Statement
The history of painting is almost the history of depicting people: human beings have been painted in every age, and the results vary so widely that they hardly seem to show the same species. That is because painters have never simply recorded human appearance; they have responded with great sensitivity to the values and the ideas of a time and a place, things that cannot be seen directly.
About the artist
You could say the history of painting is a history of painting people. In every era people have been depicted, and those depictions vary so widely you can hardly believe they are of the same species. That is because what has been painted is not merely the outward appearance of the human being, but a sensitive response to the values and ideas of an era and a place that cannot be seen directly.
