A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Whatever is beautiful and true, and within the grasp of his own comprehension, instinctively appeals to the little child. His eyes are daily opening upon a world of law and symmetry, and he is a part of it and responds to its unity, even before he is able to formulate the impressions wrought upon his plastic mind. If he misses the best that the world offers during his fairest years, he loses much which should influence his later life. With this in mind we have here presented copies of many famous paintings. The world has looked upon them and pronounced them worthy of praise, and now we bring them before the little child. In selecting these pictures, such have been chosen as are allied to child life and to nature. The child sees himself or his surroundings in the picture, so that it becomes filled with life and love; and his own powers are quickened and expanded. The artist tells a different story to each one who looks upon his painting.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
