Ironwork, Vol. 2

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from Ironwork, Vol. 2: Being a Continuation of the First Handbook, and Comprising From the Close of the Mediæval Period to the End of the Eighteenth Century, Excluding English Work All that science and technical education can do to advance the smith is being taught, but no succinct account of the develop ment, bearings, and possibilities of smithcraft, as an art, has been written. The mutual in¿uences of different art-centres upon each other, and the inter-relations of the smithcraft of different countries, have not been traced, neither has any serious analysis of the characteristics which distinguish the ironwork of each country at different periods been hitherto attempted. The large amount of research required for such a work has doubtless deterred any competent writer from undertaking it. The four years that have elapsed since the first part was written, have in fact, scarcely sufficed to collect the data for the present slight pioneer work, which it is hoped, however, may suffice to lay before the black smith, his employers, and teachers, so much as it is essential they should have at command, if their craft is to keep abreast of such fellow-crafts as the gold and silver smiths', potters', cabinet makers', or weavers'.
