Publisher description
Excerpt from Pablo De Segovia, the Spanish SharperI hate and abominate the painter who fills columns with the recital of his misfortunes, telling you how he lost his paint brush, or how he had never a canvas of the right Size, and soulfully lamenting the degeneracy of an age which knows quite too much to appreciate him. I can almost worship a man who Silently conquers a living death.Vierge is an artist who, like all great artists, has worked for his art and his bread and butter. He is an illustrator, and, though therefore he has no hope of devoting a gallery to his own glorification, any Museum which might be so fortunate as to secure the original drawings from which these reproductions were made, would become for artists a place of pilgrimage.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
