Preface
McColl, W. D.: [no title], 1p.

"When we think of the great discoveries
of the 19th Century which have served not
only to decorate human life, but to enrich this
human spirit, it is not first of all to the art of
painting that we shall turn. No branch of learn-
ing was so neglected, or with few exceptions
perhaps, so sterile, as this. The very applica-
tion of the notion of learning, of study and re-
search to art as a science and as a philosophy
of life still seems to many strange.
It was to redeem this error that PAUL
CEZANNE founded the resolution of making
painting, as he said, 'like the art of the mu-
seums:' expressive of what is permanent in
life and art, and founded on certain realizable
facts, as well as on personal emotional ideals.
'To sit down before facts as a little child,
be prepared to give up every pre-conceived
notion, follow humbly wherever and to what-
ever abysses Nature leads, or you shall learn
nothing' --- that formulary of the best modern
thinkers has happily become the formulary of
modern art. In such a relationship Max Weber
shows here the fruits of his endeavor.
