Excerpt from Velazquez an Account of His Life and Works

But although the last word on Velazquez has probably been uttered, there are many to whom his pictures are still not truly known. The fact that he is the painters' painter has been insisted upon so strongly that some have been deluded into the belief that his art appeals exclusively to artists. It is unquestionably true that those who understand the technique of painting, can appreciate best the supreme quality Of the master's work, but all lovers of beautiful things can learn to see and delight in the special charm of his pictures.

Excerpt from Velazquez an Account of His Life and Works

My dear Duchess,

I venture to offer for your acceptance the dedication of my poor appreciation of Velazquez, in the hope that the greatness of the subject will atone for demerits in the treatment of the theme, and in the confidence that even those demerits will be regarded with the gracious lenience that my work has always received at your hands.
