"Cadmus truly felt that much of what was happening in the art world of the postwar era was worthy of the term [evil], and seems to have equated the madness of the art world with the madness of the nuclear era in the painting The House That Jack Built. In Cadmus's opinion, not only had a generation of skilled artists been rejected by the new critical establishment but also, and more importantly, an entire humanist tradition in the visual arts was being discarded." (J. Spring, Paul Cadmus: The Male Nude, New York, 2002, p. 41)
