 | Again, why should there not have been a Homer as there was a Dante, in lieu of an aggregation of men? |
47610 | And why? |
47610 | But if industry carried them thus far, may not you also hope for the same reward from the same labour? |
47610 | From whence does this proceed? |
47610 | If it is asked, how is more skill acquired by the observation of greater numbers? |
47610 | Is not art, he may say, an imitation of nature? |
47610 | It seems as if Shakespeare asked himself, What is a prince likely to say to his attendants on such an occasion? |
47610 | Must he not, therefore, who imitates her with the greatest fidelity be the best artist? |
47610 | On whom, then, can he rely, or who shall show him the path that leads to excellence? |
47610 | Sir Joshua Reynolds-- to whom is the name unfamiliar? |
47610 | That novelty is a very sufficient reason why we should admire is not denied; but because it is uncommon, is it therefore beautiful? |
47610 | Variety and intricacy is a beauty and excellence in every other of the arts which address the imagination: and why not in Architecture? |
47610 | What has reasoning to do with the art of painting?" |
47610 | What is there in this fragment that produces this effect, but the perfection of this science of abstract form? |
47610 | Who can read, for instance, without a smile, the words of Blake, that sweet, childlike mind, which was at once so penetrative and so uncritical? |
47610 | With what additional superiority, then, will the same artist appear when he has the power of selecting his materials as well as elevating his style? |
47610 | to whom, hearing it, does not appear in mental vision the equally familiar autograph portrait of the deaf artist? |
18383 | ''Have you heard what has been determined about the horses?'' 18383 Why is this?" |
18383 | ''How?'' |

18383 | But how can I help you in the matter, seeing that the work is not mine? |
18383 | But who can any longer consider these as wonders, after having seen so many in Rome? |
18383 | I asked one of the soldiers what they were there for? |
18383 | Milizia says of Theodoric,"Is this the language of a Gothic barbarian, the destroyer of good taste? |
18383 | One day I asked him, how he had attained to such a degree of perfection as to have gained so high a rank among the great painters of Italy? |
18383 | What were the Greeks then doing?" |
18383 | What would the ancients say, could they see our modern imitations of their labyrinths? |
18383 | Which are the most profane-- these pictures, or the Venus Anadyomene of Apelles, the Venus of Titian, and the Leda of Correggio? |
18383 | and are these the barbarians said to have been the destroyers of the beautiful monuments of antiquity? |
18383 | and if Filippo be ill, is that his fault?'' |
18383 | and what dost thou mean us to have for dinner, since thou hast overturned everything?'' |
18383 | do n''t you see that to create form and relief on a flat surface, is a greater labor than to fashion one shape into another?" |
18383 | eh? |
18383 | eh?'' |
18383 | is not Lorenzo there? |
18383 | said one of them,''do you not know what his intentions are?'' |
18383 | why does not he do something? |
18383 | why wilt thou not speak?" |

17244 | But,_ Can_ they be successful if the accepted masterpieces of modern sculpture are not to be set down as insipid? |
17244 | Can anyone doubt it who sees an exhibition of their works? |
17244 | Does nature look like this? |
17244 | How many foreigners know that he painted what are called architectural subjects delightfully, and even_ genre_ with zest? |
17244 | III What do we mean by style? |
17244 | In the event of such an irruption, would there be any torsos left from which future Poussins could learn all they should know of the human form? |
17244 | Indeed one is tempted often to inquire of the latter, Why so much interest in what apparently seems to you of so little import? |
17244 | Is it caution or perversity? |
17244 | Is not sympathy with what is modern, instant, actual, and apposite a fair parallel of patriotism? |
17244 | Is the absolute value of the parts in shadow lowered or raised? |
17244 | Is there more individuality in a thirteenth- century grotesque than in the"Faun"of the Capitol? |
17244 | It was felicitously of him, rather than of Dupré or Corot, that the naif peasant inquired,"Why do you paint the tree; the tree is there, is it not?" |
17244 | The first thought is not, Are the"Saint Jean"and the"Bourgeois de Calais"successful works of art? |
17244 | What does a canvas of Claude Monet show in this respect? |
17244 | What has been gained? |
17244 | What is the effect where considerable portions of the scene are suddenly thrown into marked shadow, as well as others illuminated with intense light? |
17244 | What was he thinking of? |
17244 | Where is the realistic tragedy, comedy, epic, composition of any sort? |
17244 | Wherein does the charm consist? |
17244 | Who knows? |
17244 | Why is he so obviously great as well as so obviously extraordinary? |
17244 | Why should not one feel the same quick interest, the same instinctive pride in his time as in his country? |
17244 | Why? |
17244 | Will it? |
17244 | Would there be any_ disjecta membra_ from which skilled anatomists could reconstruct the lost_ ensemble_, or at any rate make a shrewd guess at it? |
12045 | And I? |
12045 | 1552- 1619(?). |
12045 | A series of her mural decorations was exhibited in various German cities, and finally shown at the Paris Exposition of 1890(? |
12045 | Among the latter are"What Will Become of the Child?" |
12045 | An amphora decorated with landscape and figures was exhibited at the Promotrice in Florence in 1889(?) |
12045 | At Milan, 1886, her"Will He Arrive?" |
12045 | Because the artist was a foreigner? |
12045 | Can one doubt that such a Museum must be an element of artistic development in those who are in contact with it? |
12045 | Did not women paint those pictures of Isis-- goddess of Sothis-- that are like precursors of the pictures of the Immaculate Conception? |
12045 | Does this mean that she had been ungenerous in depriving him of the privilege of asking for what she so freely bestowed? |
12045 | Have I achieved a success, in the true, serious meaning of the word? |
12045 | How pathetic her written words:"I have spent six years, working ten hours a day, to gain what? |
12045 | In 1895 she settled in Berlin, where she has made a specialty of women''s and children''s portraits in olgraphy(?) |
12045 | Is it not more than the mere ableness of method, still more than the audacity of brush work, that often passes for style? |
12045 | Is it not the aim of painting to copy nature? |
12045 | Is it possible to dissociate the manner of a picture from its embodiment of some fact or idea? |
12045 | Is not this the key to the charm of her works? |
12045 | Miss Halse executed the reredos in St. John''s Church, Notting Hill, London; a terra- cotta relief called"Earthward Board"(?) |
12045 | Of this time she writes:"Am I satisfied? |
12045 | Paints genre subjects, some of which are"Captain John,"in National Museum;"Laughing Child,"in C. P. Huntington Collection;"Who Comes?" |
12045 | Was Constable in advance of his critics? |
12045 | Were there not artists among them who decorated temples and tombs with their imperishable colors? |
12045 | What could Henriette Knip do except paint pictures? |
12045 | Who knows? |
12045 | Why was this verdict not confirmed by the jury? |
12045 | Will the judgments of the present be thus reversed in the future? |
12045 | You have guessed it, have you not? |
27183 | All architecture is what you do to it when you look upon it,( Did you think it was in the white or gray stone? 27183 Who cares,"exclaims a clever maker of epigrams,"whether Mr. Ruskin''s views on Turner are sound or not? |
27183 | And how may he win that knowledge? |
27183 | And just what is it designed to express? |
27183 | But how to determine, each man for himself, what is the direction of our development? |
27183 | But what does his_ picture_ mean? |
27183 | But what is his subject? |
27183 | But what is the beauty in the unspeakable witch on the canvas of Frans Hals? |
27183 | But whence comes the majesty of this rude peasant, the dignity august of this rough and toil- burdened laborer, his power to move us? |
27183 | Has the painter through these forms, however crude or however accomplished, uttered what he genuinely and for himself thought and felt? |
27183 | In his rendering of the composer''s work what has he of his own to contribute by way of interpretation? |
27183 | Out of the complex of interests and appeals which an object offers, what is the_ truth_ of the object? |
27183 | The layman may ask himself, then, To what extent is a knowledge of technique necessary for appreciation? |
27183 | To a thoughtful student of these pictures sooner or later the question comes, Whence are these likenesses and these differences? |
27183 | What does it matter? |
27183 | What events did he shape to his own purpose by the active force of his genius? |
27183 | What is the bridge of transition between the work and the spirit of the appreciator by which the subtle connection is established? |
27183 | What is the special nature of the experience which the work communicates to us in terms of feeling? |
27183 | What is, then, we may ask, the relation of the fact of the subject to the beauty and final message of the work? |
27183 | What shapeless lump is that, bent, crouch''d there on the sand? |
27183 | What was the special angle of vision from which he looked upon the world? |
27183 | What were the circumstances that moulded his character and decided his course? |
27183 | Which one is that? |
27183 | _ A woman:_ Is that it? |
27183 | _( Stopping suddenly? |
27183 | or the lines of the arches and cornices?) |
27183 | that form in the dark, with tears? |
2901 | And how has it come, this slowly growing faith in Perfection for Perfection''s sake? |
2901 | And in what sort of age-- I thought-- are artists living now? |
2901 | And it began to ask itself in this uncertainty: Do I then desire to go on living? |
2901 | And what are we-- ripples on the tides of a birthless, deathless, equipoised Creative- Purpose-- but little works of Art? |
2901 | And what-- I thought do I mean by that? |
2901 | And what-- I thought-- is Realism? |
2901 | Are conditions favourable? |
2901 | Are there not all the signs of it? |
2901 | For, what is Style in its true and broadest sense save fidelity to idea and mood, and perfect balance in the clothing of them? |
2901 | Has he, on discovering its true nature, the right to call on the bookseller to refund its value? |
2901 | If my thoughts be"What could I buy that for?" |
2901 | Impulse of acquisition; or:"From what quarry did it come?" |
2901 | Impulse of inquiry; or:"Which would be the right end for my head?" |
2901 | Is it descriptive of technique, or descriptive of the spirit of the artist; or both, or neither? |
2901 | Shall not each attempt be judged on its own merits? |
2901 | Shall we waste breath and ink in condemnation of artists, because their temperaments are not our own? |
2901 | Was Turgenev a realist? |
2901 | Was he a realist? |
2901 | Were they realists? |
2901 | What is the meaning of that word so wildly used? |
2901 | What then is the heart of this term still often used as an expression almost of abuse? |
2901 | What then-- I thought-- is Art? |
2901 | What, then, in the light of the proved justice and efficiency of the Censorship of Drama, is the reason for the absence of the Censorship of Art? |
2901 | When a thing is new how shall it be judged? |
2901 | Why, then, have we no Censorship to protect us from the possibility of encountering works that bring blushes to the cheek of the young person? |
19164 | You can not travel in Greece? |
19164 | _ Must it be then only with our poets that we insist they shall either create for us the image of a noble morality, or among us create none? 19164 And if Miranda is immoral to Caliban, is that Miranda''s fault? 19164 Could it not be sung at all, or only sung ludicrously? 19164 Do you think the+ mênis Achilêos+ came of a hard heart in Achilles, or thePallas te hoc vulnere, Pallas,"of a hard heart in Anchises''son? |
