Where the spirit does not work with the hand there is no art. (Leonardo da Vinci)
Ko te tokitope, ko te whao ngau, he tohu mauri
Ko te tātaki kawai he whakaara wairua
Ko te taumata atua, takaia ki te koroawai parirau
E hikina ai i tōna taongatanga ki te matakite, ki te rangatiratanga
(Ngā Toi i roto i te Marautanga o Aotearoa, 2000)

The story behind a painting.
Read the story behind this painting by Jenny Urquart. It illustrates Andrew Motion's poem 'Setting the Scene' but also commemorates the soldier from Oxford University who died or were wounded in the First World War.
