Overview

Excerpt from A History of Painting in Italy, Vol. 1 of 6: Umbria Florence and Siena From the Second to the Six-Teenth Century I had come under the direct influence of Mr. Ruskin. Through no fault of my own, my scheme came to nothing and when, in the year 1899, I was asked to join Mr. Strong in the work of editing this book, I gladly accepted the invitation. In the earlier stages of the preparation of these volumes Mr. Strong took an active part. He has, however, been prevented by illness from correcting the final proofs, and cannot, therefore, be held responsible for any mistakes to be found in them. It is to be hoped that the remaining volumes of this edition will be en riched by the fruits of his wide study of Italian pictures and drawings, by his fine connoisseurship, and his archaeo logical and iconographical erudition.
