In the art of the old masters Christ was given a definite embodiment: therefore, if they want to depict not God but a revolutionary or a sage, let them choose some historic character – Socrates, Franklin, Charlotte Corday – but certainly not Christ!
Cristo ya tiene su encarnación definida en el arte de los maestros antiguos. Si quieren presentar, en vez de a Dios, a un revolucionario o un santo, que muestren a Sócrates, a Franklin o a Carlota Corday, pero no a Cristo.
