An Art Aphorism.

Here is an art aphorism from Jean Francois Millet: “I have been reproached for not observing detail; I see it, but I prefer to construct the synthesis which as an.artistlc effort is higher and more robust. You reproach me with insensibility to charm; why, I open your eyes to that which you do not perceive, but which is none the less real —the dramatic."
