Dobbiamo ammaliare la verità, darle l'apparenza della follia.
2/9
The principal person in a picture is light.
3/9
The country only has charms for those not obliged to stay there.
4/9
Concision in art is a necessity and an elegance. The verbose painter bores: who will get rid of all these trimmings?
5/9
There is only one true thing: instantly paint what you see.
6/9
There's no symmetry in nature. One eye is never exactly the same as the other. There's always a difference. We all have a more or less crooked nose and an irregular mouth.
7/9
La concisione nell'arte è una necessità e un'eleganza. Il pittore prolisso annoia: chi si libererà di tutti questi fronzoli?
9/9
You would hardly believe how difficult it is to place a figure alone on a canvas and to concentrate all the interest on this single and universal figure and still keep it living and real.
