Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great English Painters: Selected Biographies From Allan Cunningham's "Lives of Eminent British Painters" Few biographical works have deserved so well of the public as Allan Cunningham's celebrated Lives of the most Eminent British Painters. The secret of the success of the "Lives" lies in the fact that they are biographical records, narrated with sprightly vigour and discriminating intelligence; not mere critical dissertations, uninteresting to the uninitiated, subject to the indifference born of maturer judgment. Comparisons seldom really fit, whether made of a man or of a place - whether Reynolds be called the English Michael Angelo, or Edinburgh the modern Athens: but there is at anyrate some justice in the application to Cunningham of the designation, "The Scottish Vasari." In common with much of the famous record of the Italian chronicler, the main interest of the "Lives of British Painters" is concentrated upon personal details: the man is the dominant theme, the work merely incidental. This is as it should be, in a book intended for the general reader. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lives of the Most Eminent British Painters, Vol. 1 Some few of the corrections therefore are due to the author, but the greater part of the information of the foot-notes has been gained since his time. Those not marked "Ed." appeared in the former editions. Besides this work of editing, it was deemed desirable, for the further utility of a standard work, that it should be continued down to the present day. I have therefore prepared short biographies of some of the most eminent British artists who have died since Cunningham's time. Want of space has compelled the omission of many names that otherwise might well claim a place, especially those of our great water-colour painters, who have, without doubt, risen to high eminence. Possibly their lives may be added at some future time, but for the present I have been obliged to confine my work exclusively to painters in oil, selecting among these such as arc best known to fame, or who seemed most noteworthy. Continuations arc generally dull affairs, and I cannot pretend that my "Lives" are written in the same lively vein as Cunningham's: still I hope they will not be found without value and interest. And as our interest in any work is always greater if we know something of the author, I have also added a short account of Allan Cunningham himself - the sturdy Scotch stonemason, who by his own unaided exertions achieved both independence and fame, and who has written one of the best works of biography in the English language.
