In this influential philosophical work, Professor Van Dyke explores the nature and purpose of painting, as well as the methods and standards of artistic excellence. Through an analysis of famous artworks and artists, he argues that beauty, harmony, and emotional expressiveness are the key criteria for evaluating painting, rather than mere realism or technique.

Excerpt from What Is Art?: Studies in the Technique and Criticism of Painting For twenty years there has been discussion of art from the point of view of the connoisseur, the collector, the museum director. It seems we are in some danger of forgetting that there is another point of view - that of the artist, the producer. We have become so interested in art as a commodity, or a curiosity, that we have possibly overlooked the fact that art may be regarded merely as art, or even as something of use and purpose. We are in further danger of forgetting that art in a state must come out of the state and represent its time and its people, and that foreign importations or methods or motives will not answer as a substitute. The gathering of art-plunder from all quarters of the globe may eventually make us a nation of experts, but never a nation of artists, nor an artistic people.
