Description

Lectures on Art by Washington Allston is a collection of lectures delivered by the American painter, poet, and essayist. The book is a compilation of Allston's thoughts and ideas on art, aesthetics, and creativity. It provides an insightful and comprehensive analysis of the principles and techniques of art, as well as the role of the artist in society. Allston's lectures are based on his extensive knowledge and experience as a painter, and he shares his views on various art forms, including painting, sculpture, and architecture. He also discusses the works of other great artists, such as Michelangelo and Raphael, and provides a critical analysis of their techniques and styles. The book is an excellent resource for students of art, art history, and aesthetics, as well as for anyone interested in the creative process and the role of art in society. Overall, Lectures on Art is a must-read for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of the principles and techniques of art and the creative process.As these characteristics, like every thing which the mind can recognize as true, all have their origin in its natural desires, they may also be termed Principles; and as such we shall consider them. In order, however, to satisfy ourselves that they are truly such, and not arbitrary assumptions, or the traditional dogmas of Practice, it may be well to inquire whence is their authority; for, though the ultimate cause of pleasure and pain may ever remain to us a mystery, yet it is not so with their intermediate causes, or the steps that lead to them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
