White Paintings

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or paintings:

“O, white pear,
your flower-tufts
thick on the branch
bring summer and ripe fruits
in their purple hearts.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“All photographs are there to remind us of what we forget. In this—as in other ways—they are the opposite of paintings. Paintings record what the painter remembers. Because each one of us forgets different things, a photo more than a painting may change its meaning according to who is looking at it.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
