"I don't pretend to be a great painter, " he said, "I'm not aMichael Angelo, no, but I have something. I sell. I bringromance into the homes of all sorts of people. Do you know, they buy my pictures not only in Holland, but in Norway andSweden and Denmark? It's mostly merchants who buy them, andrich tradesmen.
