Is a chair finely made tragic or comic? Is the John Cowan
portrait of Mona Lisa good if I desire to see cowan at ccil.org
it? Is the bust of Sir Philip Crampton lyrical, http://ccil.org/~cowan
epical or dramatic? If a man hacking in fury
at a block of wood make there an image of a cow,
is that image a work of art? If not, why not? --Stephen Dedalus
