Excerpt from Treatise on the Knowledge Necessary to Amateurs in PicturesThe abridgments that have been made, have been chie¿y on those parts of the work in which it digresses into controversial matter no longer at issue, such as the comparative merits of colour and design, or the opinions of writers in regard to the Flemish school of painting. In these, the Translator has used greater freedom, both of selec tion and arrangement, but he has, at the same time, been careful to retain throughout the tone and train of thought of the Author.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
