I suppose you have been going everywhere—to the Grafton
Galleries, and the Bernard Shaw play. . . .
Now that Clive is in the van of aesthetic opinion, I hear a great deal
about pictures. I don’t think them so good
as books. But why all the Duchesses are insulted by the post-impressionists, a
modest sample of painters, innocent even of indecency, I cant conceive. However, one mustn’t say they are like other
pictures, only better, because that makes everyone angry.
(L1 440)
Letter to Violet Dickinson, November 27, 1910.
November 8, 1910:
