Excerpt from Notes on the Science of Picture-Making
In aesthetics we seem to be still almost as far from this unity as were men of science three centuries ago. A few giant reputations alone rise permanently above the cloudy sea of controversy, and even their summits now and then are touched by stray wisps of prejudice. Around the rest the misty tide of criticism continues to ebb and flow, now overwhelming some peak that for long years basked in the sun of popularity, now nu covering some other mountain mass hitherto shrouded in oblivion.
