The Philosophy of Painting: A Study of the Development of the Art, from Prehistoric to Modern Times (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 2017 - 254 pages Excerpt from The Philosophy of Painting: A Study of the Development of the Art, From Prehistoric to Modern Times Aintings have been catalogued to death. There are enough histories of painting, such as they are; and as for dissertation and criticism, there is no end. It might seem presumptuous, therefore, to write anything further on a subject that has received so much attention from authors and scribblers alike. Perhaps it is. At all events, it has been done, and here it is. A long-winded apology could make it no better; and explanations would not excuse its defects. If it has any merits, they will take care of themselves.
