Excerpt from Golden Gleams From the Heavenly Light
The pictures in the first department were paint ed by those who had in earth life so longed to copy nature, but whose hands were tied; those whose days were filled with hard labor and whose nights gave but little rest, and with sad longings for days that would never come in earth life. There were hundreds of pictures which looked more like living scenes in nature than like pictures.
