Pierre-Auguste Renoir
There is something in painting which cannot be explained, and that something is the essential. You come to Nature with your theories, and she knocks them all flat.
Renoir quotes
To my mind, a picture should be something pleasant, cheerful, and pretty, yes pretty! There are too many unpleasant things in life as it is without creating still more of them.
