"No man's art is separate from the world which shaped him. His inner being is influenced by the life he lives, even as was Michelangelo's in the Renaissance. Living as Camille Pissarro for five years was a torment and an exultation. I hope and expect every reader to become Camille Pissarro, live out his years and paint his pictures . . ." (Irving Stone).
