Book excerpt: Excerpt from Painting Popularly Explained With Historical Sketches of the Progress of the Art Although a degree of imitation is necessary in a work of art for the conveyance of thought, the quantity or exactitude of imitation in a picture forms by no means a measure of the amount of thought or emotion which it may awaken, apart from the simple ideas which the mind receives through the painted resemblance of natural objects. Indeed, literal imi tatien is sometimes so much dissociated from imagination, that Haydon went so far as to say, that 'the power of representing things as they are, constituted merely the painter of domestic art;' adding, with characteristic bold ness and enthusiasm, while that of restoring them to what they were at creation constitutes the great painter in High Art.' When we reflect, however, upon the inexhaustible richness of nature, a more humble spirit of imitation appears not only excusable, but laudable. Modern pre-raphaelitism is on this ground - viz., that of protest - chiefly serviceable to art. For it is a mistake to suppose that artistic imitation can ever be entirely mechanical, that it is only a means to an end, or that it is but as language is to thought. The eye has its own poetry, and the faithful rendering of the simplest object in nature has a special value and beauty that touches some of the pleasantest chords of our being. Still we must unhesitatingly give the preference to those works in which we have not only the inherent and intrinsic poetry of art, but also subject and incident conveying thought, expression, and sentiment. Moreover, though art is finite, yet nearly every branch is too comprehensive in its means for one man to do justice to all its capabilities; hence a larger measure than usual of the judgment and taste necessarily shown in selection and adaptation is justly allowed to distinguish and elevate the artist. 'style in the highest sense arises from the peculiar bias the artist takes in this selection and adap tatien. But style' is also applied to the several methods of painting materially considered; for the painter is a curious combination of poet and mechanic, as his picture is a curious compromise between a thought and a thing.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Text-Book Of The History Of Painting This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of the History of Painting: From 1200 1900 A. D Since lack of perspective often prevents students from reaping the benefit of their exertions, the author has endeavored to present here an arrangement which will assist them in obtaining a comprehensive View of the whole field of painting. The task of grouping and grading all the artists was one of such responsibility that the author submitted the proof sheets to various men, and arranged that each table should pass through the hands of at least one art critic, one executing artist, one art historian, and one director of an art school. He also availed himself of the kind services of specialists in preparing the pronouncing vocabulary of foreign names. In explanation of the general plan of the book the following points deserve mention. I. Artists are listed by their family names unless they are generally known by other names. In such cases the List Of Artists contains cross references. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
