Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The artist, who strives as such to fulfil his mission, may not forget that he has an equally earnest task to perform as a simple human being. He should be a worshipper of Nature, whose ever-new marvels are disclosed to him only to lead him to the innermost religious truths, to mildness, goodness, charity, and justice toward everything that lives and moves upon this bounteous earth.<br><br>He should endeavour to promote the universal welfare, he should try to give aid to those who want. Only as a transient guest may he live and act on this earth, of whose benefits he is gratefully conscious and therefore should humbly enjoy.<br><br>He takes upon himself as an artist to aspire to the highest in art, to become worthy of it by complete self-sacrifice, as he assumes the duty of attaining to the noblest in human life.<br><br>His deeds, intellect, and will must witness eloquently to his worth to all those who stand near him or who gaze upwards at him with admiration.<br><br>Only thus can he discharge a small part of the great debt he owes for all that Nature permitted him to attain as artist and as man, and render the thanks due those who stood by him loyally or who influenced his artistic and human development.
