One Yet-To-Be-Sorted Quotation[edit]

Here's the quotation in question:

  • “A painting must incorporate the highest moral connotation, which is illustrated through the structure that can convey the cognitive contents.”

Thanks for reading. -- Apisite (talk) 04:42, 9 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Apisite:, yes it did work.

The quote is fine for this page. It explains the painter's view on paintings.

On the other hand, it would be better to have the exact source from where Poussin said it. The quote or its translation sounds a bit almost "academic".

But if you like the quote, it can be added, in my opinion. -- (talk) 19:50, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
