Excerpt from The Portfolio: Monographs on Artistic Subjects With Many Illustrations; The Paintings and Drawings of Albert Dürer; John Crome and John Sell Cotman; Armour in England; The Earlier Work of TitianIN a former number of the Portfolio (november 1894) an attempt was made to lay before the reader a short sketch of the life of Albrecht Diirer of Nuremberg, and to give a descriptive, and to some extent explanatory, account Of his engravings on copper and on wood.The limits Of space contained in the volumes of this series made it necessary to confine the contents of the number in question to the engraved work of Albrecht Diirer, and to pass over, with little more than a mere allusion, that very large and important portion of his life-work which has survived to posterity in his paintings and drawings.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
