"A Painter's First Work", par Marcus Stone dans l'exposition de la Royal Academy, 1862. Gravure d'un tableau. 'Notre petit peintre naissant... a été laissé à la maison dans une pièce vide. Nous pouvons imaginer qu'il a regardé longtemps et souvent le portrait Lely-like d'une dame... sans oeil à observer et sans main à vérifier, l'irrésistible impulsion imitative, ou plutôt le first...inspiration de génie, le pousse à saisir la craie et copier ce qui l'a si longtemps tenu sous un charme. Il le fait, et, comme un "premier travail", même ce croquis grossier à la craie a une indication abondante d'un naturel spécial

"A Painter's First Work", by Marcus Stone in the Royal Academy Exhibition, 1862. Engraving of a painting. 'Our little incipient painter...has been left at home in an empty room. We may fancy that he has looked long and often at the Lely-like portrait of a lady...with no eye to observe and no hand to check, the irresistible imitative impulse, or rather the first...inspiration of genius, prompts him to seize the chalk and copy what has so long held him under a spell. He does so, and, as a "first work, " even this rough chalk sketch has abundant indication of a special natural gift and faculty. Just as he has finished his outline...the father returns...seeing the panels of the oak press scrawled all over and disfigured with chalk, he turns to scold the little fellow for, as he thinks, slovenliness and idleness, and to threaten him with the consequences of a repetition of the offence. The boy, surprised and detected, stands abashed; but still, as if conscious of having been incited by something pure and noble, his look of timid deprecation is mingled with the trace of a wish to justify himself...The older gentleman...sees in the rough chalkwork the germs of what may bear glorious fruit; and he at once checks the father's inconsiderate anger'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
