Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Papers of the Manchester Literary Club, Vol. 46: Containing I. the "Manchester Quarterly" For 1920, II. Report, Proceedings, &C., For Session 1919-20 Art critics are apt to look down upon work which enjoys only a local reputation, as if all the great artists have not had to emerge from the unknown to the known, from a local to a general reputation. They say a work is either good or bad art, and that there the matter ends. Its provenance is irrelevant; its quality is the only thing that counts. This drastic judgment may be true, in the long run - from the point of view of immortality. But we are mortals and are interested in our own time and surroundings. We care for our own folk, our friends, our town. We feel it is natural to be interested in home and all that radiates from it. Our chosen chums are not always the cleverest and most gifted of our acquaintance. We cleave most to those who attract us by particular qualities or affinities, especially when they have become endeared to us by associations of home, of place, of time and circumstance. There is, in short, no need to apologise for enjoying paintings produced in our own little corner of the globe. Mayhap our thoughts and feelings are sometimes best interpreted by our own poets, writers, painters, musicians, craftsmen. And they are flowers from our own garden, nourished by the same air as ourselves. They belong to us in a special way.
