The Print Collector: An Introduction to the Knowledge Necessary for Forming a Collection of Ancient Prints (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Print Collector<br/><br/>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.
