Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Enamelling: A Comparative Account of the Development and Practice of the Art This is not a book for the learned, but for artists, craftsmen, students, and lovers of enamelling. As to the history of the subject, I know enough to assume no personal authority upon dates and derivations. All I have set myself to do, so far as they are concerned, is to put into handy, readable, and easily intelligible shape the gist of what I have learnt from Kondakow, Von Falke, Franks, Labarte, and other learned but less helpful specialists. As to the practice of the art, I may claim a closer acquaintance with technique, with vitreous colour, and especially with design, than belongs to the usual equipment of the scholar; and I have tried, not so much to map out with impossible precision the direct but in any case very problematical development of enamelling, as to find out precisely where we are, to take, as it were, stock of past accomplishment, with a view always to fresh enterprise in art and workmanship. None but a rather dense or a very self-satisfied devotee of modernity can help seeing the need of some such preliminary to original work.
