The sitter is merely the accident, the occasion.
It is not he who is revealed by the painter; it is rather the painter who, on the coloured canvas, reveals himself."

Art: A Reflection of Self?
"Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.
The sitter is merely the accident, the occasion.
It is not he who is revealed by the painter; it is rather the painter who, on the coloured canvas, reveals himself."
