Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art: Its Laws, and the Reason for Them: Collected, Considered and Arranged: For General and Educational Purposes Of course, the writer of this volume does not claim to have discovered any new principle of Art, but simply to have brought within the reach of the common intellect truths ordinarily unobserved by the mass, ever availing himself of the better knowledge of those who have written upon Art whenever he thought it could be appropriated to the most complete illustra tion of the subject. He has taken nothing, however, upon mere report, but only after a critical examination of the evi dence to its truth and the exercise of his own judgment. There was ample room and demand for thought and originality in thus attempting to popularize the great leading ideas of Art, divesting them of technical obscurities, and rendering them intelligible to others than practical artists. It will be seen that a much greater space has apparently been given to painting than to sculpture and architecture 5 but it is only seemingly so, for, being the first to be discussed, principles are evolved equally affecting all the elegant arts, and a repetition was to be studiously avoided in a work of this description; and, for the same reason, only those forms of architecture have been considered that developed some new principle, or exhibited some new feature in good taste and of practical importance.

Book excerpt: PREFACE. THE design of the author of this volume is to render some assistance to those who desire to acquire a knowledge uf the principles of taste as exhibited in the peat productions of ancient and modern Art. An acquaintance with those principles is now getting to be regarded as a necessary part of polite education but a great hindrance to obtaining such knowledge has been the want of a test-book in which those principles are concisely ancl intelligibly discussed, and illustrated by reference to particular esamples in the painting, sculpture, and architecture of the past and the present. Attempts have been made to remedy this evil, but nerer with much success first, because the authors of them liacl no practical knowledge of art and second, because, like most critics of these subjects, they gave a transcript merely of the emotions which morks of art arakelled in themselves, and not the reasons why they were worthy of the admiration of the beholder, or, at best, stating the rules of art, but v-holly omitting the reasons for those rules, or that which constitutes the Philosophy of Art. In the present volume the attempt has been made to discover those reasons or requiremeits of the human constitution and, if success has attended the effort, all will have been accomplished in that direction that could have been reasonably expected, for human inquiry cannot be estended beyond it. Of course, the writer of this volume does not claim to have discovered any new principle of Art, but sinply to have brought within the reach of the common intellect truths ordinarily unobserved by the mass, ever unvailing himself of the better knowledge
