The word talent, which they understood to mean an innate and almost physical capacity, independent of mind and heart, and which was their term for everything an artist lives through, occurred very often in their conversation, since they required it as a name for something which they did not at all understand, but about which they wanted to talk.
La palabra «talento», que ellos definían como una facultad natural, casi física, independiente del alma y el corazón, y con la que nombraban cuanto produjera el pintor, surgía en su charla con frecuencia, ya que necesitaban nombrar algo que no comprendían, pero de lo que deseaban hablar.
