Toulouse-Lautrec, La Chaîne Simpson, 1896
In our time there are many artists who do something because it is new; they see their value and their justification in this newness. They are deceiving themselves; novelty is seldom the essential. This has to do with one thing only; making a subject better from its intrinsic nature.
Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, born on this day in 1864
