Summary of A Beautiful World
A Beautiful World is about how Grandma Moses thought the world should be.
“In the past, Moses told an interviewer that he liked pretty things the best. “If you don’t like the picture you paint, why bother? Think really hard until you come up with something really pretty, and then paint it. I like to paint old-time things, like bridges, mills, and hostelries from long ago. There are only a few of these old-time homes left, and they’re going fast. I do them all from memory, and most of them are just daydreams, so to speak.
