Camille Pissarro | White Frost, Woman Breaking Up Wood, 1890
- Painting, art in general, enchants me. It is my life. What else matters? When you put all your soul into a work, all that is noble in you, you cannot fail to find a kindred soul who understands you, and you do not need a host of such spirits. Is not that all an artist should wish for?
- When you do a thing with your whole soul and everything that is noble within you, you always find your counterpart.
- It is only by drawing often, drawing everything, drawing incessantly, that one fine day you discover to your surprise that you have rendered something in its true character.
- Work at the same time on sky, water, branches, ground, keeping everything going on an equal basis... Don't be afraid of putting on colour... Paint generously and unhesitatingly, for it is best not to lose the first impression.

Auguste Rodin | Fugitive Love, 1886
This small group which originally featured in La Porte de l'Enfer (The Gates of Hell) commissioned in 1880, was the biggest project of Rodin's life.
The sculptor chose to illustrate Dante's L'Enfer (Inferno), populated by the tortured souls of the damned.
He worked on it for at least twenty years without ever finishing it.
This monumental work of one hundred and eighty six figures was, for Rodin, an opportunity to create a ‘reservoir' from which he would draw for future compositions.
