To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To burlesque the human figure, to make of it a vile arabesque, a shameful sight, is the beset ting temptation of the younger generation. Naturally, it is good to get away from the sac charine and the rococo, but vulgarity is always vulgarity and true art is never vulgar. How ever, Kubin has plenty of precedents. A ramble through any picture-gallery on the Continent will prove that human nature was the same five hundred years ago as it was in the Stone Age, as it is to-day, as it always will be.... Some of Rembrandt's etched plates are unmention able, and Goya even went to further lengths. Now, Kubin is a lineal descendant of this 225 KUBIN, MUNCH, AND GAUGUIN: Spaniard, minus his genius, for our young man is not a genius, despite his cleverness. He bur lesques the themes of Goya at times, and in him there is more than a streak of the cruelty which causes such a painful impression when viewing the Proverbs or the Disasters of War. Kubin has chosen to seek earlier than Goya for his artistic nourishment.
