PREFACE: The object of this early works is to furnish in a convenient form all the practical information necessary for the enjoyment of the paintings by the old masters represented in Venice, and to serve as a work of reference to them. The 700 pictures in the Academy are described in alphabetical order, and historical information is given where possible, together with the opinions of prominent critics. All the chief paintings (numbering over 500), in the churches, palaces etc, in Venice are treated in like manner in the order in which they are hung. Despite its early years this fascinating works contains much information that is still useful and practical today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
