Quotation

Apelles himself was so ingenuous to own so great a Proficiency therein, as might seem to add Confirmation, while in the Disposition, or Ordinance, he modestly yielded to Amphion ; in the Measures, or Proportions, he subscribed to Aschepiodorus ; and of Protogenes was wont to say, in all Points he was equal to him, if not above him ; but after all, there was yet one Thing wanting in them all, which was instar omnium, or, however, the Beauty and Life of all, which he only ascribed, and was proud in being the sole Master of himself, viz. his Venus by the Greeks, named ΧΑΡΙΣ a certain peculiar Grace, sometimes called the Air of the Picture, resulting from a due Observation and Concurrence of all the essential Points and Rules requisite in a compleat Picture, accompany’d with an unconstrained and unaffected Facility and Freedom of the Pencil, which together produced such a ravishing Harmony, that made their Works seem to be performed by some divine and unspeakable Way of ART ; and which (as Fr. Junius expresseth it) is not a Perfection of ART, proceeding meerly from ART, but rather a Perfection proceeding from a consummate ART.
HENCE it was that
Apelles admiring the wonderful Pains and Curiosity in each Point in a Picture of Protogenes’s Painting, yet took Occasion from thence to reprehend him for it as a Fault quod nescivit manum tollere de tabula, implying, that a heavy and painful Diligence and Affectation, are destructive of that Comeliness, Beauty and admired Grace, which only a prompt and prosperous Facility proceeding from a found Judgment of ART, can offord unto us.

Daerom segh ick zijnder nu bequaem, oft begrijplijcke jonghe gheesten oft vaten, tot onse Schilder-const leer-liefdigh oft lustigh wesende, […], die moghen desen mijnen willighen dienst dancklijck aennemen, en snel-geestigh opmercklijck achten op d’onderwijsighe deelen, die ick in desen mijnen Schilder-consten gront, oft gantschen Schilder-boeck, hen voor ooghen stelle oft voordraghe. […] hun vrymoedicheyt levende verweckt te wesen conden mercken : Soo bespreeck ick, datse onvertsaeghdlijck toetreden, en aengrijpen voor eerst het besonderste deel der Consten, te weten, een Menschlijck beeldt te leeren stellen, oock eyndlijck alle ander omstandighe deelen t’omhelsen, oft immers als Natuere en Geest anders niet willen toelaten, eenigh besonder deel, om daer in uytnemende te moghen worden: want het niet daeghlijcx gheschiet, dat een alleen alles vermagh, leeren, begrijpen, oft in alles uytnemende worden can. Sulcx bevintmen onder onse Const, van in den ouden oft Antijcken tijt te wesen toeghegaen, dat d’een in d’een, en d’ander in d’ander geschickter en beter Meester gheweest is, gelijck men in hun levens sal bevinden.
