Thomas Gainsborough Quote

To a lawyer about 'the painter's eye':

The painter's eye is to him what the lawyer's tongue is to you.


Conversations of James Northcote (1830), William Hazlitt


The painter's eye is to him what the lawyer's tongue is to you.

The painter's eye is to him what the lawyer's tongue is to you.

The painter's eye is to him what the lawyer's tongue is to you.

The painter's eye is to him what the lawyer's tongue is to you.
