Excerpt from RossettiFor example this school would prefer the rose to the cabbage as a subject, on account of the symbols attached to it. It is the Queen Of Flowers, the Mystic Rose, &c., , &c., But is the rose greater than the cabbage from a purely pictorial point Of view? It depends entirely upon how far the painter is able to reveal the beauty, the harmony Of form and colour Of either. The symbolistic appanage Of the rose will not suffice Of itself to make a picture, nor for the lack Of these symbols may we condemn the cabbage.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
