More From Gustave Courbet

Art Is A Wholly Physical Language Whose Words Are All The Visible Objects.

I Have Never Seen Either Angels Or Goddesses, So I Am Not Interested In Painting Them.

I Hope To Live All My Life For My Art, Without Abandoning My Principles One Iota, Without . . . Having Painted As Much As You Can Cover With Your Hand, To Please Somebody Or In Order To Sell The Picture More Easily.

The Beautiful Is In Nature, And It Is Encountered Under The Most Diverse Forms Of Reality. Once It Is Found It Belongs To Art, Or Rather To The Artist Who Discovers It.

Beauty Lies In Nature And Reveals, Once The Artist Has Perceived It, Its Own Expressive Power.
