All art is a matter Of nature or
life acted upon by man.; a part taken
out of its accidental surroundings end

the field of true art is a waste place,
where art ceases to have beauty. And
the waste on the n side is reached
when the artist becomes so enam ored
of life that he forgets to interpret, to
give artistic form, and only brings
forth a Photographic image; while the
waste on the other side Is reached
when the artist perfects his form but
