that is seen rather
than felt, and
poetry is painting
that is felt rather
than seen.”
Leonardo Da Vinci
The aim of art is to
represent not the
outward appearance of
things, but their inward
significance.
Aristotle
“A man should hear a little music, read a
little poetry, and see a fine picture every
day of his life, in order that worldly cares
may not obliterate the sense of the
beautiful which God has implanted in the
human soul.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