19164 | First: What ground have we for thinking that art has ever been inspired as a message or revelation? |
19164 | If, in such times, fair pictures have been misused, how much more fair realities? |
19164 | Is there to be no king in it, think you, and every man to do that which is right in his own eyes? |
19164 | Next, what does that Greek opposition of black and white mean? |
19164 | Now, is not this a work which we may set about here in Oxford, with good hope and much pleasure? |
19164 | One kingdom;--but who is to be its king? |
19164 | Or only kings of terror, and the obscene empires of Mammon and Belial? |
19164 | These figures, he says,"Raphael drew and sent to Albert Dürer in Nürnberg, to show him"--What? |
19164 | This is grievous, you think, and hopeless? |
19164 | What internal evidence is there in the work of great artists of their having been under the authoritative guidance of supernatural powers? |
19164 | What is the purpose of your decoration? |
19164 | Which of us knows what the valley of Sparta is like, or the great mountain vase of Arcadia? |
19164 | Whom will_ you_ be governing by your thoughts, two thousand years hence? |
19164 | Would it not be well to know this? |
19164 | Yes, but of which king? |
19164 | which of us, except in mere airy syllabling of names, knows aught of"sandy Ladon''s lilied banks, or old Lycæus, or Cyllene hoar"? |
21198 | Do I? |
21198 | Have you, sir; what is the subject? |
21198 | How do you like it? |
21198 | How do you like my picture? |
21198 | How do you like my picture? |
21198 | How goes it with thee, Rosa? |
21198 | How much? |
21198 | How so? |
21198 | How the devil should you know him? |
21198 | Now who the devil has done this? |
21198 | Of what avail is your threat,replied Giotto,"to a man whom you have doomed to death at any rate?" |
21198 | Pray, sir, what is that old man afraid of? |
21198 | Reasons, and good ones,said the artist, laughing;"see-- where could I find such a picture of life as that, unless among the originals of The Cabin?" |
21198 | Subject? 21198 What do you see, sir?" |
21198 | What does this signify, Giotto? |
21198 | Yes,said Blake,"the Virgin Mary appeared to me and told me it was very fine; what can you say to that?" |
21198 | ''Am I to have nothing more than this?'' |
21198 | ''And how goes it with Salvator?'' |
21198 | After a hearty shake of the hand, the boxer turned to his neighbor the chimney- sweep and said,"Why, Dick, do n''t you know this here gentleman? |
21198 | Dante, one day, quizzed him by asking,"Giotto, how is it that you, who make the children of others so beautiful, make your own so ugly?" |
21198 | Have prices risen or fallen?" |
21198 | I have been disappointed hitherto by the deceit of pretended friends-- shall I offend you if I offer myself next election?" |
21198 | Morland wistfully reconnoitered the house, and at length accosted the landlord--"Upon my life, I scarcely knew it: is this the Black Bull?" |
21198 | Once, when pressed about it, he peevishly exclaimed,"How should I know? |
21198 | One day Bonnycastle said to him, after dinner,"Fuseli, you can write well,--why do n''t you write something?" |
21198 | One day, his friend Donatello met him, and asked him,"What kind of work is this of thine, that thou art shutting up so closely?" |
21198 | Ten days had scarcely elapsed before every one who passed by enquired with eager curiosity,"when the picture would be finished?" |
21198 | The grateful painter once waited on the banker, and said,"I have finished the best of all my works-- the Lazar House-- when shall I send it home?" |
21198 | The_ something new_ startled a man whose imagination was none of the brightest, and he said,"How shall I find something new?" |
21198 | When he rose he enquired of Buonamico, if"he had seen more than a thousand demons wandering about his room, as he had himself in the night?" |
21198 | returned the lady,"pray, Mr. Jervas, what is a handsome ear?" |
21198 | what shall I write?" |
21198 | you will drive me mad-- Reynolds and Raffaelle!--a dwarf and a giant!--why will you waste all your fine words?" |
16655 | After Impressionism, what? |
16655 | And if it be novel without being great, how shall we be the better off? |
16655 | And if progress was illusory in some instances, may it not, possibly, have been so in all? |
16655 | But the question occurs: Have we an American school in a more specific sense than this? |
16655 | Did he not say of the"Woman Carrying Water":"I have avoided, as I always do, with a sort of horror, everything that might verge on the sentimental"? |
16655 | Does a room full of American pictures have a different look from a room full of pictures by artists of any other nationality? |
16655 | Does any one care? |
16655 | Has any one else had this power since Michelangelo created his"Adam"? |
16655 | Have we a body of painters with certain traits in common and certain differences from the painters of other countries? |
16655 | Have we produced anything, I will not say greater, but anything as great as the noblest works of Bach and Beethoven? |
16655 | He may have meant them to express that, but do they? |
16655 | How could they succeed? |
16655 | If a man were to rise and recite, with a solemn voice, words like"Ajakan maradak tecor sosthendi,"would you know what he meant? |
16655 | If so much may be taken as proved, the question remains for consideration: What are the characteristics of the American school of painting? |
16655 | Is it not enough that they are beautiful pictures? |
16655 | Is it similarly and equally reasonable to speak of an American school? |
16655 | Is she Nirvana? |
16655 | Is she The Peace of God? |
16655 | Now the form in which volume is most easily apprehended is the cube; do we not measure by it and speak of the cubic contents of anything? |
16655 | Or who, looking at the exquisite landscapes or delicate figure pieces of Weir, would find anything to recall the name of Gérôme? |
16655 | What difference does it make, he asks, whether you draw a head round or square? |
16655 | What would Raphael have thought of such a notion, or that consummate man of the world, Titian? |
16655 | What would the serene and mighty Veronese have thought of it, or the cool, clear- seeing Velazquez? |
16655 | Why do they introduce, in the very midst of a design in which everything else is dislocated, a name or a word in clear Roman letters? |
16655 | Why draw a head at all? |
16655 | Why should not they learn the universal language of art? |
16655 | Why should we? |
18653 | After that what is left? |
18653 | Ah, why was I not a pupil of Ingres? |
18653 | Are you able to name any one who has conceived this beauty of the life of men? |
18653 | But Corot? |
18653 | But how much of our feeling of reverence is inspired by time? |
18653 | But what does the skin matter? |
18653 | Ca n''t they then simply admit such ideas as may occur to the mind in looking at a man doomed to gain his living by the sweat of his brow? |
18653 | Do you mean that you can not get the price you ask? |
18653 | Do you think I send you to the Louvre to find there what people call"le beau idéal,"something which is outside nature? |
18653 | Do you think, when I tell you to copy, that I want to make copyists of you? |
18653 | Has Schwind, with his splendid and varied gifts, ever been able to model a head with a brush? |
18653 | Has he succeeded? |
18653 | I remember Thackeray saying to me, concerning a certain chapter in one of his books that the critics agreed in accusing of carelessness;"Careless? |
18653 | In what club have my critics ever encountered me? |
18653 | Is it natural that a face seen in light should stand out against a really dark background-- that is to say, one which receives no light? |
18653 | Is there not in every artist worthy of the name a something which sees to this naturally and without effort? |
18653 | Of a passion, an emotion, a mood? |
18653 | One drop of rain is as another, and the sun''s prism in all: and shalt not thou be as he, whose lives are the breath of One? |
18653 | Or do you only mean that you are not satisfied with your work? |
18653 | Ought not the light which falls on the figure to fall also on the wall, or the tapestry against which the figure stands? |
18653 | Quite true, but expression of what? |
18653 | Soon we shall be saying,"Who will deliver us from realism?" |

36427 | And what of the struggling artists? |
36427 | And what was the result? |
36427 | But the objects are distinguished by our knowledge and experience, and if we are to eliminate these in one art, why not in another? |
36427 | But where is the Phidian Demeter? |
36427 | Does the impressionist see these things? |
36427 | How can he paint her anointed with ambrosial oil which is ever struggling for freedom to bathe the rolling earth in fragrance? |
36427 | How many artists now would have the patience to make such a mould? |
36427 | If we accept beauty as the expression of emotion, how far have we progressed towards the indicated goal? |
36427 | Let us suppose that a painter could be found who could execute such a figure: how could he isolate it to the mind? |
36427 | Mars may disappear with the wolf, but who can hide the glory of Rome? |
36427 | Now what does this mean? |
36427 | Such was Turner according to Ruskin, but is there any sign of this in his works? |
36427 | There must come a period when the optic or aural nerves can be attuned no further; and is the limit equal in all persons? |
36427 | What human being can appropriately describe the great ideals in art of ancient Greece? |
36427 | What imagination can picture the expansion of art throughout the world had its flight been free since the dawn of history? |
36427 | What is there then to compensate the artist for this limitation? |
36427 | What of these? |
36427 | What was it then that established the eternal fame of her beauty? |
36427 | What were these to do at a time when at the best the outlook was poor? |
36427 | Who would weep when in front of the greatest marvels of Greek sculpture? |
36427 | Why should the artist remember the orgies of Rome, and forget the Grecian pastoral fancies? |
36427 | Why should the dance be turned into a drunken revel? |
36427 | Why trouble about carving in the round when we only actually see in the human figure a flat surface defined by colour? |
36427 | With what other term than"limitless"can we describe the imagination of a Shakespeare? |

8523 | As the_ eyes_[ 1] of the building, what? |
8523 | Azure; a lion( passant?) |
8523 | But now, what opposition is there between their divine natures? |
8523 | Do you see how important the word"Capulet"is becoming to us, in its main idea? |
8523 | Do you see, by the way, how perfectly the image is carried out by Sir Walter in putting his Diana on the border country? |
8523 | Do you suppose I ought to have said carelessly? |
8523 | First, how_ do_ they lie in the quarry? |
8523 | Have you ever considered the infinite functions of protection to mountain form exercised by the mosses and lichens? |

8523 | Is Vasari entirely wrong then? |
8523 | Is it altogether, think you, by blundering, or by disproportion in intellect or in body, that Theseus becomes St. Athanase? |
8523 | Is not that a greater difference, think you, than one of mere decadence? |

8523 | The King answered wisely,"It does not appear to me Arab''s money; you Pisans, what golden money have_ you_ got?" |
8523 | The"long- drawn aisle"is here, indeed,--but where is the"fretted vault"? |

7227 | The servant stops, seeing her so quiet; asking the midwife, Shall I give it her now? |
7227 | Was it, in the first place, to Giotto, think you, the"composition of a scene,"or the conception of a fact? |
7227 | Was there any need for Giotto to have put the priest at the foot of the dead body, with the black banner stooped over it in the shape of a grave? |
7227 | Well, that is really so; and now, will you take the pains to see why? |

11242 | The Pope grew angry, and exclaimed:''It is thirty years that I have cherished this desire, and now that I am Pope, may I not indulge it? |
11242 | Therefore, because I can not shun the blow I rather seek, say who must rule my breast, Gliding between her gladness and her woe? |
11242 | Those amorous thoughts which were so lightly dressed, What are they when the double death is nigh? |
