Expressing his displeasure with the work of some of his peers; criticizing Jones [Burne-Jones], who "with all his power paints still as weakly as a woman;" criticizing him for being "paralyzed for years by your love of the Greek style--you never made an entirely honest, complete, unaffected study of anything;" considering his own position in the world of art and art history.
