Letter #332 To Anthon van Rappard
I find something in dexterity and technical knowledge about art that reminds me of what, in religion, they’d call self-righteousness

Letter #332 To Anthon van Rappard
That art is something which, although produced by human hands, is not wrought by the hands alone but wells up from a deeper source in our soul

Letter #332 To Anthon van Rappard
I’ve also taken The Graphic Portfolio apart and inserted it between my loose prints. This is why you already have Low lodging house by Herkomer, and several of the best of this consignment too. I’m sending you the ordinary impressions of some prints that I obtained in duplicate in this way, and in the case of some the prints from the book itself, which are printed not from the clichés but from the blocks themselves.
