Impressionism; it is the birth of Light in painting.

Our understanding is correlative to our perception.

Light in Nature creates the movement of colors.

The auditory perception is not sufficient for our knowledge of the world; it does not have vastness.

But what is of great importance to me is observation of the movement of colors.

Painting is by nature a luminous language.

Art in Nature is rhythmic and has a horror of constraint.

Seeing is in itself a movement.

The idea of the vital movement of the world and its movement is simultaneity.

Simultaneity in light is harmony, the rhythm of colors which creates the Vision of Man.

Nature engenders the science of painting.

If Art relates itself to an Object, it becomes descriptive, divisionist, literary.

This synchronous action then will be the Subject, which is the representative harmony.

I am very much afraid of definitions, and yet one is almost forced to make them. One must take care, too, not to be inhibited by them.

The eye is the most refined of our senses, the one which communicates most directly with our mind, our consciousness.

On the other hand, the artist has much to do in the realm of color construction, which is so little explored and so obscure, and hardly dates back any farther than to the beginning of Impressionism.

It is this research into pure painting that is the problem at the present moment. I do not know any painters in Paris who are really searching for this ideal world.

This communication alone, by the comparison of the antagonisms, rivalries, movements which give birth to decisive moments, permits the evolution of the soul, whereby a man realizes himself on earth. It is impossible to be concerned with anything else in art.
