" For he was a man who drank and bathed in colours, who indulged his lust for colour somewhat to the neglect of form — even of good form. This it was that had turned his genius so wholly to eastern art and imagery; to those bewildering carpets or blinding embroideries in which all the colours seem fallen into a fortunate chaos, having nothing to typify or to teach. "
