Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Christ: As Represented in Art "Vagliami il lungo studio, e ´l grande amore." - Dante, Inf. I. 83. I do not in this book presume for a moment to intrude upon the functions of the Art Critic, or to enter into fields of technical inquiry outside the range of those studies in which my duty lies. I do not forget the rule of the younger Pliny: De pictore, sculptore, fusore judicare nisi artifex non potest. Art is, indeed, a matter of common human concern, and every man of ordinary education has a right to an opinion, if not upon its technical qualities, yet at least upon the thoughts which it conveys and the influence which it exercises over his own mind. I travelled on the Continent when I was a very young man, and from the first it was my habit to make notes - never, of course, intended for publication - on the chief pictures in the great continental galleries.
