TAILIEUCHUNG - CHINESE PAINTERS A CRITICAL STUDY

A translator can have but one aim—to present the thought of the author faithfully. In this case an added responsibility is involved, since one who had so much to give to the world has been taken in his prime. M.

He was only forty-five years of age in the prime of his powers brimming with energy and full of enterprises that promised richly.
