“...no better criterion of fundamental excellence of work...”

“...to have a drawing accepted and published is a sure sign that the work is above the average. There is no better criterion of fundamental excellence of work than to have it accepted and paid for by the Art Department of a magazine; and...there are no end of so called painters who would give much to have their work so accepted.”
Howard Pyle to Bertha Corson Day, June 23, 1896
