A NEW AND SPLENDID EDITION.

WINCKELMANN (J.) HISTORY of ANCIENT ART, translated from the original
German by G. HENRY LODGE, M.D., with the Notes of Meyer, Lessing, Amoretti,
Fea, Desmarest, Siebelis, and Eschenburg, portrait and upwards of 70 plates,
4 vols. 4to. half cloth, £4. 18s
Boston, U.S.A., 1880

Only 100 copies of this finely executed edition have been printed, each of which is numbered. Of the merits of the "History of Ancient Art" it is necessary at the present day to say but little; its value having been universally admitted. The author has been emphatically and truthfully described as "The greatest Connoisseur and Teacher of the Beautiful in plastic art. He had an inborn lofty sense of the beautiful, an eye trained by practice, a clear judgment, acuteness of intellect, a happy memory, and a love for his subject which mounted quickly to rapture, faithfully accompanied him in all his investigations, and in the record of them. His style resembles an ancient work of art. Each thought steps forth, fashioned in all its parts, and stands there, noble, simple, lofty, complete."

This is one of the rarest of Wither's books in good condition. In Charles Lamb's opinion it is one of the most curious and interesting works in the language.

"The prints in Wither's work are designed with great spirit, and executed with neatness; some of them are exceedingly pretty. The general character of his Emblems is that of a sound morality, enforced in a sensible style, tinctured with warm religious feelings, and adorned with fresh and fragrant flowers of poetry."-Retrospective Review.