11242 | What claim by right have you on him? |
11242 | What would my arms do in that girdle''s place?_ The second can be ascribed with probability to the year 1534 or 1535. |
11242 | What, for example, occupies Lorenzo''s brain? |
11242 | When I saw him, I said that I did not think it right and seemly for him to be going about in such weather''What do you want?'' |
11242 | Where is the contract? |
11242 | Which do you think Lorenzo loved best, his son or you? |
11242 | Why do you not begin in earnest to make plans for leaving Florence? |
11242 | Why need my aching heart to death aspire, When all must die? |
11242 | Why not an idol worth like this so much? |
11242 | Why should he be interrupted in the full swing of triumphant energy? |
11242 | Why should you force him to take part in those vain pastimes, which his love for a quiet life induces him to shun? |
11242 | Yet, could this brawny man have ever suggested any distinctly religious idea? |
11242 | he whose living lips, that start, Speak eager words? |
11242 | of Caprese; SER BARTOLOMMEO DI SANTI DEL LANSE(? |
11242 | to what extent are you satisfied with him?'' |
11242 | why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?" |
39380 | ''As fine as Van Dyke?'' 39380 ''Do you mean living or dead?'' |
39380 | ''How fine?'' 39380 How shall we speak of him? |
39380 | It is now thirty years,cried Paul III.,"that I have had this desire; and, now that I am pope, shall I not be able to effect it? |
39380 | Was there ever,says Hamerton,"a more exquisitely beautiful instance of self- sacrifice?" |
39380 | ''And the others?'' |
39380 | ''Let us see what thou art carrying away?'' |
39380 | ''What dost thou here, my Elizabeth?'' |
39380 | ''What have you been doing?'' |
39380 | Am I dispensing a curse, or a blessing?" |
39380 | And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?" |
39380 | And what could be better practice?" |
39380 | And what does the raised right hand denote? |
39380 | But Louis would not listen to them; he cut them short, repeating,''How is my dear wife? |
39380 | But how? |
39380 | But of these, who are to be models-- the guides?" |
39380 | By what light? |
39380 | Can we mention a violent act of Raphael''s, Goethe''s, or Shakespeare''s? |
39380 | Could it possibly have been Cecilia, the lady whom Titian married about this time? |
39380 | Did he intend thus to immortalize her, while he immortalized himself? |
39380 | Even had this misfortune not been preceded by a long affection, ought I to show so much hatred as not to be able to pardon a fault against me?... |
39380 | Fuseli, the keeper of the Academy, was much pleased with him, and, looking around the room upon the students, would say,"Where is my little dog boy?" |
39380 | Had she been married to another, all these years? |
39380 | He helped everybody, and what more is there in life than this? |
39380 | He is said to have replied in the words of the Syrian messenger to the prophet Elisha:"Is thy servant a_ dog_, that he should do this great thing?" |
39380 | He seemed at the zenith of his powers when death came; but who shall estimate the value of a life by its length? |
39380 | He would start off alone, or with John( Thomas?) |
39380 | How could Michael Angelo have carved this work at twenty- four? |
39380 | How otherwise shall we name that son of a miller? |
39380 | I wonder what they think the sea''s like? |
39380 | If there is no more pity in this world, to whom shall I apply? |
39380 | In 1726 an artist named Belotti restored(?) |
39380 | Is it possible that Murillo, that servile imitator of my uncle, can be the author of all this grace and beauty of coloring?" |
39380 | Is it the light of the sun? |
39380 | Is this a form fitted to such base mechanical uses? |
39380 | Mightily pleased thereat, it began to reason with itself after this fashion:''Shall I now go back to the shop which I have just quitted? |
39380 | Miss Mackey says, in_ Cornhill_, concerning his last long illness:"Was ever any one more tenderly nursed and cared for? |
39380 | O thou spirit of grace, Where art thou now? |
39380 | One day the artist said to him,"When I die, what wilt thou do?" |
39380 | The artist is said to have once remarked to his friend Chantrey, the sculptor:"Will you promise to see me rolled up in the''Carthage''at my burial?" |
39380 | The canon of the cathedral said to Van Egmont,"Why did your master not come himself?" |
39380 | The husband did not purchase the picture of the artist-- did he not value the beauty? |
39380 | The pope was now fully angry, and exclaimed,"Do you venture to say things to this man which I would not have said to him myself? |
39380 | These are human faces, it is true, but can you imagine any purer, more innocent, more gentle faces?... |
39380 | To whom should he go? |
39380 | What cared he for the bared backs or the spiteful mewlings of her miserable offspring, little cats as they were? |
39380 | What has become of my once brilliant surface? |
39380 | What helps had any of them which we have not?" |
39380 | What prospect was there that this boy, without father or mother, without riches or distinguished family, would work his way to renown? |
39380 | What were they which we are not or may not be? |
39380 | When a school of art arose which aimed at uniting the characteristics of both, what was the result? |
39380 | Where is the contract, that I may tear it?" |

39380 | Who can measure the good that Lorenzo de''Medici was doing for the world unwittingly? |
39380 | Who was Saskia? |
39380 | Who was this new model? |
39380 | Why thank a man for performing a simple duty?'' |
39380 | Why, then, should I thank them? |
39380 | Will you follow us and pray for his sinful soul?'' |
39380 | are they well? |
39380 | how are my children? |
39380 | or of the moon? |
39380 | or of the torches? |
39380 | or was the old affection renewed in these latter days? |
39380 | said the courtier,"does his Most Catholic Majesty''s representative amuse himself with painting?" |
39380 | what would they have? |
23593 | Lo, whet ich se? |
23593 | Turner,_ what_ have you been doing to your picture? |
23593 | Well, but what are we to do? |
23593 | Well, but,you will say,"how can we decide what we ought to buy, but by our likings? |
23593 | What could I have done better? |
23593 | ''"[ 12] Would you have thought the poem improved? |
23593 | And can you really suppose that what has so much power over you in words has no power over you in reality? |
23593 | And if not, why would it be spoiled? |
23593 | And why beautiful? |
23593 | Are you not more accustomed to the ordinary voices of men than to the perfect accents of sweet singing? |
23593 | Are you not much more accustomed to gray whinstone and brown sandstone than you are to rubies or emeralds? |
23593 | But how much of Nature have you in your Greek buildings? |
23593 | But with whom is the fault? |
23593 | Can you for an instant suppose that the architect was a greater or wiser man who built this, than he who built that? |
23593 | Did you read the account of the proceedings at the Crystal Palace at Sydenham the other day? |
23593 | Do you recollect the west window of your own Dunblane Abbey? |
23593 | Do you suppose he studied dogs and eagles out of the Elgin Marbles? |
23593 | Do you think that by any splendor of architecture-- any height of stories-- you can atone to the mind for the loss of the aspect of the roof? |
23593 | Do you think there is any group of words which would thus interest you, when the things expressed by them are uninteresting? |
23593 | First, then, What is the real difference between the principles on which art has been pursued before and since Raphael? |
23593 | For instance, in matters of history, is not the Retreat of the Ten Thousand romantic? |
23593 | For instance, when you spend a guinea upon an engraving, what have you done? |
23593 | Has it ever occurred to you to ask the question, what effect the cottage would have upon your feelings if it had_ no roof_? |
23593 | Have not these words, Pinnacle, Turret, Belfry, Spire, Tower, a pleasant sound in all your ears? |
23593 | How are we to understand these opposing statements?" |
23593 | How did Hogarth rise? |
23593 | How did Reynolds rise? |
23593 | How do you like it? |
23593 | How is this? |
23593 | How many windows precisely of this form do you suppose there are in the New Town of Edinburgh? |
23593 | If you bought some pictures to decorate such a room as this, where would you put them? |
23593 | If you really make up a party of pleasure, and get rid of the forms and fashion of public propriety for an hour or two, where do you go for it? |
23593 | Is it Christian history, or the histories of Pan and Silenus? |
23593 | Is not the death of Leonidas? |
23593 | It is written,"If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not He that pondereth the heart consider it? |
23593 | It may be asked why we are to build only the tops of the windows pointed,--why not follow the leaves, and point them at the bottom also? |
23593 | Not on a level with the chandelier? |
23593 | Now what is the custom of your British Parliament in these days? |
23593 | Now, do you suppose that which is so all- important in a cottage, can be of small importance in your own dwelling- house? |
23593 | Of course it would; but why? |
23593 | On a level with the eye, I suppose, or nearly so? |
23593 | Or, again, what do you suppose was the proclaimed and understood principle of all Christian_ governments_ in the Middle Ages? |
23593 | What are your daughters drawing upon their cardboard screens as soon as they can use a pencil? |
23593 | What do you at present_ mean_ by historical painting? |
23593 | What do you see your children doing, obeying their own natural and true instincts? |
23593 | What do you suppose our descendants will care for our imaginations of the events of former days? |
23593 | What do you suppose was the substance of good education, the education of a knight, in the Middle Ages? |
23593 | What was taught to a boy as soon as he was able to learn anything? |
23593 | What, you would say to me, do you mean to tell us that_ we_ deny Christ? |
23593 | Where do you go to eat strawberries and cream? |
23593 | Who are the men who have made an impression upon you yourselves-- upon your own age? |
23593 | Why, if I were to say the same thing over and over again, for the single hour you are going to let me talk to you, would you listen to me? |
23593 | You would not have us buy what we do n''t like?" |
23593 | [ 38] Do you suppose that was the way the Duke sat when your destinies depended on him? |
23593 | and He that keepeth thy soul, doth not He know it?" |
23593 | and yet will you tell me you think them as beautiful? |
23593 | did you ever see one sunrise like another? |
23593 | does not God vary His clouds for you every morning and every night? |
23593 | is there no physician there?" |
23593 | of the Horatii? |
23593 | or that in the arrangement of these dull and monotonous stones there is more wit and sense than you can penetrate? |
23593 | what would this person, or that, have done under the circumstances? |
23593 | yet do you not instantly declare the song to be loveliest? |
6306 | And about the frescos? |
6306 | And honestly now: I''ll never tell,said Andersen with a sly twinkle in his blue eyes--"did you ever repeat the offense?" |
6306 | And know the value of pictures? |
6306 | And what do you think of it? |
6306 | And you recommended the defendant to buy this picture for two hundred pounds? |
6306 | At least you have your own ideas about values? |
6306 | Do you want to go to jail? |
6306 | Is that your brother? |
6306 | Me? 6306 Mr. Whistler, it is reported that you received a goodly sum for this recommendation-- is there anything in that?" |
6306 | Oho, Simon, what do you think of that? |
6306 | Shall I paint the thing just as I see it? |
6306 | Well, and what are you going to make of William? |
6306 | Who is your favorite author? |
6306 | Would you advise me to take a course in elocution? |
6306 | You see what it is meant for, Simon? |
6306 | And again he might not-- what more idle and fascinating than such speculation? |
6306 | And how about the divine Giorgione who called him father? |
