Synopsis

Excerpt from Chats on Old Miniatures

Miss E. M. Foster has been of much service in reing the proofs and passing this work through the press.

I have only to add one word, and that relates to the illustrations. I am fortunate in being able to put before my readers so large a selection of choice examples of the art of miniature painting.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Publishers that the following pages should be included in a certain wellknown series, I have termed them Chats onO ld Miniatures, but confess that I consider the title somewhat of a misnomer, inasmuch as I have been accustomed to regard a chat as a conversation between two or more persons interested in a given subject; whereas in this little volume it is obvious that I have done all the talking. In the interval which has elapsed since my larger works appeared the most important event in connection with the subject of Miniatures is, in my opinion, theE xhibition of Works of Art of theE ighteenth Century at the French National Library in 1906. The concluding chapter of this book gives the impressions afforded by that extremely interesting and instructive Exhibition.
