...only apparent reason for maintaining the Council's existence is the fact that it assigns people to write reports for it. Some of these have been well planned and written, and though not based on scientific polls, have had merit.

His "easel pictures"-landscapes and figure pieces done for pleasure between illustrating assignments-were his worst. As some men can dance well only to brilliant music, Wyeth painted at his best only when inspired by a timeless tale...
