Excerpt from Young Artist's Assistant, or Elements of the Fine Arts: Containing the Principles of Drawing, Painting in General, Crayon Painting, Oil Painting, Portrait Painting, Miniature Painting, Designing, Colouring, Engraving, &C., &C

But though genius is absolutely necessary, since nothing excellent can be done without it, yet it will not alone suffice. Like a rich but uncultivated soil, it would be fruitful only in weeds, were not its exu betances corrected by the rules of art, by reflection, and a strict attention to nature, which as the grand object of a painter's meditations, ought never to be, out of his sight; itis the only source of beauty, since nothing can be pleasing that is not natural.

An intimate knowledge of the works of the ancients will be of the greatest advantage; they made nature their peculiar study, and transmitted to us examples which have ever been considered as forming a perfect rule of beauty.
