Famous quotes containing the word painting:

    “If people only knew as much about painting as I do, they would never buy my pictures.”
    —Edwin Landseer (1802–1873)

    “The peculiarity of sculpture is that it creates a three-dimensional object in space. Painting may strive to give on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quantity that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor. We may say that for the painter space is a luxury; for the sculptor it is a necessity.”
    —Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)

    “One does a whole painting for one peach and people think just the opposite—that that particular peach is but a detail.”
    —Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
