Quote by Oscar Wilde
Bad artists always admire each other's work. They call it being large-minded and free from prejudice. But a truly great artist cannot conceive of life being shown, or beauty fashioned, under any conditions other than those he has selected.
Summary
This quote suggests that bad artists tend to appreciate each other's work, thinking that it demonstrates open-mindedness and lack of bias. In contrast, a truly great artist believes that life and beauty can only be portrayed and created under the specific conditions they have chosen. It implies that true artistic greatness lies in having a distinct vision and a personal approach, rather than being influenced or accepting of other artists' perspectives.
