Unmarked As To Subject, Not Clearly Identified As Orwell. Provenance Murky; From A California…

1768 1ed ART Gilpin Essay Upon Prints Rembrandt Poussin Antique Collecting GuideAn early guide to antiquarian collecting!
William Gilpin was an English artist, Anglican cleric, schoolmaster and author. He was most notable as one of the originators of the concept of the picturesque, a set of rules for depicting nature. This notion would be expounded upon and expanded by other contemporary philosophers.
'An Essay upon Print's, attributed to Gilpin, is one of the first guides on print collecting in English. It became the standard for those collecting all kinds of prints, especially those of 'picturesque' quality. It also cautions against investing in copies of originals and acquiring poor impressions. Gilpin, who remained anonymous as the author, included the names of iconic artists – such as Rembrandt and Poussin – as those whose art is worthy of collecting.

This book is in good condition. There is some wear on the front, back, spine, edges and corner of the cover. There is some dog-earring on the right corner pages of the book. The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
