Both the one and the other were perhaps due to another cause.
That many accessories contributed to the wonderful result I do not doubt. But mainly and essentially, every art and method, every device and habit, in the language of Aristotle, has an end; and is modelled upon the end at which it aims ; and by that end its greatness or its little- ness is measured. Now the climax of all art, it seems to be agreed, is the rendering of the human form. What, then, could be so calculated to raise this r...epresentation to the acme of its excellence, as the belief that the human form was not only the tabernacle, but the original and proper shape, the inseparable attribute, of Deity itself ? In the quaint language of George Herbert, He that aims the moon Shoots higher much, than he that means a tree.
And again as Tennyson has sung : It was my duty to have loved the highest : We needs must love the highest when we see it, Not Lancelot, nor another. 2 It was this perpetual presentation of the highest to the 1 Pausanias, in divers passages.
