Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Design and Prospectus for a National Gallery of History and Art at Washington Several illustrations of the interiors and ornamentation of The Pompeia are inserted with the following statements in support of the above opinions. During eight months since its completion, without any previous announcement, and with ignorance on the part of many of what is a Pompeian House, it has been visited by over people, whose stay has averaged between two and three hours. The most intelligent; classic professors and other scholars, have made it a daily resort. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presented in conjunction with the September 2000 exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum, this volume presents the complex story of the proliferation of the arts in New York and the evolution of an increasingly discerning audience for those arts during the antebellum period. Thirteen essays by noted specialists bring new research and insights to bear on a broad range of subjects that offer both historical and cultural contexts and explore the city's development as a nexus for the marketing and display of art, as well as private collecting; landscape painting viewed against the background of tourism; new departures in sculpture, architecture, and printmaking; the birth of photography; New York as a fashion center; shopping for home decorations; changing styles in furniture; and the evolution of the ceramics, glass, and silver industries. The 300-plus works in the exhibition and comparative material are extensively illustrated in color and bandw. Oversize: 9.25x12.25". Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR

This book was released on 2019-02-08 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggestions for a National Gallery Gallery, which might be made an appropriate termination to this side of the building. In order to give additional height and importance to the Facade when seen from Parliament Street, I propose to do away with the parapet which now divides the northern side of Trafalgar Square from the carriage road and foot pavement, and with the two flights of steps which ascend to them, and to substitute one broad flight of steps at least two thirds the breadth of the square. From all points from which the National Gallery would be seen to most advantage, the road would be concealed and the steps would appear to be the real approach to the building. This would, of course, add considerably 10 its apparent height and would give it grandeur and dignity. It must always be borne in mind that the National Gallery will be best seen from a distance as it occupies the culminating point of a long and gentle rise. Parliament Street will probably, in the course of time, assume a very different appearance from that which it now presents, and will, form one continuous broad street uniting Trafalgar Square with the houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey. It is impossible that any edifice occupying the site of the National Gallery can look well from Parliament Street when cut in half by the Nelson Column. If this column were removed and the statue of Nelson were grouped with the Lions a far more effective monument might be produced and one less absurd and incongruous than that now existing. Fountains too, of better design ought to be constructed. With these and a few other changes Trafalgar Square might be made a really handsome feature in the metropolis, instead of being as a French writer has not unjustly characterised it, a monument of the bad taste of the English nation.
