Indeed, advancing a step further on the same stage of art, we find an inclination to fixed monumental construction, the tombs, enclosed beneath hillocks of rock or earth, being rendered secure by gradually inclining the layers of stone piled one upon another, so that at last. A kind of vault arises. Other tombs have been so formed in a more simple manner, by making two stone slabs rest obliquely against each other, like the rafters of a roof.

This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of the History of Art, Vol. 1 of 2 Dr. Lubke's grundriss der kunstgeschichte was first pub lished in 1860. The eleventh edition was published in 1 891, and was really a revised edition; but it was still the old book, containing many of the characteristics of the original issue. Since 1891 much has been added to the scholar's knowledge of archaology and to the critic's perception of artistic truth; but, since 1 860, the whole point of View has changed. The history of art which is possible to-day was unthinkable in 1860; many assumptions have been proved untrue; many known facts have wholly different explana tions now, from those once thought sufficient. The amount of added fact is incredibly great and important. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Royal Academy of Arts, Vol. 1 of 2: From Its Foundation in 1768 to the Present Time; With Biographical Notices of All the Members My own surprise is that an account of the Royal Academy, combined with notices of its members, has not been published long since; and it was only after continued expectancy that such a Work would be written by an abler hand, that I ventured to undertake it feeling that every year's delay would make the task more unsatisfactory, and the information, as to the early part of the history, less accurate.

Book Handbook of the History of Painting  Vol  1 of 2

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the History of Painting, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Age of Constantine the Great to the Present Time IT is the Author's wish to supply, by means of the present hand-book, a want which he himself sen sibly experienced when he first endeavoured to ac quire a general knowledge of the early history and pro gress of the Art of Painting. He found no short and easily-intelligible guide, pointing out to the unlearned the leading styles of Art, and serving as an introduc tion to the researches of our most recent writers. The book now submitted to the indulgence of the con noisseur first consisted only of notes compiled for private study; these were augmented and corrected by the inspection of the most important specimens of Art, and the whole was finally arranged with a due regard to chronological order. The work makes no pretension to originality; its sole object, as already stated, is, to form an introduction to the more valu able productions in the literature of Art. The Author only hopes he may have succeeded in fulfilling the most obvious requisites for this end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The state ment also of the rivalry of these two painters - as far, at least, as their supposed simultaneous opera tions in the Portinari chapel gave it the colour of truth - is equally overturned by Signor Cavalca selle, who quotes from the records of the hospital attached to S. Maria N uova, that Domenico ter minated his six years' labours in the chapel in 1445, and that Andrea only commenced his in 1 45 1.

This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Art in Primitive Greece, Vol. 1 of 2: Mycenian Art Since the beginning of the present century numerous monu ments have'been brought to light, old writings have been read and translated, chronologies have been discovered, thousands of inscriptions have been deciphered, and sculptures of the most varied kind have been exhumed, giving faithful portraitures of civilizations that had their being thousands of years before our era; ancient history, therefore, has had to be entirely te-written. There is scarcely a day, so to speak, that does not add to the knowledge we already possessed as to the frequent and intimate intercourse which Hellas entertained with those Eastern nations whose territories extended to her own borders, and who were in the enjoyment of a culture little inferior to that of Babylon and Egypt at an age when the Hellenes were still semi-savages. Accordingly, no Art-history of Greece can now be undertaken without reference to Oriental art. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
