I met a fellow the other day who told me that it was impossible that shadows on white sand should be blue,-ultramarine,-as they are. I found out, later, that the man had been as far as Brighton beach; but he knew all about Art, confound him.
Один из них заявил мне, что невозможно, чтобы на белом песке были голубые — ультрамариновые — тени, как мы это видим, и впоследствии я узнал, что этот господин никогда не уезжал дальше Брайтона, но он, видите ли, считал себя знатоком искусства.

He had turned his back on his upright, well-organized, orderly future; he knew that he was flinging himself headlong into a gulf . . . but that did not confound him.
