Book Description
Excerpt from A Sienese Painter of the Franciscan Legend I thank the Editor of the Burlington Magazine for the permission to republish the articles which make up this small book. They gave rise to certain misunderstandings which were probably due, in the first place, to the fact that they touch too rapidly upon too many things, and in the second place to a question of emphasis. I had hoped to help clear my meaning by adding three other essays, elaborating what I had to say about the religious painting of China and Japan, about imaginative design, and above all about the claims of illustration as a separate art.

Book Description
This beautifully illustrated work brings together more than one hundred objects from the J. Paul Getty Museum’s collection of European decorative arts. Included here is a generous selection of French and Italian furniture from the mid-sixteenth to the early nineteenth century. Masterpieces by André-Charles Boulle, Bernard (II) van Risenburgh, and others reveal the virtuoso craftsmanship that makes these objects such compelling examples of the furniture maker’s art. Many of the Museum’s finest pieces of porcelain, glass, and tin-glazed earthenware are also represented. Tapestries from Gobelins and Beauvais, bronze firedogs from Fontainebleau, and a lathe-turned ivory goblet of astonishing complexity from Saxony are among the other highlights of this handsome volume.
