Excerpt from Catalogue of Ornamental Casts of the Renaissance Styles: Being Part of the Collections of the Department The course of ancient and of modern art has been much the same both commenced in the symbolic, and ended in the sen suons. The essence of all middle-age art was symbolism, and the transition from the symbolism to the unalloyed principles of beauty, is the great feature of the revival. Art was wholly separated from religion in the Renaissance; but this transition was, of course, gradual. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Cast Catalogue of Antique Sculpture: With an Introduction to the Study of Ornament More diligence might doubtless have increased the number of casts priced, but nearly all the principal catalogues have been consulted, and from them the casts most desirable obtained. To these prices should be added from fifty to one hunared and fifty per cent for packing and freight, varying according to size. The Introduction to the Study of Ornament has undergone several changes since it was decided to print it. At first it was intended to make it a full and formal text-book for schools, as so few works on the subject are accessible to English-speaking students. The cost of the necessary illustrations in colors would render the book too expenswe if combined with the Cast Catalogue, and it is therefore presented true to its title, leaving to the student any arrangement of material or construe tion of theory that may seem to him useful. The various works referred to in the Catalogue are, or should be, in every public library, and it may not be improper here to calli attention to the importance to the people of this country of an ample supply of books relating to the fine arts, since they are unable to see and study the original works in them described. It must be confessed that Ameri can libraries are sadly deficient in such literature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
