v1.c6.s17.164
"There is in the Hindu system nothing complicated or difficult to understand or remember, but like every other canon of artistic proportion, these methods are no more capable of producing works of art in unskilled hands than are any other aids or methods . . . . These śāstras are the common property of Hindu artisans, whether of northern or southern India." Mr. V. A. Smith.