6306 | And since Rembrandt at his best was never surpassed, who could have instructed him? |
6306 | And who is Giorgione? |
6306 | And why should Pacheco not have been pleased? |
6306 | Anyway, Abildgaard used to say, long years after,"What did I tell you?" |
6306 | At last the little girl turned to her mother and said,"Mamma, did you ever see so many bare legs in all the born days of your life?" |
6306 | Aye, was n''t he teaching the lad a trade himself, as it was?" |
6306 | CORREGGIO What genius disclosed all these wonders to thee? |
6306 | Completing, did I say? |
6306 | Did not Thackeray say that the people of England regarded Jehovah as an infinite George the Fourth? |
6306 | Do n''t you know how Rembrandt painted the"Christ at Emmaus"? |
6306 | Do then men love dead women better than they do the living? |
6306 | Do you know the face of Oliver Goldsmith, the droop of the head, the receding chin and the bulging forehead? |
6306 | Gian Bellini? |
6306 | Had I not seen Gian the painter go not half an hour before? |
6306 | Had such loveliness aught to do with life or death? |
6306 | Has Nature only just so much genius at her disposal? |
6306 | Have n''t we overrated this precious gift of authorship just a trifle? |
6306 | Have not some of the great books of the world been written in prison? |
6306 | He smiled and said,"Who is Rose?" |
6306 | How would he know that other men were contemptible, did he not look into his own heart and there see the hateful things? |
6306 | I am only a poor gondolier-- why should I trouble myself about what great folks do? |
6306 | I looked around-- and what do you believe? |
6306 | If Corot saw more than we, why denounce Corot? |
6306 | If he did not believe in himself, how could he make others believe in him? |
6306 | It hears the yelping of the pack, and there creeps in the question,"What if they are right?" |
6306 | Loaves alone are not quite enough-- we want also the bread of life, and the bread of life is love, and did n''t I say that flowers symbol love? |
6306 | Me? |
6306 | Sculptors have carved this lion, painters have painted it, artists have sketched it, but did you ever see a reproduction of"The Lion of Lucerne"? |
6306 | She picked it up and turned the leaves aimlessly; then she opened her Boston bag and slipped the book inside, saying as she did so:"You do not mind?" |
6306 | Should it be the law- school or the studio of Herrera the painter? |
6306 | So they kept on, each one saying,"And what will our folks say tonight?" |
6306 | The cross- examination ran something like this:"You are a painter of pictures?" |
6306 | The question is sometimes asked,"What becomes of all the Valedictorians and Class- Day Poets?" |
6306 | Was ever such an example of concentration, energy and industry known in the history of art? |
6306 | Was she only a thing? |
6306 | Was this the end? |
6306 | What had she done? |
6306 | What kind of a man was Leonardo? |
6306 | When did they begin? |
6306 | Who was she, anyway, that she should thus bare her beauty before such a creature? |
6306 | Would he allow me to ride with His Highness? |
6306 | Would he not kindly comply? |
6306 | Yet since"Hamlet"was never equaled, who could have taught its author how? |
6306 | and"To whom are you going to marry Fanny?" |
6306 | he answered, and then pulling something from under his sash he said,"Is this your cap, signor?" |
6306 | is that the man who felt that he was dying? |
6306 | that the transparent, unearthly thing lying there so prone and pale was dead? |
27939 | After all, is it not often the case with pictures, statues, journeys, and the reading of books? |
27939 | Again, do we not prefer the books which deal with habits simpler than our own? |
27939 | And are we really much refreshed? |
27939 | And what for? |
27939 | And, on the other hand, is not the truth of æsthetics, the bare, hard fact, a very different matter? |
27939 | But decoration of what? |
27939 | But may the whole world sit idly watching the raptures and death- throes of Tristram and Yseult? |
27939 | But since life has got two rhythms, why should art have only one? |
27939 | But what if we_ do not care for white_? |
27939 | But what is to be done? |
27939 | But why not more than merely that? |
27939 | But with what are you going to replace religion itself in art? |
27939 | But_ can_ we? |
27939 | Can we get the full taste of pleasure sought for pleasure''s own sake? |
27939 | Can we put them into an individual life; can anything be put into an individual life save furniture and garments, intellectual as well as material? |
27939 | Do we not love the Odyssey partly because of Calypso weaving in her cave, and Nausicaa washing the clothes with her maidens? |
27939 | Do you remember La Bruyère''s famous description of the peasants under Louis XIV.? |
27939 | Does it free his art from my rather miserable imputation? |
27939 | Does it not lend additional divinity that Christianity should have arisen among peasants and handicraftsmen? |
27939 | Does not this give to Pleasure a certain freedom, a humane character wholly different from the awful, unappeasable tyranny of Pain? |
27939 | For is not pleasing the fancy and exciting the feelings the real, final use of art? |
27939 | Hills and a few cypresses, such as his contemporaries used for background? |
27939 | How may I bring this home, without introducing a sickly atmosphere of decadent art and literature into my valley of the bay- trees? |
27939 | How often have not some of us felt like that; and how much might not those of us who never have, learn, could they learn, from those words of Elia? |
27939 | I say_ call_ ourselves: for can we be sure we really possess them? |
27939 | In what shape shall the various members of our soul proceed on their journey; which forming the van, which the rear and centre? |
27939 | Is it not stupid thus to"blink and shut our apprehension up?" |
27939 | Is this a superstition, a mere myth, perhaps, born of words? |
27939 | It is sad, not for the beasts but for our souls, that, since we must kill beasts for food( though may not science teach a cleaner, more human diet?) |
27939 | Might one not search long for a better symbol of what we may all do by our life? |
27939 | Nay, if those grumous and speckly viscosities of evil green, orange, poppy purple, and nameless hues, are the only things which give us any pleasure? |
27939 | Nay, worse, is it not positively heartless, brutal? |
27939 | Or shall there be neither van, nor rear, nor wedge- like forward flight? |
27939 | Some Tuscan scene, think you? |
27939 | The future? |
27939 | The persons who maintained just now( and who does not feel a hard- hearted Philistine for gainsaying them?) |
27939 | To put into their pockets or, like Marshall Villeroi("a- t- on mis de l''or dans mes poches? |
27939 | To whom? |
27939 | We may put beautiful objects, dignified manners, harmonious colours and shapes, but can we put dignity, harmony, or beauty? |
27939 | Whither are we going? |
27939 | Why else are certain things_ those which have to be done_; whence otherwise such expressions as_ social duties_ and_ keeping up one''s position_? |
27939 | Why so? |
27939 | With what, I ventured to ask just now, are you going to fill the place of religion in art? |
27939 | Would it not be worth while to reorganise this diet of ideas? |
27939 | You say we are abnormal, unwholesome, decaying; very good, then why should we not get pleasure in decaying, unwholesome, and abnormal things? |
27939 | or is it, seen in some wider connection, even like that clumsy glass inkstand in the oak panelled and brocade hung room?" |
13395 | And what about discrimination? |
13395 | Picasso? |
13395 | What about the very meaning of the word? |
13395 | What are its consequences? |
13395 | What is the cause of French conventionality? |
13395 | Why am I doing it? |
13395 | ( Whom can he mean?) |
13395 | Again: if rules were made by pedants for pedants, must not mere lawlessness be a virtue? |
13395 | Also, so cosmopolitan is Paris, there were those who would put in the query:"Et Picasso?" |
13395 | And did Mr. Epstein see Him with the eyes of one who knew what for ages Christ had meant to Europe, or with those of a Jew of the first century? |
13395 | And how is his emotion to be kept at white heat through the long, cold days of formal construction? |
13395 | And how many Frenchmen do know anything? |
13395 | And now come the inevitable questions-- where were these things made, and when? |
13395 | And of Flandrin-- what has become of him? |
13395 | And we, ourselves, did we never despise what to- day we adore? |
13395 | And what of Delaunay? |
13395 | And what shall I say of the home- grown article? |
13395 | And, I will add, could anyone be less_ gavroche_? |
13395 | Are we, then, to assume that there is no connection between art and civilization? |
13395 | But a great painter? |
13395 | But at what moment did his dissent become acute, and to what extent was he aware from the first of its existence? |
13395 | But had it really changed so much as we? |
13395 | But how, said they, should deep call to deep in Alexandrines and a pseudo- classical convention, to say nothing of full- bottomed wigs? |
13395 | But if, as I am told, we all owe money to America, has not America acquired, along with her financial supremacy, certain moral obligations? |
13395 | But is even this a serious misfortune? |
13395 | But were not European Primitives and Buddhists similarly bound, and did they not contrive to circumvent their doctrinal limitations? |
13395 | But what English painter could conceive and effectively carry out a work of art? |
13395 | But what does he want this genius of his to do? |
13395 | But who ever thought of going there to look for a work of art? |
13395 | Can he create something that shall be uncompromising as art and at the same time humane? |
13395 | Can he do what Raphael and Racine did? |
13395 | Could anyone be less of a reactionary and at the same time less of an anarchist? |
13395 | Could anyone be moved by the verisimilitude of Uccello? |
13395 | Did ever Frenchmen sympathize absolutely with Don Quixote? |
13395 | Do they? |
13395 | He will pose the question--"Why is Milton a great poet?" |
13395 | How many mute, inglorious Miltons, Raphaels, and Mozarts may not have lost heart and gone under in the savage insecurity of the dark ages? |
13395 | How shall we explain his enthusiasm for Macpherson''s fraud? |
13395 | How should that race which above all others understands and revels in life care for an art of abstractions? |
13395 | How should they love anything so uncongenial to their temperament? |
13395 | How, having raised good sense to the power of genius, should France quite approve æsthetic fanaticism? |
13395 | Is it a mistake to find him intolerable now? |
13395 | It is one the answer to which must depend a good deal on our answer to that old and irritating query-- is beauty absolute? |
13395 | Niggers can be admired artists without any gifts more singular than high spirits; so why drag in the intellect? |
13395 | Now such questions lead inevitably to an immense query--"What is Art?" |
13395 | On the other hand, those who queried:"Et Bonnard?" |
13395 | Only, can we recognize it? |
13395 | So why, because he happened to have an astonishing gift of statement and rapid generalization, should Zola be treated as though he were a monster? |
13395 | So, if an artist happens also to be a Frenchman-- and the combination is admirably common-- what is he to do? |
13395 | The protagonists of the heroic epoch( 1904--1914 shall we say?) |
13395 | This is plain speaking; how else should a critic, who believes that he has diagnosed the disease, convince a modern patient of his parlous state? |
13395 | To be sure there was Shakespeare and the celebrated Hugo-- or was it Gambetta? |
13395 | Was Christ intelligent or was He something nobler, and what has Mr. Epstein to say about it? |
13395 | Was He disdainful or was He sympathetic? |
13395 | Was He like Mr. Bertrand Russell or more like Mr. Gladstone? |
13395 | Was he really a great painter? |
13395 | Was it a mistake in 1890 to rave about Wagner? |
13395 | We contemplate the object, we experience the appropriate emotion, and then we begin asking"Why?" |
13395 | Were they really born to be painters? |
