Criticism here is apt to be simply impertinent. It is one s duty to stand before any work of art solely to receive impressions not to for mulate laws, but to discover intentions. I surrender myself, therefore, to these paintings; I banish from my mind all prejudices, all preconceived notions, all forms of self-assertion. Let them impress me, each in its own way and to its own end. Let them awaken in me the sense of beauty, stir my fancy, fill me with some emotion, reveal some truth, produce wha...t impression they can. Willing as I am, they should certainly justify their being in some way. Is it I that am cold and insensible, or the paintings that are meaningless? There must be something more than willingness, doubtless, to understand a painting ; knowledge, perhaps, is necessary in order that one may understand what the painter means, and thus derive right impressions.
