Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Portraits and Modern Sketches I could have dipped into a style higher than this in which I have discoursed, and could have adorned all things more than here I have seemed to do; but I dared not. God did not play in tempting me; neither did I play when I sunk, as it were, into a bottomless pit, when the pangs of hell took hold on me; wherefore, I may not play in relating of them, but be plain and simple, and lay down the thing as it was.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictures and Painters: Essays Upon Art; The Old Masters and Modern Artists But few words are necessary to introduce the following papers upon the fine arts, from the North American Review, the Massachusetts Quarterly Review, the American Review. They evince so great an extent of knowledge, and so much maturity of judgment, in respect to the subjects of which they treat, and so much learning generally, that their republication cannot but tend to the diffusion of correct ideas upon Am; and, as a consequence, the wider appreciation of its importance. A concentration of public attention is wanted to uphold American Artists, and insure for them that measure of favor to which they are justly entitled. Without government aid, or adequate public appreciation, they can neither bestow time upon their works, nor give scope to their genius.

The expression which color conveys cannot always be relied upon; therefore, engravings are not at such a disadvantage com pared with paintings or miniatures as we might hastily assume. Besides the flattering tints put on by the painter, his sitter might be, and often was, guilty of a previous painting.

Book Synopsis The Artists of America by : C. Edwards Lester
Download or read book The Artists of America written by C. Edwards Lester and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-07 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Artists of America: A Series of Biographical Sketches of American Artists; With Portraits and Designs on Steel The immediate object of this Series of Biographical Sketches, is to make Our Artists and their Works better known at home. Abroad, this is not necessary, for there they have always been better known, and better appreciated than in their own country. The names of such men as West, Allston, Durand, and Powers, are a sufficient pledge of the truth of this statement. While every American of taste, and of national feeling, is proud of Our Artists, he blushes when this fact is told. It does not re ect much credit upon us, it seems to me, to have it said, and with too much truth too, that no American Artist can get bread at home till he has won fame abroad. I have long believed that the insensibility of the nation to the claims of Art and Artists was more owing to a lack of information on these subjects, than to any, perhaps all other causes; and I have long desired to see this want supplied with some work, uniting beauty of execution and cheapness of price, with authenticity of facts, to secure for it general circulation. Artists themselves will not do it, although well qualified for the task; perhaps they could not do it without suffering, however unjustly, unkind imputations. No one else seems inclined to make an attempt, and I have resolved to try it myself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
