Book Description
Excerpt from The Print Collector; An Introduction to the Knowledge Necessary for Forming a Collection of Ancient Prints The compiler of this little work has been a print-collector for upwards of twenty years, but he would much overstate its purport and pretensions if he were to profi'er it as containing the fruit of that length of experience: such experience is not of a nature to be communicated in words, or imparted by instruction, or acquired otherwise than by practice alone. All that he professes to do is to afford some little assistance to the young collector, such as shall enable him to commence his pursuit in a right direction. But, although it is not the fruit of experience that he pretends to communicate, it is the result of experience that induces him to publish. When he first began collecting, he was totally ignorant of all that is to be learned on the subject; he had a love for works of art.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Print Collector: An Introduction to the Knowledge Necessary for Forming a Collection of Ancient Prints The study of art needs no apology. Man may sometimes acquire too much power, or too much money, for his own advantage or for the good of his fellow-men, but true art is like true religion - the more it is cultivated the richer are the heart and mind of its possessor. Should it not beget wisdom, it will increase knowledge; and these, if not twin brothers, are very closely related. There are good and bad systems of religion, as there are true and false forms of art, and a consideration of this analogy might be followed up with profit, to the edification of some people, and to the incredulity and disapprobation of others. In this new country, where for the last one hundred years utility has been the predominant idea, I have often wondered why the poetic mind of the age has not created a goddess of Utility, to whom we might render homage similar to that paid in the olden time at the shrines of the goddesses of Wisdom, Beauty, and Riches. We know that art in its highest forms is capable of inspiring the purest of religious sentiment, but this is only a portion of what it has done for the world in the past, and is capable of doing for us now. In all real art there is something which the lowliest person may partake of and enjoy; just as art may be found, and does exist, in the lowliest and simplest forms and detail.
