Geometry Is The Foundation Of All Painting.

Sight Is The Noblest Sense Of Man.

No Single Man Can Be Taken As A Model For A Perfect Figure, For No Man Lives On Earth Who Is Endowed With The Whole Of Beauty.

He That Would Be A Painter Must Have A Natural Turn Thereto. Love And Delight Therein Are Better Of The Art Of Painting Than Compulsion.

Sane Judgment Abhors Nothing So Much As A Picture Perpetrated With No Technical Knowledge, Although With Plenty Of Care And Diligence.

I Hold That The Perfection Of Form And Beauty Is Contained In The Sum Of All Men.