13395 | What could be more orderly? |
13395 | What engine is to generate the heat and make taut the energies by which alone significant form can be created? |
13395 | What has become of Chabaud, who was a bit too clever, and a little vulgar even? |
13395 | What is it Derain wants of them? |
13395 | What is the meaning of this? |
13395 | What matters, however, are not theories, but works: so what of the works of Jazz? |
13395 | What of critical practice? |
13395 | What shall he do? |
13395 | What would Poussin have said to so passionate a negation of common sense? |
13395 | What, for instance, is the history of his relations with Impressionism? |
13395 | Who but feels that Wilson, Blake, Reynolds, Turner, and Rossetti were remarkable men? |
13395 | Yet when I ask myself:"Is Ibsen''s moralizing worse than anyone else''s?" |
13395 | and"How?" |
13395 | and,"What was His character?" |
19980 | But who wantonly destroys it? |
19980 | She is more precious than rubies--but do you think that is only because she will help you to buy rubies? |
19980 | A certain quantity of able hands and heads being placed at our disposal, what shall we most advisably set them upon? |
19980 | A fine prosperous business that would be, would it not? |
19980 | And do not you see what a pretty and pleasant come- off there is for most of us, in this spiritual application? |
19980 | Behold, is it not of the Lord of Hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?" |
19980 | But because you can not be Handel and Mozart-- is it any reason why you should not learn to sing"God save the Queen"properly, when you have a mind to? |
19980 | But do you suppose that it is the law of God, or nature, that people shall be paid in money for becoming wiser and happier? |
19980 | But far more than all this, is it a question not of clothes or weapons, but of men? |
19980 | But you do n''t suppose that_ that''s_ goldsmith''s work? |
19980 | Can it be Liberality then? |
19980 | Can you guess what? |
19980 | Can you guess which it is likely to be? |
19980 | Christ,--no cure, No help for women, sobbing out of sight Because men made the laws? |
19980 | Do you mean that the laws of all civilised nations are perfect? |
19980 | Do you suppose it is in the long run good for Manchester, or good for England, that the Continent should be in the state it is? |
19980 | Do you think that is only because she will enable you to get all the things you desire? |
19980 | Do you think that, by learning to draw, and looking at flowers, you will ever get the ability to design a piece of lace beautifully? |
19980 | Hast thou found No remedy, my England, for such woes? |
19980 | Have n''t we built a perfectly beautiful gallery for all the pictures we have to take care of?" |
19980 | Have you nothing best, Which generous souls may perfect and present, And He shall thank the givers for? |
19980 | How do you distinguish between great and small sins? |
19980 | How high can we raise the level of a diffused Learning and Morality? |
19980 | I can not stay now to dispute that, though I would willingly; but do you think it is_ still_ necessary for that development? |
19980 | If they all choose to have lace too-- if it ceases to be a prize-- it becomes, does it not, only a cobweb? |
19980 | Is it a question of classical dress-- what a tunic was like, or a chlamys, or a peplus? |
19980 | Is n''t your shilling''s worth the best bargain? |
19980 | Is your courage spent In handwork only? |
19980 | It may be very amusing now, and look much like a work of genius; but what will be its value a hundred years hence? |
19980 | No cure for wicked children? |
19980 | No hope for Rome, free France, chivalric France? |
19980 | No mercy for the slave, America? |
19980 | No outlet, Austria, for the scourged and bound, No call back for the exiled? |
19980 | No pity, O world, no tender utterance Of benediction, and prayers stretched this way For poor Italia, baffled by mischance? |
19980 | Or what other means of judgment will you employ, to separate the things which ought to be formally regulated from the things which ought not? |
19980 | Or, waiving this, is it not indisputable that the claim of the State to the allegiance, involves the protection of the subject? |
19980 | Should it, for instance, as in Greece, be of physical beauty,--emulation,( Hesiod''s second Eris),--pugnacity, and patriotism? |
19980 | So that the first question of a good art- economist respecting any work is, Will it lose its flavour by keeping? |
19980 | Suppose all the gossamer were Nottingham- made, would a sensible spider be either prouder, or happier, think you? |
19980 | That you might tread upon them, and starve them, and get the better of them in every possible way? |
19980 | Well then, supposing we wish to employ it, how is it to be best discovered and refined? |
19980 | Well, supposing them sculptors, will not the same rule hold? |
19980 | Well, who made him more persevering or more sagacious than others? |
19980 | Were we any the better of the course of affairs in''48? |
19980 | What can he do, but go and lay it on his mother''s grave? |
19980 | What can we do, if we would? |
19980 | What do you suppose I mean by a pretty fancy? |
19980 | What do you suppose fools were made for? |
19980 | What is it to him, if the angels of Assisi fade from its vaults, or the queens and kings of Chartres fall from their pedestals? |
19980 | What must we do, whether we will or not? |
19980 | What shall he do with it? |
19980 | What should we do with houses in Verona?" |
19980 | Where is the product of that work? |
19980 | Why are your carriages nicely painted and finished outside? |
19980 | Why are your exteriors of houses so well finished, your furniture so polished and costly, but for other people to see? |
19980 | Why is one man richer than another? |
19980 | Would you not at once assert of such a mistress that she knew nothing of her duties? |
19980 | Would you not say that the prudent and kind young lady was, on the whole, answerable for the additional touches of claw on the Vandykes? |
19980 | Yes, gentlemen of the common council; but what has been doing in the time of the transfer? |
19980 | Yet surely a spider is clever enough for his own ends? |
19980 | You do n''t think that it would be convenient, or even creditable, for women to wash the doorsteps or dish the dinners in lace gowns? |
19980 | You will( I hope) finally ask me what is the outcome of all this, practicable tomorrow morning by us who are sitting here? |
19980 | _ R._--Or that they are perfect at least in their discrimination of what crimes they should deal with, and what crimes they should let alone? |
19980 | _ R._--What_ do_ you mean, then? |
19980 | and how far shall we be compelled, if we limit, to exaggerate, the advantages and injuries of our system? |
19980 | no brothel- lure Burnt out by popular lightnings? |
19980 | no light Of teaching, liberal nations, for the poor, Who sit in darkness when it is not night? |
19980 | no repose, Russia for knouted Poles worked underground, And gentle ladies bleached among the snows? |
19980 | or has the stabling of the dragoon horses in the great houses of Italy any distinct effect in the promotion of the cotton- trade? |
19980 | or, as in modern England, of physical ugliness,--envy,( Hesiod''s first Eris),--cowardice, and selfishness? |
19980 | test of good, will it please a century hence? |
19980 | you will say,"are we not to produce any new art, nor take care of our parish churches?" |
19980 | you will say,"when do we do such things? |
20237 | Is he employed in the service of the Grand Cophte? |
20237 | What else do you see? |
20237 | ''Are you not tired of those eternal robes? |
20237 | ''But did it make you laugh?'' |
20237 | ''Do you think, sir, that I ought to be a pupil to anybody?'' |
20237 | ''Hee zays zo, does hee? |
20237 | ''How can you talk such trash, Cosway?'' |
20237 | ''How did you like the play?'' |
20237 | ''Is English wet weather one of the things which we would desire to see art give perpetuity to?'' |
20237 | ''Shall I give you an account of it?'' |
20237 | ''The nose? |
20237 | ''True, sire,''answered the painter;''but does your Majesty keep an open table as I do?'' |
20237 | ''Well, Verrio,''the king inquired,''what is your request?'' |
20237 | ''Were the articles authentic?'' |
20237 | ''What do you know,''he was asked,''of the Prince of Wales, that he so often speaks of you?'' |
20237 | ''What has the Academy done for me?'' |
20237 | ''Who''s to teach''ee here? |
20237 | ''Will hee? |
20237 | ''Yes,''Northcote answered;''but how am I to paint the sound of dump, dump, dump?'' |
20237 | ''[ 25] But was Mr. Ruskin in any better plight? |
20237 | ''[ 26][ 25]''What can I say of the Napoleon of Mr. Turner? |
20237 | A bystander inquires what has become of the nose of the bust? |
20237 | And Macpherson? |
20237 | And after painting all his Whig friends and associates, what was he to do? |
20237 | And then the difficult question arises: when is he to assert his independence? |
20237 | And then why, was indignantly asked, why had the artist arranged the portraits so cruelly? |
20237 | And was he a male coquette? |
20237 | And what claims upon society had the man who chose to conduct himself towards it after this manner? |
20237 | And what did she think of his art? |
20237 | And why do they assume these forms? |
20237 | At this juncture his father abruptly entered the room, crying out,''You play Jaffier, Tom? |
20237 | At what period in his career is he to cease leaning on his teacher, and to pursue his own devices unaided and alone? |
20237 | Boswell?) |
20237 | But is this for a moment sustainable? |
20237 | But to live? |
20237 | But what could he do? |
20237 | Could one man only have art abilities and ambitions, and make for himself the opportunity to employ and gratify them? |
20237 | Did_ she_ ever stand before his easel and contemplate his works? |
20237 | Do you think he was overawed by_ they_? |
20237 | Dr. Blair wrote in defence,''Could any man, of modern age, have written such poems?'' |
20237 | For when there arose a cry of''Who wrote Sir Joshua''s discourses, if not Burke?'' |
20237 | Harley?'' |
20237 | He was then asked which was his favourite recitation in Milton? |
20237 | How the devil should we distinguish the works of the ancients if they were perfect? |
20237 | How to live? |
20237 | In short, I can think of no reason in the world against your going there but one:_ do you know his youngest brother?_? |
20237 | In short, I can think of no reason in the world against your going there but one:_ do you know his youngest brother?_? |
20237 | In society he was a power; for could he not by means of his pencil bestow, as it were, a certificate of beauty upon whom he would? |
20237 | Is it well to watch them like Turner? |
20237 | Is not the comparison impressive? |
20237 | May, then, clouds be formed of minute hollow globules of water swimming in the air, balloon- like? |
20237 | Messieurs ACADEMICIANS, when you''re dead, Where can your impudences hope to go? |
20237 | Mr. Ruskin asks two questions only--''Are these works accurate renderings of nature, as I by education and study now know nature to be?'' |
20237 | Northcote, pray how long do you devote to the duties of the toilet?'' |
20237 | Patronized by the Prince of Wales, what could he do but imitate his patron-- who was nothing if not''dressy?'' |
20237 | Poor human nature, when wilt thou come to years of discretion?'' |
20237 | See what it is to gain a monarch''s smile, And hast thou missed it, REYNOLDS, all this while? |
20237 | Should they submit, serve where they had once ruled, sink into simple Fellows, and thus, as it were, grace the triumph of their foes? |
20237 | The diving[ divining?] |
20237 | The plays performed were_ The Wedding Day_, and_ Who''s the Dupe?_ Lawrence represented Lord Rakeland in the one, and Grainger in the other. |
20237 | These and a hundred other questions; and what is the use of asking them? |
20237 | To be merely a foil? |
20237 | To which did he incline? |
20237 | Was n''t he the Prince''s painter? |
20237 | Was_ he_ any nearer the painter''s meaning? |
20237 | What are clouds? |
20237 | What care I for the nose?'' |
