Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the British School of Painting My aim in compiling a short History of the British School of Painting is to supply an apparent want in the Art Literature of the day. All our recent valuable Text Books and Essays upon Art pre-suppose more accurate information respecting the names, characteristics and principal works of the painters of the British School than is to be found in a concise form, within the reach of every art student. Although fully conscious that I have rather collected the materials for a history than deftly welded them into one, I trust that my foundation of facts will be solid enough to enable some future historian to construct upon it a more graceful edifice. If, in the meantime, my labours prove of service in bridging over the gap, I shall feel amply repaid. I regret the accidental omission of the names of several excellent artists. This and other short comings I hope to remedy should a second edition be called for. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Glasgow School of Painting As this volume (which is the first of a projected series dealing with modern schools of painting) has been written by one Glasgow painter and prefaced by another, by their own wish no examples of the work of either are included herein. It need hardly be said that the term school in the title has no reference to any educational establishment, but is used in the sense recognised by historians of Art. That Continental galleries of the first rank for some time past have been purchasing paintings by members of the Glasgow School, to add to their permanent col lections, is clear evidence that its importance is fully recognised by foreign experts, even if it is not as well known to the British public as its merits deserve.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of England, for School Use Situation.-the British Isles lie just off the west coast Of Europe.

Some of them, like the Shetlands and the Orkneys, the Hebrides, Skye, Mull, the Isle of Man, and the Isle of Wight, are large enough to furnish food and Shelter to human beings, and have been inhabited from time immemorial.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of Painters of the English School, Vol. 1 of 2: With Critical Notices of Their Works, and an Account of the Progress of Art in England The opinion is at last gaining ground that Art is no longer an alien on English soil; and the time appears to have arrived when some interest will be felt in a narrative of its progress among us. An artist may now without fear of presumption speak of The English School, a school rich in fine works, whose painters are remarkable for the national character, as well as for the individual originality, of their genius.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dutch School of Painting The artistic energy of a great nation is not a mere accident, of which we can neither determine the cause nor foresee the result. It is, on the contrary, the resultant of the genius and character of the people the reflection of the social conditions under which it was called into being; and the product of the civilisation to which it owes its birth. All the force and activity of a race appear to be concentrated in its Art; enterprise aids its growth; appreciation ensures its development; and as Art is always grandest when national prosperity is at its height, so it is pre-eminently by its Art that we can estimate the capabilities of a people.
