Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contemporary French Painters an Essay Since the publication of A Painter's Camp, the author's labors, as a writer on art, have been confined to occasional articles in various periodicals, and the art-criticism in the Saturday Review. Projects of a more important kind have been entertained in this interval; but, with one exception, have always been abandoned for the same reason, - the difficulty of writing anything of use without illustrations so nu merous and costly as to alarm the prudence even of liberal publishers. The present Essay, in which there is little detailed description of works that the reader has not seen, and which is accompanied by illustra tions sufficiently abundant to give a good idea of some of the principal artists mentioned, is a realiza tion of the author's wishes, so far as is compatible with the smallness of its scale and the imperfections of his knowledge. It appears to be more and more evident that criticisms of pictures which the reader has not seen are of no use, and that it is a waste of time to write them. This discouraging fact has not.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern French Painters: Illustrated With Over 100 Plates It is too early yet to inquire whether, among the artists here under consideration, there are some who may prove some day the peers of those great names. But of one thing I feel certain: if the not insignificant period of artistic history of which this book treats has brought forth one or several artists worthy of those Masters, it is among those I have studied here that he or they will be found.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great French Painters: And the Evolution of French Painting From 1830 to the Present Day Ome explanation will be necessary to justify the composition of this book. Its programme is vast; it is to compress into a rapid sketch seventy years that have given to the French School some of its greatest masters and an imposing number of artists of high merit. In what spirit, in what order are we to consider them? This, for the sake of clearness, had better be defined at the outset.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern French Masters: A Series of Biographical and Critical Reviews HE painters' contention that no one but a painter is a com petent judge of a picture is not a new one. It was the Greek painter Apelles who advised the cobbler to stick to his last. Keep to the shop, friend, and do not attempt to criti cize what you do not understand. The rebuke was possibly deserved, but it might be used by almost any one in defense of his particular craft or trade. Had Apelles complained to the cobbler that his shoes did not fit him and were not well made, the cobbler could have retorted in kind: Keep to your palette, friend; you know nothing about shoes. In the same way it might be said that one who eats a dinner is not to criticize it because he is not a cook, and that the only competent judges of the poem and the novel are the poet and the novelist. The reductio ad absurdum of the principle might lead us to think that only brother craftsmen are to say that there are too few latchets to the goloshes, or that the sauce or the poem is too sweet. Yet the contention is not so absurd as might at first appear. The painter asserts a half-truth, if not more. He has mastered his craft, and he certainly knows more about it than one who has not mastered it. He knows the limits of materials and methods, he knows what can be done, and he knows after it is done whether it has been well done. In comparison with him the outsider is a mere tyro. The painter is undoubtedly the better critic of the technical features of painting. Few artists of rank at the present day will claim more than this. They are willing to concede that the final result of a work of art. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gems of French Art: A Series of Carbon-Photographs From the Pictures of Eminent Modern Artists, With Remarks on the Works Selected, and an Essay on the French School This variety of character spreading out from a single studio may be taken as the visible expression of that variety in subject, treatment, and motive, which the French critics arrogate to themselves as belonging peculiarly to the national art. English art, they say, is always the same; the clever handling, the bright colours, the indispensable pretty girl's face, and the lz'lz'le clog, must be in every picture, whether of genre or history, whether tragic, comic, or conversational! The little dog I cannot always find, but the pretty girl's face and the bright colours, I fear, we must admit as almost universal on the walls of our exhibition rooms, and in the works of the painters who get most success with us. But on the other side of the water it is certainly not so. There are in Paris indeed many painters Whose lives are devoted to the production of pretty faces, but they are not less distinct than other classes of artists, perhaps a good deal more so: they have their circle, which is not the best. The charm of mere execution also standing in the place of insight and quiet mastery is not wanting, is indeed carried to monstrous excess on the canvas of such men as Courbet, the landscape painter, but these are at once distinguishable, while with us every landscape must be painted with a certain freedom of brush and no more, while the green and the grey pictures, so fresh and true to these latitudes, and so distinctive of French taste in landscapes, are nowhere to be seen. The bright colours we must have and the clever execution, and a spring landscape must keep its place, as they say, beside the figure picture, its neighbour, in which a red shawl and a yellow gown are the leading features.
