JAMES WARD R.A.
A LIONESS WITH A HERON
What are the pursuits of man, after all, but a frivolity?...[Even] the art of painting... is a
plaything...merely a case of a child amusing itself with a rattle. ...No ! If I had to chose the state of
another existence in this world, it should not be that of a man - I would be a lion!
JAMES NORTHCOTE TO JAMES WARD1
