Pablo Picasso Quotes:

It is not what the artist does that counts. But what he is. Cézanne would never have interested me if he had lived and thought like Jacques-Émile Blanche, even if the apple he had painted had been ten times more beautiful. What interests us is the anxiety of Cézanne, the teaching of Cézanne, the anguish of Van Gogh, in short the inner drama of the man. The rest is false.

Who sees the human face correctly: the photographer, the mirror, or the painter?

Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?
