Author Description

Excerpt from El Camino de Paros: Meditaciones y Andanzas Este es el proceso en la invención del artista; ésta la smisteriosa generación de lo bello, de que habló el Só crates platónico: una belleza entrevista, que enciende amor, deseo de tenerla, anhelo de fijarla; una congrega ción de infinitas partes, menudas y dispersas, que el magnetismo del amor atrae, y la perseverancia del amor apura; y por fin, un inspirado acto de amor, que estrecha en abrazo ardorosisimo esos mil distintos elementos, y del acuerdo y animación que entre ellos pone, saca la apete cida imagen, limpia y luciente, rica de color y de vida.
