Lectures were given to a class of National Scholars at Kensington Museum, and they are published in the hope that they may be found useful to a larger circle of students, and perhaps not uninteresting to more advanced artists, who may wish to turn their attention toO rnament. With the exception of theL ecture onE ducation, which has been amplified, no additions and few emendations have been made, for what they might have gained in polish they would probably have lost in directness and force. They form the first part of an intended series, and are to be regarded simply as introductory to theL ectures on A rchitecture, Ornament, and the Human Figure, which I hope to be able to prepare for the press at some future time. The practical lessons on the principles of ornament were supplemented by constant reference to the magnificent collections immediately at hand. The illustrations are but a sorry substitute for such an advantage as this, but it is hoped they may help to explain my meaning to those who are not fortunate enough to enjoy a similar privilege.
