Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Memoir of George Higinbotham: An Australian Politician and Chief Justice of Victoria My picture is finished, and I can add no more little touches to it. No longer can I paint out this bit nor paint in that, nor can I add brighter colours to the background to make the central figure clearer. Probably every painter, when he reaches this point, recognises in, himself a mixed feeling, - pleasure that his work is completed, and doubt whether it expresses all that he, wished it to express. With me the doubt is the stronger feeling. I know that I have not accomplished what I wished and that I shall not satisfy friends and admirers: but yet I trust that the portrait is like and that the surroundings are made clear. I have done what I could. I wish heartily to thank the man friends who have, helped in my work. The names of some are given at various points in the book: the names of others are withheld at their own request. Without this help, which was readily given, I could not have done as much as I have. I thank all who have helped me with sympathy, with advice, with information. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
