Famous quotes containing the words gallery of, gallery and/or work:
“I should like to have seen a gallery of coronation beauties, at Westminster Abbey, confronted for a moment by this band of Island girls; their stiffness, formality, and affectation contrasted with the artless vivacity and unconcealed natural graces of these savage maidens. It would be the Venus de Medici placed beside a milliners doll.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)
“Each morning the manager of this gallery substituted some new picture, distinguished by more brilliant or harmonious coloring, for the old upon the walls.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“It is not at all monstrous in me to say ... that I would rather have such a memorial of one I dearly loved, than the noblest artists work ever produced.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (18061861)
