Excerpt from George Inness: The Man and His Art

In addressing myself to this work, I encounter the difficulty of knowing j ust how corredtly those who have known a man may judge his work. This is a question yet open, and ever will be so long as human affecftions and beliefs hold sway over judgment. The personality is a powerful agent when in close communication, and time and distance each exert an influence, often forcs ing a change or readjustment of view ihmay there fore be open to criticism for overpraise, since it was my privilege to know Mr. Inness very well.

Of the work of George Inness we can have neither too intimate nor too complete a knowl edge, for in his name the corner stone ofameri can landscape art rests.
