“The gothic profusion of detail and imagery gives no clue to the size of the work and one can as easily imagine it on a large wall as the scant 7 x 10 inches it measures… [Ynez] Johnston’s pictures ignore our comforting sense of proportion and perspective, inviting the spectator to enter another world where all visual events enjoy equal credibility.”

- Jules Langsner, in Arts and Architecture, October 1950
