First sentence: Just as there are particular words or phrases (such as decadence or fin de siecle) which seem to express the very essence of an entire era, of a certain society's wishes and desires, aims and preoccupations and guiding principles, so too there are key images in every artist's work that reveal his character and the wellspring of his creative impulses most clearly of all.