20237 | What could have induced simple- minded Mr. De Loutherbourg to put trust in this arch- juggler? |
20237 | What does he live upon? |
20237 | What had a painter to do with politics? |
20237 | What is a picture of Ramsay or Romney now worth? |
20237 | What is he to do? |
20237 | What need of further holocausts? |
20237 | What says he of himself? |
20237 | What was all this to Runciman? |
20237 | What was now to be their course? |
20237 | What zort of peinter?'' |
20237 | Who cares about Agandecca,''with red eyes of tears''--''with loose and raven locks?'' |
20237 | Who knows anything now about Catholda, and Corban Cargloss, and Golchossa and Cairbar of the gloomy brow? |
20237 | Who reads Ossian now? |
20237 | Who was Laguerre? |
20237 | Who was Verrio? |
20237 | Why is the soft, level, floating, white mist so heavy? |
20237 | Why should you want to know what he did n''t?'' |
20237 | Will you be so friendly as to come and sit an hour with me in the evening?'' |
20237 | Will you have the kindness to lend me an umbrella?'' |
20237 | Would he be a player or a painter? |
20237 | Your vather is n''t a moneyed man, is he?'' |
20237 | _ Was_ he unappreciated? |
20237 | and next,''Are these high art in its purest, and most ideal, and most godly form?'' |
20237 | asks Hazlitt; and he answers his own question--''What matter? |
20237 | cried Garrick,''was Shakespeare marked with mulberries?'' |
20237 | does Northcote keep a dog? |
20237 | he exclaimed, afterwards telling the story,''what could I say? |
20237 | he would ask petulantly;''they knighted Calcott, why do n''t they knight me?'' |
20237 | his favourite exclamation in his west country dialect,''what, is it_ you_? |
20237 | or to neglect them with Claude, Salvator, Ruysdael, Wouvermans, never to look nor portray? |
20237 | the long legs and the flying draperies? |
20237 | what''s he tu du here? |
20237 | who would give it? |
7291 | And do you suppose you will lose anything by approaching your conventional art from this higher side? |
7291 | And if so, when the new style is invented, what is to be done next? |
7291 | And in that state what should we call ourselves? |
7291 | And still, I ask you, What after this? |
7291 | And what do you suppose dyes your tiles of cottage roof? |
7291 | And where has that French school its origin? |
7291 | And, again, I ask-- Are you of use to any one? |
7291 | Are we even sure of ourselves? |
7291 | Are we met here as honest people? |
7291 | But did you ever see either young or old amused by the architrave of the door? |
7291 | But if you wish to design them yourselves, how do you do it? |
7291 | But what meaning has the iron railing? |
7291 | But when you are fairly_ at_ the work, what is the motive then which tells upon every touch of it? |
7291 | Can you do as much by your group of lines? |
7291 | Can you remember any in which architectural proportions contributed to the entertainment of the evening? |
7291 | Do we know what we are about? |
7291 | Do you suppose it was only going on in the time of David, and that nobody but Jews ever murder the poor? |
7291 | Does your art lead you, or your gain lead you? |
7291 | Egyptian ornament? |
7291 | Finally, I ask, Can you be of_ Use_ to any one? |
7291 | Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread? |
7291 | Have you ever considered, in speaking as we do so often of distant blue hills, what it is that makes them blue? |
7291 | Here''s a bit of first- rate work for example:"Tweed said to Till,''What gars ye rin sae still?'' |
7291 | How can such a thing be asked? |
7291 | How did you determine the breadth of the border and relative size of the numerals? |
7291 | How did you determine the number of figures you would put into the neckerchief? |
7291 | How did you fix the number? |
7291 | How many mills do we want? |
7291 | I proceed then farther to ask, Can you inform anybody? |
7291 | I will grant you this Eldorado of imagination-- but can you have more than one Columbus? |
7291 | Is it not strange to find this stern and strong metal mingled so delicately in our human life, that we can not even blush without its help? |
7291 | Is there anything in common life too mean,--in common too trivial,--to be ennobled by your touch? |
7291 | Is there not something striking in this fact, considered largely as one of the types, or lessons, furnished by the inanimate creation? |
7291 | Is this, then, what you want? |
7291 | May we not advisedly look into this matter a little, even tonight, and ask first, Who are these poor? |
7291 | Men? |
7291 | Might we not justly be looked upon with suspicion and fear, rather than with sympathy, by the innocent and unartistical public? |
7291 | Now, do we ever ask ourselves what the real meaning of these passages may be, and who these wicked people are, who are"murdering the innocent?" |
7291 | Now, is that the kind of thing you want to come to everywhere? |
7291 | On the other hand-- Is your money first with you, and your fame first with you? |
7291 | Or otherwise interested in the proportions of the room than as they admitted more or fewer friendly faces? |
7291 | Or shall there be no limitations? |
7291 | Or, again, do you recollect Orcagna''s tabernacle in the church of San Michele, at Florence? |
7291 | Or, if you sail in company, and divide the prize of your discovery and the honour thereof, who is to come after you clustered Columbuses? |
7291 | Or, lastly, do you think the man who designed the procession on the portal of Amiens was the subordinate workman? |
7291 | Or, must every architect invent a little piece of the new style, and all put it together at last like a dissected map? |
7291 | Phidias, Michael Angelo, Orcagna, Pisano, Giotto,--which of these men, do you think, could not use his chisel? |
7291 | Raphael''s arabesques; are they not? |
7291 | Tell me, then, first of all, what ornamental work is usually put before our students as the type of decorative perfection? |
7291 | That is all simple and comprehensive enough-- but what is it to come to? |
7291 | That would be some loss to you; would it not? |
7291 | The question was not now with him, What can I represent? |
7291 | The test is absolute, inevitable-- Is your art first with you? |
7291 | Then, if they can not touch, or inspire, or comfort any one, can your architectural proportions amuse any one? |
7291 | What is given the student as next to Raphael''s work? |
7291 | What think you of that for a school of design? |
7291 | What will you have? |
7291 | Where, then, is your difference? |
7291 | Why are there no more lines? |
7291 | Why are there two lines outside of the border, and one only inside? |
7291 | Why did you put the double blots at the corners? |
7291 | Why lines at all to separate the barbarous figures; and why, if lines at all, not double or treble instead of single? |
7291 | Why not at the angles of the chequers,--or in the middle of the border? |
7291 | Why not three and two, or three and five? |
7291 | Will you then tell me precisely where the separation exists between one and the other? |
7291 | Will your architectural proportions do as much? |
7291 | Will your proportions of the façade heal the sick, or clothe the naked? |
7291 | Will, you, then, design the profiles of these mouldings yourselves, or will you copy them? |
7291 | Would you advise him, if he asked your advice, to give up his wood- blocks and take to canvas? |
7291 | Yes: and do you suppose you will find the Christian less human? |
7291 | You are going straight at it at present; and I have only to ask under what limitations I am to conceive or describe your final success? |
7291 | and whether those rude chequers of the tartan, or the exquisitely fancied involutions of the Cashmere, fold habitually over the noblest hearts? |
7291 | are they prophets, saints, priests, or kings? |
7291 | but, How high can I build-- how wonderfully can I hang this arch in air, or weave this tracery across the clouds? |
7291 | how bring it down into patterns, and all that you are called upon as operatives to produce? |
7291 | how make it the means of your livelihood, and associate inferior branches of art with this great art? |
7291 | or do we indeed want no end of mills? |
7291 | to what fortunate islands of style are your architectural descendants to sail, avaricious of new lands? |
7291 | where is all this going on? |
45504 | A good land here; but what is there to come, where Art begins? |
45504 | A tailor? |
45504 | Ah, when will the power of it cease? |
45504 | And how should we know what ought to be, and what ought not to be, in our model, if we are ignorant of his or her construction? |
45504 | And why not? |
45504 | And yet, what does it matter in the end what we have to do in order to keep up the life, if the life is devoted to the thought? |
45504 | And, after all, what does it matter whether people say we are like So- and- so or not, if we are doing our very best? |
45504 | Are those eyes exactly like the eyes of the one you love or mourn for? |
45504 | Are you a gardener? |
45504 | As for the other class, do they help the work done, or that has to be done? |
45504 | But to believers, what is it but a continuation of everlasting joy? |
45504 | But to the hopeless, or spirits who can not rest upon a hope, what are the pleasures of time but days spent in a condemned cell to the doomed? |
45504 | But what made critics of this class? |
45504 | But what of all that? |
45504 | But who can grow affectionate over''plates of iron''? |
45504 | Can the painter do any better than imitate the street showman with the three colours? |
45504 | Can the_ wish_ engender power? |
45504 | Could any man want to paint better? |
45504 | Did Milton look the poet to Cromwell that he is to us? |
45504 | Did they look like mice peeping in and out as she tripped( limped) along according to the poet? |
45504 | Did they not comfort you more then than now when you know what they really are, as you watched them grow moist with their great sympathy? |
45504 | Did you ever see the like of that?'' |
45504 | Do moths add to the value of clothes? |
45504 | Do the waves and the winds claim a unity with the ship now as they did then? |
45504 | Do you want the cold clay that is lying under the senseless stones, or the spirit which is hovering about you still? |
45504 | Does not the painter paint his picture to be seen, and can anyone admire the modesty that will not hold it up to the passer- by? |
45504 | For instance, if we are eating something nice, is it no longer nice if our neighbour says it is not? |
45504 | For what? |
45504 | From what? |
45504 | Has the painter, in letting go the exact facsimile, not given you something beyond and better-- the motion and soul of that cornfield? |
45504 | Have I made it? |
45504 | Have I made it? |
45504 | How, then, ought we to do it? |
45504 | If it was delicate, refined, bold, masterly before, how could it be vulgar, coarse, or commonplace afterwards? |
45504 | In summer, ay, or in winter either, are we warmer gloved or ungloved on a winter day? |
45504 | Is Whistler wrong in his mode of expressing himself? |
45504 | Is it a sign of ignorance to frankly confess that this sort of thing is beyond you? |
45504 | Is it a_ dead_ or a_ living_ portrait of the corn- ears? |
45504 | Is it not a good land to poet, painter, utilitarian, agnostic, and devotionalist? |
45504 | Is it not all equally pitiful in its progression as we watch the stages? |
45504 | Is it red, blue, green, orange, purple, yellow, or gems and sparkles of fire? |
45504 | Is it subtlety to mask over your meaning with words? |
45504 | Is it the heat fumes which are growing denser as the day advances? |
45504 | Is it the sound of the instruments we are listening to? |
45504 | Is the painted cornfield exactly like the cornfields you have seen? |
45504 | Is this not a better picture than their-- consumptive saints?'' |
45504 | It seems perfect, can I wonder that it is not understood? |
45504 | Shall we alter what nature has done so well, introduce our poor little rules, and tailorise the picture until it stands reproachless? |
45504 | Take what you please, as an example,--a street scene crowded with people,--what is it to the looker out of a window? |
45504 | The noble path of honour is pointed out, and we glow as we read, with the desire to follow: what sermon could teach us more? |

