"We want to open their eyes and minds to appreciate the masterpieces of pictorial art, to lead them from mere fondness for a pretty picture which pleases the senses
up to honest love and discriminating admiration for what is truly beautiful--
a love and admiration which are the response of heart and intellect
to the appeal addressed to them through the senses
by all great works of art."
