IV Now, if thorough consideration for everybody's share in the work is the desideratum, how are we to bring it about? Thus far two quite different roads have been followed, each good for a certain distance, neither leading far enough. At the beginning of one road the architect has said to himself: "I am afraid of inexperience in my mural painter. I am afraid of 'features' in my room, afraid of great canvases made a theatre of display for virtuosity, and throw- ing my ensemble out of balance. I ...will adhere to the methods of the Italian fifteenth century, mak- ing such an elaborate decorative distribution of geometrical divisions of my walls and ceilings by means of carved mouldings and borders that what goes within them will pass muster, even if it be rela- tively inferior in drawing and painting, and at least will not confuse or contradict my design. The art- ist shall be prodigal of little figures flat against gold or modelled in relief, rich perhaps in color, or it may be toned into delicate distinction.
