It's Too Presumptuous And Naïve To Think

That’s My Idea Of What A Portrait Ought To Be, Anonymous And Documentary And A Straightforward Picture Of Mankind.

Detachment, Lack Of Sentimentality, Originality, A Lot Of Things That Sound Rather Empty. I Know What They Mean. Let's Say, "visual Impact" May Not Mean Much To Anybody. I Could Point It Out Though. I Mean It's A Quality That Something Has Or Does Not Have. Coherence. Well, Some Things Are Weak, Some Things Are Strong.
