Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Masters Great artist of the past as a free agent, early possessed of all the power and development acquired by long work against outside pressure, and to think of him as imposing the form of his ideas upon an easy world. Hence, sometimes we think of Albrecht D'urer as bringing Teutonic art into Italy, while, of course, he is nothing more than a German student going to the land of greater art. We throw back into the early position of the great man the image of his full development; we make him out as conscious from the beginning of all his capacities. Instead of recognising in him the same laws that belong to other developments, we insist on his being all of one piece - as if, like Minerva, he had sprung all armed from the brain of Jupiter. In short, we forget that these men had to die long ago to obtain the authority which they hold to - day. It is possible that none of them achieved their best work, or carried out their intentions in full. Rubens and Raphael may have had some such chance, but we know that we see in Michelangelo and Rembrandt the expression of a struggle against outside necessities. To give a full account of the life of any great artist the history of each piece of work should be taken up as we take up the story of a general's campaign. I have not expressly stated these points in the brief essays. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great English Masters However, it is true, that each epoch of history of any of the civilized nations, has seen a certain amount of art, but an art only, which was created by the art of the time the new art, which in universal history, alone can be considered. Each nation is limited in its character and in its creative powers. As soon as everybody, living in its midst, has brought out everything in his ability, something new must take the vacated place, something, which may possess peculiarities with new possibilities, with enough saved-up force, to realize them too. Other nationalities will perhaps follow, because this novel art will satisfy their longing, or because it lies so much in the line of that general developement, which, so mysteriously ties together mankind of a certain period. This principle may be expressed also in the Following manner: The demands of an era are felt irrespective of nationality, but one nation only is always predestined to fulfil these demands. The English nation was the predestined one in the eighteenth century. It was a period of universal revolutions, not simply changes, such as are demanded by each generation, but revolutions, demanding a new standard of humanity, the modern humanity and all forms of life and art, had to be revised from the beginning. The civilisation upon the Continent, presided over by France, was beautiful and rich, but sterile. A finish, such as was demanded by the future could be obtained only, from England.

D. 1200 to the Best Periods of Italian Art, and Deposited in the "Institute of Fine Arts," 625, Broadway, New York More than forty of the pictures have been engraved on cop per by Vincenzo Stanghi, a. Pupil of Raphael Moxghen, for art-studies, in order to give an idea, so far as composition and general character are concerned, of the progress of art during several centuries in Italy. Those, therefore, who cherish the old masters, will have an opportunity, not only of studying the pictures themselves, but of taking away with them very carefully prepared outlines, with partial shadings, of many of the most interesting specimens. It should be borne in mind, that the larger number of these paintings were old before America was discovered; and necessuily they bear the mks of time. The newness and freshness of a modem painting would be sadly out of keeping on an ancient picture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Floral Symbolism of the Great Masters This little book has been written for the pleasure of those amateurs who are more interested in the idea which inspires a picture than in the picture's workmanship. Naturally, the more accomplished the artist, the more clearly and attractively is he able to set forth his meaning; but with art criticism this book has nothing to do, and the attributions are, for the most part, simply those of the official catalogues of the respective galleries. To explain completely even so small a branch of Christian symbolism as that of flowers, an exhaustive knowledge is required of the development of Christian theology, and of the varying force with which different doctrines appealed at different times to the public mind. But still, these notes may be of some interest to those who care to trace in the work sanctioned by the Church and reverenced by the people the history of Western idealism, and who are sometimes puzzled by the conventions employed by the Masters to illustrate the Divine Mysteries.
