Summary

This quote suggests that artists are often misunderstood or not fully appreciated during their lifetimes. While many assume that artists are ahead of their time, the quote argues that it is actually most people who are lagging behind, unable to grasp or fully appreciate the innovative ideas and expressions presented by artists. It implies that artists may be ahead of the general public in terms of their creative vision and ability to break new ground, and that it takes time for society to catch up and recognize their true genius.
