“Life is short, and art is long," reads the Hippocratic aphorism.
And the endurance of art summons humankind to look beyond the
immediate chores of our daily existences toward the far grander horizons
of knowledge and growth."
Jeffrey J. Schnapp, Director of Stanford Humanities Lab at Stanford University