8710 | And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, and said unto them, Why sleep ye? |
8710 | And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? |
8710 | And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this? |
8710 | And when the messengers turned back unto him, he said unto them, Why are ye now turned back? |
8710 | And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? |
8710 | Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers? |
8710 | Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle? |
8710 | Behold now this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither( is it not a little one?) |
8710 | But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? |
8710 | But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor? |
8710 | For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away? |
8710 | Hath no man condemned thee? |
8710 | Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to herself, Have they not sped? |
8710 | If I should say, I have hope, if I should have a husband also to night, and should also bear sons; would ye tarry for them till they were grown? |
8710 | If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? |
8710 | Is not this the carpenter''s son? |
8710 | Is not this written in the book of Jasher? |
8710 | Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? |
8710 | Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed- nego? |
8710 | Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? |
8710 | Seest thou not how much he eateth and drinketh every day? |
8710 | Shall we give, or shall we not give? |
8710 | The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long in coming? |
8710 | The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep from whence then hast thou that living water? |
8710 | Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? |
8710 | Then said Boaz unto Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? |
8710 | Then said Boaz unto his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose damsel is this? |
8710 | Then said his sister to Pharaoh''s daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee? |
8710 | Then said the high priest, Are these things so? |
8710 | Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? |
8710 | Then said they, What shall be the trespass offering which we shall return to him? |
8710 | Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? |
8710 | Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so? |
8710 | When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman where are those thine accusers? |
8710 | When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom of Israel? |
8710 | Whence then hath this man all these things? |
8710 | Wherefore then do ye harden your hearts, as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? |
8710 | Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbor unto him that fell among the thieves? |
8710 | Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not? |
8710 | Who said, Canst thou speak Greek? |
8710 | Why tarry the wheels of his chariots? |
8710 | after whom dost thou pursue? |
8710 | and his brethren James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? |
8710 | and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? |
8710 | and why is thy countenance fallen? |
8710 | are there yet any more sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands? |
8710 | did not I serve with thee for Rachel? |
8710 | do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up? |
8710 | is not his mother called Mary? |
8710 | or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? |
8710 | or, Why talkest thou with her? |
8710 | tell me, I pray thee; is there room in thy father''s house for us to lodge in? |
8710 | tell me, what shall thy wages be? |
8710 | that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
8710 | when he had wrought wonderfully among them, did they not let the people go, and they departed? |
8710 | wherefore then hast thou beguiled me? |
8710 | who? |
8710 | wist ye not that I must be about my father''s business? |
8710 | would ye stay for them from having husbands? |
16917 | ; they need ask only,Do I feel this?" |
16917 | Are you forgetting about colour? |
16917 | --than to ask and answer the question,"Do I feel this to be good or true or beautiful?" |
16917 | And do not the Impressionists, with their power of creating works of art that stand on their own feet, bear in their arms a new age? |
16917 | And during those long years how has Degas lived? |
16917 | And if the form that provokes aesthetic emotion be form that expresses something, can it be that material beauty is to him expressive? |
16917 | And ought we not to add that sometimes the sense of reality comes we know not whence? |
16917 | And when it is for an emotional quality, to what extent is that emotion aesthetic? |
16917 | And, if so, does he not perceive that he has given away his case? |
16917 | Are they, or are they not, a signature? |
16917 | Are we in the period of a new incubation? |
16917 | Are we to suppose, then, that the artist feels, or sometimes feels, for material beauty what we feel for a work of art? |
16917 | Are we to swallow it whole, accept a part of it, or reject it altogether? |
16917 | Art, we hope, serious, alive, and independent is knocking at the door, and we are impelled to ask"What will come of it?" |
16917 | As for the eggs,--why that''s God business: and who wants omelettes when he can have cooking? |
16917 | Before we feel an aesthetic emotion for a combination of forms, do we not perceive intellectually the rightness and necessity of the combination? |
16917 | Between Cézanne and another Tate Gallery, what lies in store for the human spirit? |
16917 | But do n''t they come at it sometimes through imagined form? |
16917 | But for objects seen as ends in themselves, do we not feel a profounder and a more thrilling emotion than ever we felt for them as means? |
16917 | But how are our ediles to know whether a picture of a commoner, or of some inanimate and undistinguished object, by Degas or Cézanne is good or bad? |
16917 | But how comes it that the art of one age differs from that of another? |
16917 | But in expert conclaves who has ever heard more than a perfunctory and silly comment on the aesthetic qualities of a masterpiece? |
16917 | But is pure form the only channel through which anyone can come at this mysterious emotion? |
16917 | But is that so? |
16917 | But what power was to destroy a machine that had enslaved men so completely that they dared not conceive an alternative? |
16917 | But who can set a mark against the exact point of change? |
16917 | But why is it impossible to make an absolutely exact copy? |
16917 | But, after all, does it matter to me? |
16917 | By what sign shall the public recognise the man of sensibility, always supposing that it is a man of sensibility the public wants? |
16917 | By whom was it made? |
16917 | Can it be that sometimes for the artist material beauty is somehow significant-- that is, capable of provoking aesthetic emotion? |
16917 | Can we by any means thwart the parents, the teachers, and the systems of education that turn children into modern men and women? |
16917 | Can we induce the multitude to seek in art, not edification, but exaltation? |
16917 | Can we make them unashamed of the emotion they feel for the fine lines of a warehouse or a railway bridge? |
16917 | Can we not all imagine the sort of man that would be chosen? |
16917 | Can we save the artist that is in almost every child? |
16917 | Can we say honestly that we feel one to be better than the other? |
16917 | Could anything be more commonplace? |
16917 | Do you think my men will get a single vote? |
16917 | Does anyone feel the same kind of emotion for a butterfly or a flower that he feels for a cathedral or a picture? |
16917 | Does he feel something behind it as we imagine that we feel something behind the forms of a work of art? |
16917 | Does it seem to lose its value? |
16917 | FOOTNOTES:[ Footnote 23: Need I say that this list is not intended to be exhaustive? |
16917 | For how many years after the maturity of Cézanne will painters continue to produce chromophotographs? |
16917 | For what, then, does the artist feel the emotion that he is supposed to express? |
16917 | For whom was it made? |
16917 | For, after all, what is a rose? |

16917 | How much will it fetch at Christie''s? |
16917 | II ART AND SOCIETY What might Art do for Society? |
16917 | If Mr. Moore is to infer the goodness of one state of mind from his feelings, why should not someone else infer the goodness of another from his? |
16917 | In that moment has he not won from material beauty a thrill indistinguishable from that which art gives? |
16917 | In the guise of what grisly and incomprehensible charlatan is art being presented to the people? |
16917 | In the last part of this chapter, when I try to answer the question--"Why are we so profoundly moved by some combinations of lines and colours?" |
16917 | Is Cézanne the beginning of a slope, a portent, or merely the crest of a movement? |
16917 | Is bread good as an end or as a means? |
16917 | Is it a new slope that we are on, or are we merely part of a surprisingly vigorous premonitory flutter? |
16917 | Is it all the work of one hand? |
16917 | Is it not simpler to use different words? |
16917 | Is it possible that the answer to my question,"Why are we so profoundly moved by certain combinations of lines and colours?" |
16917 | Is it too much to ask that others should be as honest about their feelings for pictures as I have been about mine for music? |
16917 | Is life itself good as an end? |
16917 | Let us ask ourselves, bluntly, can that which has no mind and affects no mind have value? |
16917 | My lord is lascivious? |
16917 | My lord is majestic? |
16917 | Need I add that in the snuggest age of materialism great artists may arise and flourish? |
16917 | On the bounty of the people who love all things beautiful, or on the intelligence and discrimination of a few rich or richish patrons? |
16917 | Or is the new age born? |
16917 | PICASSO 251 I WHAT IS ART? |
16917 | Possibly; but dare one of you suggest that in competition with any rubbishy sensation- monger either of them will stand a chance? |
16917 | Seriously, is the common- sense view ever the right one? |
16917 | Shall he not give a hint as to the nature of his organisation, and ease the way for our aesthetic emotions? |
16917 | Suppose the answer favourable, there remains another--"Is it genuine?" |
16917 | Surely whoever appreciates a fine work of art may be allowed the exquisite pleasure of supposing that he has made a discovery? |
16917 | THE METAPHYSICAL HYPOTHESIS[ Illustration: PERSIAN DISH, ELEVENTH CENTURY(?) |
16917 | The question to be asked is--"Is this rare?" |
16917 | They need not ask,"Did this happen? |
16917 | This is the general question, which, you will find, divides itself into two sufficiently precise queries--"What will Society do with Art?" |
16917 | Through what collections has it passed? |
16917 | To him the question"Does this move me?" |
16917 | To justify ethically any human activity, we must inquire--"Is this a means to good states of mind?" |
16917 | To that how shall we assign a starting- point? |
16917 | To the question--"Why are we so profoundly moved by certain combinations of forms?" |
16917 | To understand completely the history of an age must we know and understand the history of its art? |
16917 | Vitale, Ravenna_] I THE RISE OF CHRISTIAN ART What do I mean by a slope? |
16917 | WHAT IS ART? |
16917 | Was ever ideal so vulnerable? |
16917 | We do not stay to inquire"What useful purpose does this serve, whom does it benefit, and how?" |
16917 | What are the names of the figures portrayed? |
16917 | What are their histories? |
16917 | What becomes of it? |
16917 | What becomes of the great scientific principle of water- tight compartments? |
16917 | What becomes of the specialist? |
16917 | What but that which philosophers used to call"the thing in itself"and now call"ultimate reality"? |
16917 | What can it be but emotion? |
16917 | What could be more nonsensical? |
