Perspective starts from one viewpoint and never gets away from it. But the viewpoint is quite unimportant. It is though someone were to draw profiles all his life, leading people to think that a man has only one eye.
Georges Braque
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
Thanks to the oval I have discovered the meaning of the horizontal and the vertical.
