CLOISONNE VASE - 6 INCHES HIGH
Owner`s Statement 
J&I ARTS began more than 25 years ago with a mission of bringing works of art off the shelves and out of the closets and selling them to those who would have an appreciation for them. It is said that ‘beauty is in the eyes of the beholder,’ but if engravings and literature are left to collect dust in a closet or on a bookshelf, then nobody has the opportunity of enjoying it. We have collected a very large inventory of engravings, literature, and other gifts, and now offer them at reasonable prices for your enjoyment.

How to Enjoy Pictures-by M. S. Emery 1898 $25.00

This book "HOW TO ENJOY PICTURES" by M.S. Emery was published by the Prang Educational Company in 1898.  It is a wonderful book for anyone who enjoys reading about the master painters such as Rubens, Raphael, Murillo, Rembrandt, Da Vinci, Michelanglo, and many others.  It describes how and why the masters chose their subjects, and how they were created.

This enscription can be found on the title page.   "Do you think Lionardo's wonderful power of delineation grievous to see, because so wonderful, and so hopeless of attainment?  No, it is delightful and full of hope, if your hope is the right one, of being one day able to rejoice more in what others are, than in what you are yourself, and more in the strength that is forever above you, than in that you can ever attain."  John Ruskin

The pictures shown bellow are:  Raphael's "Sistine Madonna"; Peter Paul Rubens' "Wife with Children";  Bartolome Esteban Murillo "St. Anthony and The Christ Child".

The book is in good condition with minor bumps at the corners, but the binding, and the pages are tight.  The pages are clean, with no foxing.  This book contains 287 pages.
