Famous quotes containing the word painters:
“They ought to put out the eyes of painters as they do goldfinches in order that they can sing better.”
—Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
“The painters did very well by her;
it is true, they missed never a line
of the suave turn of the head
or subtle shade of lowered eye-lid
or eye-lids half-raised.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“Most of our modern portrait painters are doomed to absolute oblivion. They never paint what they see. They paint what the public sees, and the public never sees anything.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
