Oh, it's a joke all right. But I don't believe the writer was joking in the sense that you and I might understand joking. I think he was perfectly serious about it, and the lighter comments were just that: a few scattered, involuntary rays of reality creeping reflexively back into his flights of ecstasy.

Art criticism often really is that vacuous. Really. And they mean it. It rang completely true to my ears.

"Partly because the colours were confused..."

I'm inclined to attribute that to one of two possible causes:

1. We are dealing with a connoisseur who is colorblind; or,

2. Truth be told, he never really paid that much attention to the actual painting itself, and his mind sort of wandered off in search of something more stimulating to focus on, such as what he was about to say next...
