To clumsy Life at her stupid work: Henry James

Resumen

To narrow down so vast a theme as 'realism and reality' it might be best to begin with painting, to us humans so dependent on vision the most visual and therefore the most representative of arts, at least in the period before the advent of photography. The problem of realism and reality is nothing less than the relationship between the creator and the created, the artist and his subject, mind and matter.
