handbook of historic schools of painting
This book is the offshoot of lectures given to students, who had no time or opportunity to study the voluminous standard works which treat of the subject, and it is hoped that it will meet the want of many other such students. All dates and other facts about painters and their pictures have been carefully studied and believed to be genuine. In the book you will also find a list of the symbols by which different saints and other characters in religious paintings by the old masters may be recognized, the meaning of colors used in painting and also complete index of painters’ names with their proper pronunciation.
