Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Portfolio of an Artist Almost every human being participates in some degree in these enjoyments; but in their fullest extent they are derived from the refinement of taste, and appertain to cultivated minds. The necessities of life unquestionably demand our first care and labour, but should not so em tirely enslave us that we can perceive no beauty in the graceful corn before it is cut down to furnish our tables with bread; nor should the appetite for meat engross our faculties to disregard the landscape which is animated with herds, unconscious of their doom. But chiefly is it our privilege to derive from social connexions the highest enjoyments of which our nature is susceptible, from the contemplation of beauty and innocence strength and character; form and expression grace and dignity; - in the aspect of single figures, or the endless variety of groups, produced by accident or design, in the multi tudinous occupations of our species. These are portraits to the eye and mind, or family groups, or conversation pieces, or historic compositions, -painted without affect ation or false colouring; models of perfection for the study of the artist or amateur; and pictures of life which furnish interest and embellishment to existence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Portfolio: Monographs on Artistic Subjects, With Many Illustrations Issued Periodically But it is through his temperament that the artist works; and since temperament is an influence in moral decisions, there may be a sort of second cousinship twice removed between paint and morals. Temperament works upon the landscape painter as effectively as upon the figure man; it can turn him to large forms, to savage colour, or to peddling minuteness of pattern, and glassy smoothness of pigment just as it turns a figure painter to broad fleshy types, or to sharp bony models that show their anatomical structure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Portfolio: Monographs on Artistic Subjects, With Many Illustrations When Henry VI., with his own hands, crowned Henry Beauchamp Duke of Warwick, King of the Isle of Wight, he was not so mad as is commonly believed. For though, as my Lord Coke observed in his Institutes, the king has no power to transfer the sovereignty of any part of his dominions, the Isle of Wight seems marked out, both by its position and history, for separate and peculiar consideration. It is the only part of England which has again and again been devastated by foreign invasion. There alone, on British soil, are towns and ports to which the population has never fully returned after their homes were sacked and burned by French and Spanish soldiers. The islanders, on the other hand, have more than once rallied and repulsed their invaders unaided, and for centuries maintained a separate military organisation, which often baffled such attempts at the moment of disembarkation. Whether held by hereditary petty sovereigns, as it was until the days of Edward I., or governed by wardens and captains nominated by the Crown.

We were able to trace the eh'ects of his influence upon living artists, not only in France but in England and America, and to realise better than ever before the place which he holds in the art movement of the present age.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Portfolio: Monograph on Artistic Subjects With Many Illustrations Issued Periodically But when the English Conquest was accomplished, and peace for a while followed warfare, a population also reappeared in London, consisting of traders who saw the great advantages of its situation. Prosperity began to return. London became once more a city of merchants. It was again flourishing when the heathen English were converted to Christianity by Augustine, so much so that in 604 one of his companions, Mellitus, became its first bishop, Sebert being then king. Sir Walter Besant sees in the identity of the Cockney dialect lydy for lady, &c.) with that of Essex, a proof that the new population were chiefly from the East Saxons. At first the Christianising of London seemed to be a failure. Mellitus built a cathedral, but had to flee before the heathenism into which the king's sons relapsed. The failure, however, was but temporary, and the Church became altogether triumphant. The intense sense of nationality, which has always characterised the English people, comes out in the names given to the London Churches. The greater number of them were dedicated to English saints, and the names continue to this day. One of these saints - Botolph - who had endeared himself immensely to the Londoners, went forth to n.e. England and established a great mission there, and there he died. The noble tower of Boston Botolph's town) preserves his memory in Lincoln shire. But the Londoners, in love and veneration to his memory, built Churches bearing his name at all the four gates which led towards his burial-place; three of them still remain, and the name of the fourth survives in Botolph's Lane, by Billingsgate.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge Portfolio, Vol. 1 The greater number of readers, it is hoped, Will find so much interest in the matter of the work, as to be little curious about the origin of the undertaking. To those, however, who would question what could have induced the collector to pro ject it, While other works exist similar at least as to their object, he has only to reply, that his inducement has simply been, a very strong desire to see justice done to a subject Which has long engaged his own warm affections, and has, he believes, deservedly excited a powerful interest amongst all that class whose tastes he would be most anxious to gratify.
