"The major work of Beazley's life was to isolate the artistic personalities of the painters of the 1000s of Attic vases from the 7th to the 4th century B. C. , distinguishing between drawings from each artist's own hand and others more or less closely associated; in his manner; as imitation of his work; from his school circle, or following. ..The new volume, Paralipomena, completes the work by giving the additions and changes which Sir John made in the intervening years." ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 679 pages .
