Excerpt from The Classic Point of View: Six Lectures on Painting, Delivered on the Scammon Foundation at the Art Institute of Chicago in the Year 1911 I have therefore welcomed the opportunity afforded by theinvitation from The Art Institute Of Chicago to deliver the Scammon Lectures for 1911 to draw up a definitive credo - a detailed and explicit confession Of artistic faith.
