    "Two men I honour"‚ said Carlyle‚ "and no third. First‚ the toil-worn Craftsman that with earth-made implements laboriously conquers the earth and makes it men. Venerable to me is the rugged face‚ all weather-tanned." When Carlyle said this‚ few people had any thought for the labourer or manual labour as particularly dignified.

The aforementioned is logical in that most people (even today) who can afford art are those who are well off and have some type of surplus currency that can afford the luxuries. Because of
