Excerpt from Die Mutterschaft in der Malerei und Graphik
Soweit wir die menschliche Arbeit in der Flucht der Zeiten zurückverfolgen können, ist die Kunst, die veredelte Arbeit, all zeit die gleiche geblieben.
Wie ein in das Wasser geworfener Stein immer weitere und weitere Kreise zieht, so hat sich die Kunst im Laufe der Zeiten Gebiete erobert, die ihr scheinbar ferne gelegen sind. Heute um spannt sie bereits das ganze menschliche Können, wenn es ge stattet ist, diesen Ausdruck im Gegensatz zum Wissen zu ge brauchen.
