Download or read book Handbook to the Department of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum written by Louis Fagan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook to the Department of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum: With Introduction and Notices of the Various Schools: Italian, German, Dutch and Flemish, Spanish, French, and English What is there to be seen in the Print Room of the British Museum?" "What does this branch of the National Collection comprised?" are forms of a question so frequently put to the writer, both officially and privately, that he has been induced to try what he could do to supply the desired information. Here, then, is the result of his labour, and he trusts that this handbook will fulfil the purpose for which it has been prepared, namely, to point out to the lovers of art, and to the public the more important examples of Engravings and Drawings, which for upwards of a century have been accumulating in the British Museum. It is to be clearly understood that this work does not make any pretension to instruct the learned in the matters of Art which form the staple of the book. The intention is simply to offer to them and to the public a brief compilation, which, whilst indicating to some extent what is to be found in the Department of Prints and Drawings, will facilitate researches amongst the National Collection. No more need be said, by way of preface, than that the artists and their productions have been divided into six schools in the following order: - Italian, German, Dutch and Flemish, French, Spanish, and English. To these has been added a chapter on miscellaneous examples. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
