Thought of the Day: A Quote From Georges Rouault

This quote ties in with an online discussion I have been having recently about the work of the old masters and the work of 20th century artists. (from preface to Stella Vespertina, 1947)

“We can do something else, but we cannot re-create what the collective, spontaneous effort of generations built with the faith that was theirs.”               -Georges Rouault
