Above, there is the danger of passing into the formlessness of pure wisdom. If one attains the formless one attains, in a certain sense, the zenith of the artistic. One has dared to press forward boldly to the abyss where art ceases, where the colors disappear in light, and where, if one were to proceed, one could only draw. But drawing is not painting. Thus the upper part of the picture approaches the realm of wisdom. And the more one is able to express, in the sensory world, this wisdom-filled realm, and the more the angels might be taken for billowy clouds shimmering in light, the greater the art.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture VI","site_heading":"Painting and the Spiritual Radiance of Color","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Oben beginnt die Gefahr, daß es übergeht in das rein Weisheitsvolle, das Gestaltlose. Erringt man wirklich dieses, daß man das Gestaltlose noch hält, daß es auch gestaltlos ist, so wird das gerade, ich möchte sagen nach der einen Seite, nach dem einen Pol die Vollendung des Künstlerischen, weil es ein kühn Künstlerisches ist, weil man sich vorwagt bis zum Abgrund, wo die Kunst aufhört, wo man die Farben verschwimmen läßt vom Lichte, wo man, wenn man weitergehen wollte, nur anfangen könnte zu zeichnen. Aber zeichnen ist nicht malen. Also da nach oben nähert man sich dem Weisheitsvollen. Und man ist ein um so größerer Künstler, je mehr man das Weisheitsvolle noch hereinbekommt in das Sinnliche, je mehr man, wenn ich mich wiederum konkret ausdrücken will, die Möglichkeit hat, daß die Engel, die man malt, dennoch auch als geballte Wolken angesprochen werden können, die so und so im Lichte schimmern und dergleichen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":176,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/276/1923-06-09/p017"}],"english":["GA 276/1923-06-09/p022"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":176,"en_words":130,"ratio":0.74,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.74,"band":"short","note":"This witness is materially shorter than the original (below 75%).
