Book Description: Kessinger Publishing. Hardback. Book Condition: new. BRAND NEW PRINT ON DEMAND., William Morris to Whistler: Papers and Addresses on Art and Craft and the Commonweal (1911), Walter Crane, WILLIAM MORRIS TO WHISTLER PREFACE OF the collected papers and addresses which form this book, the opening one upon William Morris was composed of an address to the Art Workers Guild, an article which appeared in The Progressive Review, at the instance of Mr. J. A. Hobson, and a longer illustrated article written for The Century Magazine, and now reprinted with the illustrations by permission of Messrs. Charles Scribners Sons, to whom my thanks are due. The Socialist Ideal as a New Inspiration in Art was written for The International Review, when it appeared under the editorship of Dr. Rudolph Broda, as the English edition of Docu ments du Progres. The English Revival in Decorative Art ap peared in the Fortnightly Review and I have to thank Mr. W. L. Courtney for allowing me to seprint it. It has some additions. Notes on Early Italian Gesso Work was written for Messrs. George Newness Magazine of the Fine Arts with the illustrations, and I am obliged to them for leave to use both again. Notes on Colour Embroidery and its Treat ment was written at Mrs. Christies request for PREFACE Embroidery which she edited, and I have Messrs. Pearsalls authority to include it here. The Apotheosis of The Butterfly was a review written for The Evening News, and I thank the editor for letting me print it again. It appears now, however, with a different title, and considerable additions. A Short Survey of the Art of the Century appeared in a journal, the name of which has escaped me, but it has been largely rewritten and added to since. For the rest, Modern Aspects of Life and the Sense of Beauty was originally addressed as the opening of a debate at the Pioneer Club, in which my late friend Lewis F. Daywas my opponent, and my chief supporter was Mr. J, Ramsay Mac donald, M. P. Art and the Commonweal was an address to the Students of Art at Armstrong College, Newcastle-on-Tyne, and the paper On Some of the Arts allied to Architecture was given before the Architectural Association. That On the Study and Practice of Art was delivered in Man chester before the Art School Committee and City authorities, and the Notes on Animals in Art to the Art Workers 1 Guild in London.