16917 | What could it be? |
16917 | What details are not irrelevant? |
16917 | What else is there for them to follow? |
16917 | What have all these tags of mythology and history, these pedagogic raptures and peripatetic ecstasies, to do with genuine emotion? |
16917 | What is a tree, a dog, a wall, a boat? |
16917 | What is being done to their native sensibilities by the earnest bear- leader with his( or her) catalogue of dates and names and appropriate comments? |
16917 | What is it that distinguishes the creator from the copyist? |
16917 | What is it that lurks behind forms and seems to be conveyed by them to us? |
16917 | What is left to provoke our emotion? |
16917 | What is that which is left when we have stripped a thing of all its associations, of all its significance as a means? |
16917 | What is the justification of this classification? |
16917 | What is the particular significance of anything? |
16917 | What is the quality common and peculiar to all members of this class? |
16917 | What is the significance of anything as an end in itself? |
16917 | What is this mysterious thing that dominates the artist in the creation of forms? |
16917 | What is this quality? |
16917 | What is this that imitated forms lack and created forms possess? |
16917 | What kind of form is that from which the musician draws the emotion that he expresses in abstract harmonies? |
16917 | What of the builder''s? |
16917 | What of those formidable compendiums in which the multitudinous activities of man are kept so jealously apart? |
16917 | What quality is shared by all objects that provoke our aesthetic emotions? |
16917 | What the style and cut of their coats, breeches, and beards? |
16917 | What was the object of the potter''s emotion? |
16917 | What would it profit him to gain the whole world and lose his own soul? |
16917 | What, then, is the conclusion of the whole matter? |
16917 | When was it made? |
16917 | Whence come the emotions of the architect and the potter? |
16917 | Whence sprang that Hellenic impulse? |
16917 | Where was it made? |
16917 | Who has not, once at least in his life, had a sudden vision of landscape as pure form? |
16917 | Who paid for it? |
16917 | Why should artists bother about the fate of humanity? |
16917 | Why should they bother to examine their feelings when for them to feel is enough? |
16917 | Why should they stop to think when they are not very good at thinking? |
16917 | Will they understand that, as a rule, the last to feel aesthetic emotion is the historian of art? |
16917 | Yet how many of us can resist the malsane pleasure of puzzling over the past and speculating about the future? |
16917 | _ Ariadne in Naxos._ Is Strauss, our one musician of genius, himself the pivot on which the wheel is beginning to swing? |
16917 | and"What will Art do with Society?" |
16917 | should be,"Because artists can express in combinations of lines and colours an emotion felt for reality which reveals itself through line and colour"? |
16917 | why can not people who set themselves to be sound and honest remember that there are other things in life? |
11391 | Are you waiting to be shaved, Sir? |
11391 | Is it you, Harman? |
11391 | And does it not at least_ hint_ of duties and affections towards the most deformed in body, the most depraved in mind,--of interminable consequences? |
11391 | And here we would ask, Does not this striking exception in the present argument cast back, as it were, a confirmatory reflection? |
11391 | And what is the inference? |
11391 | And what is the inference? |
11391 | And what was Rome then but the great University of Art, where all this accumulated learning was treasured? |
11391 | And whence the conception of this mysterious character, but from its mysterious prototype, the Idea of the Infinite? |
11391 | And whence this pertinacious faith that_ will_ not die, but from a spring of life, that neither custom nor the dry understanding can destroy? |
11391 | And where is hatred deepest and deadliest? |
11391 | And who that has a modicum of the imaginative would assert of one of Haydn''s Sonatas, that its effect on him was no other than sensuous? |
11391 | And why else should all nations instinctively bow before the superior forms of Greece? |
11391 | And why is this, but for the reason assigned in the preceding instance of a still- life picture? |
11391 | And why? |
11391 | And why? |
11391 | And why? |
11391 | And yet without the physical organ who can hold it? |
11391 | Are they not rather more often vague, and only indicated in some_ undefined_ feeling? |
11391 | Ay, how could we ever stand these but for that ideal panoply through which we feel only their modified vibrations? |
11391 | But can it be so expressed? |
11391 | But could he not obtain them without such aid? |
11391 | But here it may be asked, How are we to distinguish an Idea from a mere_ notion_? |
11391 | But here it may be asked, In what manner, if we resort not to actual portrait, is the Individual Man to be expressed? |
11391 | But how can this be? |
11391 | But how do we know that Beauty is limited to such exclusive relation? |
11391 | But how do we obtain this mutual dependence? |
11391 | But how have all these changes affected this_ visible image of Truth_? |
11391 | But how is it then? |
11391 | But is a precise object always necessary to the mind? |
11391 | But is it not the business of the artist to touch the heart? |
11391 | But is such exultation pleasure? |
11391 | But may not men differ as to their impressions of truth? |
11391 | But may not these tragic pleasures have their source in sympathy alone? |
11391 | But should we, could we look into his heart? |
11391 | But what is the truth of the Spirit but the Spirit itself,--the conscious_ I_? |
11391 | But what will be the reply in regard to the Intellect? |
11391 | But why should I seek one? |
11391 | But why should the effect be different, except in degree, from the beauty of a human being? |
11391 | But why talk of feeling, says the pseudo- connoisseur, where we should only, or at least first, bring knowledge? |
11391 | But why, it may be asked, where the false predominates, do we still derive pleasure? |
11391 | But will the same natural object, conveyed through these organs, leave the same impression? |
11391 | Can we have a stronger case in point than that of the celebrated Wilkes, one of the ugliest, yet one of the most admired men of his time? |
11391 | Could a more terrible distance be measured, than by these fearful words, between God and man? |
11391 | Could any finite object account for this? |
11391 | Could we stand in the presence of one of these holy beings,( if to stand were possible,) what of the Sublime in this lower world would so shake us? |
11391 | Did they never feel its sublimity while they knew their danger? |
11391 | Do we mean the understanding? |
11391 | Does he ever descend from a higher assimilant to a lower? |
11391 | Does he feel its truth? |
11391 | Does he feel nothing more than the genial warmth? |
11391 | Does not this undeniable fact, then, bring us to the fair conclusion, that the moral being has no genera? |
11391 | Every one rhymes now- a- days, and so can I. Shall I write an Epic, or a Tragedy, or a Metrical Romance? |
11391 | Finally, do we find it identified with the truth of the Spirit? |
11391 | First, In what consists Moral Perfection? |
11391 | For what answer can we give to the question, What is a Whole? |
11391 | For what is Genius but the prophetic revealer of the unseen True, that can neither be purchased nor bribed into light? |
11391 | For what is a perfect Intellect? |
11391 | For who ever felt it in watching the progress of actual villany or the betrayal of innocence, or in being an eyewitness of murder? |
11391 | From the view here presented, what is the inference in relation to Art? |
11391 | Has human beauty, then, no power? |
11391 | Here we are compelled to ask, What is understood by the mind? |
11391 | How and why is this? |
11391 | How are they affected, for instance, by a piece of Mozart''s? |
11391 | How else can we account for those instantaneous sympathies and antipathies towards an utter stranger? |
11391 | How else, for instance, can we account for a scene in nature, a bird, an animal, a human form, affecting us each in a similar way? |
11391 | How is it, then, in the world of spirit? |
11391 | How many things act upon us of which we have no knowledge? |
11391 | How otherwise could such a being as Caliban ever be true to us? |
11391 | How, then, can a man who has_ once_ sinned, and who has not of_ himself_ cleansed his soul, be fit for heaven where no sin can enter? |
11391 | If it be further demanded, What is the minimum of truth in order to a pleasurable effect? |
11391 | If man were a mere animal, though the highest animal, could these inscrutable influences affect us as they do? |
11391 | In fortune I have a competence,--why not be as independent in mind? |
11391 | In what form, then, shall we recognize it? |
11391 | In what part, then, of man may this self- evidenced, yet elusive, Truth or power be said to reside? |
11391 | Is it altogether out of experience? |
11391 | Is it at all akin to what is recognized as pleasure even by this hardened wretch? |
11391 | Is it reasonable, then, to suppose that any thing not immutable in its nature could possibly have withstood such continual fluctuation? |
11391 | Is it the Dialectic, the Speculative, or the Imaginative? |
11391 | Is it, then, in the mind? |
11391 | Is this impossible? |
11391 | Leaving this to have the weight it may be found to deserve, we turn to the original question; namely, What do we mean by Human or Poetic Truth? |
11391 | Let us endeavour for one moment to conceive of this; does not the soul seem to dilate within us, and the body to shrink as to a grain of dust? |
11391 | Let us suppose this form of hope to be taken away from an immortal being who has no self- satisfying power within him, what would be his condition? |
11391 | May we not then infer a similar Principle without us, an Infinite Harmony, to which our own is attracted? |
11391 | Might it not have been rather this sublime fascination? |
11391 | Now have we at all times a distinct consciousness of the things referred to? |
11391 | Now the question is, Where, and in what bias, is this mysterious attraction? |
11391 | Now, could this difference be possible, were the sole cause, strictly speaking, in mere matter? |
11391 | On which Prospero remarks,--"Hast thou, which art but air, a touch, a feeling Of their afflictions?" |
11391 | Or in the moral principle? |
11391 | Or who would ask for the_ story_ in one of our gorgeous autumnal sunsets? |
11391 | Or, rather, would it not include them all? |
11391 | Rainbow, are_ you_ the man?" |
11391 | Shall we appeal to the artist? |
11391 | Should we assume, then, the Correspondence as a primeval law, who shall gainsay it? |
11391 | Still the question remains unanswered; and again we are asked, Why is it that our own works do not always respond with equal veracity? |
11391 | Suppose him to have been born in Italy; would he go to Holland to realize his Idea? |
11391 | The same might be said, also, in respect to the Beautiful: for who was ever alive to it under a paroxysm of terror, or pain of any kind? |
11391 | Then, what directs the artist from one object to another, and determines him which to choose, if he has not the guide within him? |
11391 | Then, what may follow? |
11391 | Was it mere scientific curiosity that cost the elder Pliny his life? |
11391 | Was it the_ truth_ of these objects that we there acknowledged? |
11391 | We are now brought to the important question,_ Where_ and_ what_ is this reconciling ground? |
11391 | Well, then, may he tremble to essay it even in thought; for where must it carry him,--that winged messenger, fleeter than light? |
11391 | What are these wishes but unconscious retrospects to our primitive nature? |
11391 | What but an intellectual brute could have uttered the imprecations of Caliban? |
11391 | What could we feel but an agony even like that of the sufferer, the only difference being that one is physical, the other mental? |
11391 | What even would Beauty be to the sated appetite? |
11391 | What is the cause of my difficulty? |
