Paperback. Condition: Fine. 1st. viii, 276 pages, portrait; 22 cm. Reprint. Originally published: London : R. Hart-Davis, 1956. Tight, clean copy. *** "Between 1868 and 1897 Henry James wrote a number of short essays and reviews of artists and art collections; these essays were published in magazines such as Atlantic Monthly and Harper's Weekly and in newspapers such as the New York Tribune. They included James's comments on Ruskin, Turner, Whistler, Sargent, and the Impressionists, among many others. Thirty of these essays were collected and first published in a modern edition in 1956, accompanied by John Sweeney's introduction, which sketches James's interest in the visual arts over a period of years, focusing on the ways in which painting and painters entered his work as subjects. Susan Griffin's new forward places James's observations in a contemporary context. Some of the novelist's judgements will seem wrong to today's readers: he was critical of the Impressionists, for example. But all of these essays bear the stamp of James's critical intelligence, and they tell us a great deal about his development as a writer during those years." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: An English critic of French painting, 1868; French pictures in Boston, 1872; Pictures by William Morris Hunt, Gerome and others, 1872; The Metropolitan Museum's '1871 purchase', 1872; The Wallace Collection in Bethnal Green, 1873; The Duke of Montpensier's pictures in Boston, 1874; On some pictures lately exhibited; Duveneck and Copley, 1875; The American purchase of Meissonier's 'Friedland', 1876; Two pictures by Delacroix; The impressionists, 1876; Les Mai^tres d'Autrefois, 1876; The National Gallery, 1877; The old masters at Burlington House, 1877; The picture season in London, 1877; The Norwich school; Ruskin's collection of drawings by Turner; The Grosvenor Gallery, 1878; The Royal Academy, 1878; On Whistler and Ruskin, 1878; On art-criticism and Whistler, 1879; The Royal Academy and the Grosvenor Gallery, 1879; The letters of Eugene Delacroix; London pictures, 1882; John S.
