From the book “Landscape Painting” by Birge Harrison. A comparison between art and science. Outlining what a painting/ art should be.
“Here then clearly lies the division line between science and art-the one gives us actual truths, the other visual truths; the one facts, the other moods, impressions, visions; each in its place admirable, each ministering to one of the two great needs of humanity, the physical and the spiritual.”
