Of yesterday and today, SoFoBoMo

Pieces of "The Gates"

"If the artist only reproduces superficial features
as photography does, if he copies the lineaments
of a face exactly, without reference to
character, he deserves no admiration. The resemblance
which he ought to obtain is that of the soul;
that alone matters; it is that which the sculptor
or painter should seek beneath the mask of
features." A. Rodin

From the book "Art by A. Rodin"

I love google books.
