"Understood in its metaphysical sense, Beauty is one of the manifestations of the Absolute Being. Emanating from the harmonious rays of the Divine plan, it crosses the intellectual plane to shine once again across the natural plane, where it darkens into matter." —Jean Delville |

Jean Delville (1867 – 1953) was a Belgian symbolist painter, writer, and occultist. He founded the 'Salon d’Art Idealiste', which is considered the Belgian equivalent to the Parisian Rose and Cross Salon and the Pre-Raphaelite movement in London. He is perhaps best-known for his drawing The Idol of Perversity.
Other well-known paintings include The Portrait of Mrs. Stuart Merrill, Satan's Treasures, The Angel of Splendour and The School of Plato.
