Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art in England IT will be readily understood that this little volume does not affect to set forth anything like a formal history of the rise and progress of Art in England. The fitting treatment of such a theme would need much more space - not to mention other requirements - than I have here at command. I have designed merely to submit in a manner that may, I trust, be acceptable to the general reader, and not wholly without value to the student, some few excerpts and chapters from the chronicles of the nation's Art, with biographical studies Of certain of its artists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anecdotes of Painting in England The establishment of a society for the encouragement of arts will pro duce great benefits before they are perverted to mischiefs. The boun ties bestowed by that society for facilitating the necessaries of life to the poor, for encouraging the use of own drugs and materials, or for naturalizing those of other countries, are bestowed on noble principles and with patriotic views. That society does not neglect even the elegancies of life. Arts that are innocent in themselves, and beneficial to the country, either by adding value to our productions, or by drawing riches, as they invite strangers to visit us, are worthy the attention of good citizens; and in all those lights that society acts upon a national and extensive plan.

Book Synopsis Art in England During the Elizabethan and Stuart Periods (Classic Reprint) by : Aymer Vallance

This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art in England During the Elizabethan and Stuart Periods Nor was the spirit of Hamanism in letters so closely allied with, nor so propitious to the Renaissance as is claimed for it. Had such really been the case the Universities, as chief seats of learning in the Kingdom, must have been the first to be affected by it and would be bearing today visible tokens of the same in the aspect of their buildings. But, to judge by the evidence which those buildings afford, the very opposite is the truth. It was in academic Oxford that the practice of Gothic, ailing and doomed, it must be confessed, but alive still, lingered longest. Thus, in 1640 (that is after an interval of nearly three centuries from the first appearance of fan - vaulting, in the Cloisters at Gloucester), an all but nameless architect from London produced the magnificent entrance to the hall at Christ Church; a feat which, but that it is attested by incontrovertible record, no one would ever have credited to so recent a date. The chapels of Wadha'm and Jesus Colleges contain windows (1612 and 1636 respectively) almost as astonishing for their period.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old England: Its Scenery, Art, and People I do not profess in these pages to present much that is new or comprehensive in relation to so well known a country as England; but I have striven to draw a faithful though rapid picture of the English portion of the island, going from Tweed mouth to Land's End, touching upon nearly every county, and making the entire circuit of the land. The English Cathedrals have particularly attracted me, and I have loved to linger in their majestic shadows; and for the sake of younger readers, some account has been given of the history and progress of Architecture in England. I have everywhere spoken with the freedom which an American is accustomed to exercise upon all subjects, and yet in no spirit of bitterness or hostility, but, on the contrary, in a spirit of rever ence and love for the great land of our fathers.

If, for example, someone with his finger on Shakespeare's play should say to me that Macbeth in such circumstances would not have done so and so, my answer would be that in fact Macbeth did so and there is an end of it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The AEsthetic Movement in England Now up to a certain point, the theory that beauty is apparent only to some, is perfectly sound, for most persons will agree with Kant, that there can be no strict mathematical definition, or science of beauty in nature, art, poetry or music, inasmuch as beauty is not altogether a property of objects or sounds, but is relative to the hates and faculties brought to bear upon them. Illustrations of the truth of this axiom will occur to every one it is founded upon the old old truism, tastes dryer. The {esthetes recognise this truth to the fullest extent, but having first laid down certain general principles, they have endeavoured to elevate taste into a scientific system, the correlation of the arts being a main feature of the scheme they even go so far as to decide what shall be considered beautiful, and those who do not accept their ruling are termed Philistines, and there is no hepe for them.
