As an art it is even more attractive than painting, because in it the thought is actually incorporated ; it also derives a higher value and interest from the fact that in it we have to deal with the three dimensions, and not with surface merely, and are not called upon to resort to the illusion of perspective.
Pàgina 155 - Of all the ordinary aspects of the country, this blaze of scarlet color is perhaps the most peculiar; and, to those who first enter the Holy Land, it is no wonder that it has suggested the touching and significant name of
