Ingres: 'To draw does not
simply mean to reproduce contours; the drawing does not simply consist in the
idea: the drawing is even the expression, the interior form, the plan, the
model. Look what remains after that! The drawing is three fourths and a half of
what constitutes painting. If I had to put a sign over my door [to the
atelier], I would write: School of drawing, and I’m certain that I would create
painters.'
