Excerpt from Some Contemporary Artists
T is no longer the fashion to abuse British pictures. All sorts of nice things are being said about our paintings and, if we believed all we were told, we should think that our painters had nothing to learn from anybody.
British art stands second to none in the world. So said Sir Robert Witt at the open ing of a Spring exhibition in Whitechapel this year (1922) and Sir William Orpen, who him self certainly knows how to paint, has re echoed his words. No doubt it is comforting to have a good opinion of ourselves, but these pronouncements would carry more conviction did they come from the mouth of a foreigner. We are hardly able ourselves justly to appraise the worth of our contemporary artists.
