Auguste Rodin quote:
"Compare me with Rembrandt? What sacrelige!
With Rembrandt, the collosus of art! We should prostrate ourselves before Rembrandt
and never compare anyone with him!"
Both Renoir and Vermeer agreed.
Some may wonder why he painted so many self portraits. He actually used them to give his students
the task of copying them.
