Owen Swiny: Frasi in inglese

“The fellow is whimsical and varys his prices every day; and he that has a mind to have any of his works must not seem too fond of it, for he' be ye worse treated for it both in price and painting too.”

quoted by George A. Simonson in [Antonio Canal, The Burlington Magazine, January 1922, 40, 226, https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=coo.31924015109949;view=1up;seq=49, 36–41] (quote from pp. 39–40, taken from a letter by Owen Swiny to the 2nd Duke of Richmond, concerning Canaletto)
