Quotes by Shaftesbury - (1 quote)

Shaftesbury - From the Genius category:

A painter, if he has any genius, understands the truth and unity of design; and he knows he is even then unnatural when he follows Nature too close... For his art allows him not to bring all nature into his piece, but a part only. (Shaftesbury)
