" "I heard nothing from his excellence [Mr. Keiller bought a picture of 1000 pond and sent Israëls the money but no word about the picture].. .I am sure he will be satisfied by it when he hears it is good. I have some practice in those matters of amateurs. The best pictures are the worst for them naturally. They have not the tools to understand it, but when they hear other saying it is fine, they make a high breast saying 'I' ordered that picture..

Additional quotes by Jozef Israëls
Take care for purity in the paint and not so stinky thick of grease, thin, thin, thin! And just on the light [parts in the painting] here and there a small push of thick [paint].. ..thick house-interiors are unpleasant - long drawing before you start and arrange pleasantly together all things before you start to paint - if the money does not bother you, it is always useful to visit Rott. [Rotterdam]. (translation from the original Dutch: Fons Heijnsbroek)
version in original Dutch (citaat van Jozef Israëls' brief, in het Nederlands): .Ik wou echter als vriend van u een raad hebben dit namelijk of gij oordeelt dat ik mijne schilderij 'Ouden en Jongen' naar Brussel [tentoonstelling] zal zenden of niet. Ik dacht dat het een aardig schilderij was, maar nu las ik in het Handelsblad dat het zo slecht is. Wat is daarvan aan. Doe mij svp het genoegen mij hierop een woordje sans facon [zonder omwegen] te dienen, hoe gij het voor u zelf vindt.
