To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Edmund Burke, in his "Treatise on the Sublime and Beautiful," says: "Art can never give the rules that make an art." It follows then, that we can not take mere definitions for this, but must discover by comparisons. Let us, therefore, make careful comparisons between the barber's occupation and that of the portrait painter, sculptor, or designer.
Pope, in his "Essay on Criticism," says: "One science only will one genious fit; So vast is art, so narrow human wit." IvS THE BARBER AN ARTIST?
And w
...ith this idea of the vastness of art all will agree who give the subject a careful thought, and will be easily convinced, that there are designers who do not merely repro- duce their ideas on canvass or carve them in stone. If we admit with Pope, the narrowness of human wit as compared with art, we must acknowledge also the vast field occupied by art ; hence should concede that art is not confined merely to painters, sculptors and musicians, and that if the sculptor or painter can be, not only equaled, but outdone by any pro- fession, the members of that profession must also be truly entitled to the term artists.
