The Daily Life of a Young Painter in Vienna

 

 


 Vienna, Austria 1913

"As a rule he did one painting a day. In the morning he sketched it out; after lunch he coloured it. Most pictures were roughly 35 x 45 cm (14in. x 16in.) and were almost invariably Viennese scenes. Most often it was the Charles Church that he draw or scenes from Old Vienna and the old Vienna Naschmarkt. I recall that he would often do especially seleable sudjects a dozen times, one after the other. 

Whether these pictures can be regarded as works of art, I do not know... When a picture was finished and we all said how much we admired it, he would often say disparagingly that he was only a dilettante and that he had yet to learn to paint. But his works could not have been bad because otherwise they would never have sold as well as they did since dealers were even then not in the charity business. "
