Book Description
Excerpt from Catalogue of the Books and Pamphlets in the Library of the School of Mines of Columbia College, July 1st, 1875 In undertaking this catalogue the compiler has not been actuated by any ambitious motives. He began this work immediately upon his appointment to office, and has only to regret now the unavoidable delay which has attended its publication. He fully realizes the many imperfections of the work - due in part to the manner of publication, but in a larger degree to inexperience - but still ventures to hope that he has, in some measure, at least, accomplished his desire to produce a work which shall be of great assistance to persons consulting this library. It will be seen that the work is divided into two parts: Part I. Synthetical: A., Catalogue of the Systematic Works; B., Catalogue of the Periodical Publications, - wherein these works are arranged in alphabetical order, according to their author or title, and without reference to subjects; and Part II., Analytical: wherein the Systematic Works and Periodical Publications are classified with reference to subjects. Part I. B. will be found to include a copious Index, in which have been inserted many abbreviated titles, under which some of the more prominent periodicals are at times quoted. Part II. will be found to include a copious Index, the typographical arrangement of which will indicate clearly whether the reference be to a general heading, a sub-heading, or otherwise. This characteristic applies also, and in a larger degree, to the Index in Part I., B. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition. We do, however, repair the vast majority of imperfections successfully; any imperfections that remain are intentionally left to preserve the state of such historical works.

ISBN: 0892363223
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Bridging the fields of conservation, art history, and museum curating, this volume contains the principal papers from an international symposium titled "Historical Painting Techniques, Materials, and Studio Practice" at the University of Leiden in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from June 26 to 29, 1995. The symposium—designed for art historians, conservators, conservation scientists, and museum curators worldwide—was organized by the Department of Art History at the University of Leiden and the Art History Department of the Central Research Laboratory for Objects of Art and Science in Amsterdam. Twenty-five contributors representing museums and conservation institutions throughout the world provide recent research on historical painting techniques, including wall painting and polychrome sculpture. Topics cover the latest art historical research and scientific analyses of original techniques and materials, as well as historical sources, such as medieval treatises and descriptions of painting techniques in historical literature. Chapters include the painting methods of Rembrandt and Vermeer, Dutch 17th-century landscape painting, wall paintings in English churches, Chinese paintings on paper and canvas, and Tibetan thangkas. Color plates and black-and-white photographs illustrate works from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.
