Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Descriptive and Historical Catalogue of the Pictures in the National Gallery: With Biographical Notices of the Painters, Foreign Schools In using this catalogue in the Gallery, reference should be made from the painter´s name on the frame of the picture to the corresponding name at the head of the page in the catalogue, where the order is alphabetical. When more than one designation occurs, as for example, Sebastiano del Pionrbo, the name to be looked for in the catalogue may be found by referring to the number in the Index list, page 8, corresponding with the number of the picture. The same hat may be consulted, if the name of the master on the picture-frame should not be easily legible. The plan of the catalogue is historical, as well as descriptive. Biographical notices of the several painters precede, in most cases, the descriptions of their works: the history, as far as known, of each picture is also given; together with its dimensions, the material on which it is executed, and other details which may sometimes serve to identify it. Among the sources of information which have reference to the history of the art, the opinions of eminent critics on the merits of particular masters, and of remarkable works, have not been overlooked. A certain degree of historical knowledge, as regards both the art itself and its criticism, is perhaps indispensable for the due appreciation of some works; the merit of which, depending on the time and circumstances of their production, is in a great measure relative. The information thus offered, without-superseding individual predilections, may sometimes assist in the formation of a correct judgment, which is the basis of a correct taste.
