Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Journeys to the Homes of Eminent Artists If he sketched a house he showed whether the roof was shingled or made of straw or tile; his trees te vealed the texture of the bark and showed the shape of the leaf, and every flower contained its pistil and stamens, and told the man knew his botany. Two of his pictures done in Rome in his twenty-ninth year, The Coliseum and The Forum, now in the Louvre, are good pictures - complete in detail, pains taking, accurate, hard and tight in technique. They are bomb-proof - beyond criticism-absolutely safe. (have a care, Corot. Keep where you are and you will become an irreproachable painter. That is to say, you will paint just like a hundred other French painters. There will be a market for your wares, the critics will approve, and at the Salon your work will never be either enskyed nor consigned to the catacombs. Society will court you, fair ladies will smile and encourage. You will be a success; your name will be safely pigeon holed among the unobjectionable ones and before your wind-combed shock of hair has turned to silver, you will be supplanted by a new crop of fashion's favorites. T is a fact worth noting that the two greatest landscape painters of all time were city-born and city-bred. Turner was born in London, the son of a barber, and Fate held him so in leash that he never got beyond the sound of Bow Bells until he was a man grown. Corot was born in Paris.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Journeys to the Homes of Eminent Artists: Velasquez Here be, among writing men, those who please the populace, and also that Elect Few who inspire writers. When Horace Greeley gave his daily mes sage to the world, every editor of any power in America paid good money for the privilege of being a subscriber to the Tribune. The Tribune had no ex change list - if you wanted the Tri bune you had to buy it, and the writers bought it because it wound up their clocks - set them a-going - and they either carefully abstained from mention ing Greeley, or else went in right valiant ly and exposed his vagaries. Greeley may have been often right, and we now know he was often wrong, but he infused the breath of life into his words - his sentences were a challenge - he made men think. And the reason he made men think was because he himself was a thinker. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

I remember that I thought so little of the volume that I read it with a lead pencil and marked it all up and down and over, and filled the fly leaves with random thoughts and disfigured the margins with a few foolish sketches.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Journeys to the Homes of Eminent Artists, Vol. 10: Gainsborough Ost biographies are written with intent to make a man the demi-god, or to damn him as rogue who has hoodwinked a world. Of the first mentioned class, Weems' Life of Washington must ever stand as the true type. The author is so fearful that he will not think well of his subject that he conceals every attribute of our common humanity, and gives us a being almost devoid of eyes, ears, organs, dimensions, passions. Next to Weems, in point of literary atrocity comes John S. C. Abbott whose life of Napoleon is a splendid concealment of the man.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Journeys to the Homes of Eminent Artists, Vol. 10: Raphael; January 1902; No; 1 HE term pre-raphaelite traces a royal lineage to William Morris. Just what the word really meant, William Morris was not sure, yet he once expressed the hope that he would some day know, as a thousand industrious writers were labor ing to make the matter plain. Seven men helped William Morris to launch the phrase by forming themselves into an organization which they were pleased to call the pre-raphaelite Brotherhood. The word brotherhood has a lure and a promise for every lonely and tired son of earth. And burne-jones pleaded for the prefix because it was like holy writ: it gave everybody an opportunity to read anything into it that he desired. Of this I am very sure, in the Pre Raphaelite Brotherhood there was no lack of appreciation for Raphael. In fact, there is proof positive that burne-jones and Madox Brown studied him with profit, and loved him so wisely and well that they laid impression paper on his poses. This would have been good and sufficient reason for hating the man; and possibly this accounts for their luminous ashes of silence concerning him.

He died in 1882; Curtis followed ten years later. But their works live after them for beau tiful lives and great thoughts endure. They make that sweet minor chord in the choir invisible, whose music is the gladness of the world. Curtis was in his twenty-ninth year when he wrote this sketch; Emerson was fifty - his fame secure. No living writer, no matter how richly gifted, could write so precious a monograph as this on the same theme; 't would lack that quaint old flavor and fragrance, as of lavender and thyme.
