"Any portrait painted with real feeling is a portrait of the artist and not of the model. The model is just a mere circumstance, an occasion. It is not him that the painter unmasks; rather, it is the painter who reveals himself on the colorful canvas.

Any portrait painted with real feeling is a portrait of the artist and not of the model. The model is just a mere circumstance, an occasion. It is not him that the painter unmasks; rather, it is the painter who reveals himself on the colorful canvas.
"Hungarian
"Minden olyan portré, amit valódi érzéssel festettek, a művész portréja, és nem a modellé. A modell csak puszta körülmény, alkalom. Nem őt leplezi le a festő; inkább a festő az, aki a színes vásznon leleplezi önmagát."
