The Studio at Firnew Farm

Before there was art, there was painting. ... I remember a conversation I once had with an elder painter who was a particular proponent of abstraction, insisting on the absolute importance of painting's independence from any demand it illustrate a predetermined meaning. "Well, how do you feel when you look at a painting by Caravaggio?"
