Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Botticelli
T may, perhaps, seem somewhat presump tuous at a moment when scholars and stu dents are anxiously awaiting the early appearance of Mr. Herbert Horne's long-expected and monumental monograph on botticelli, for anyone less well equipped with knowledge to venture upon another Sketch, however limited in scope, regarding this charming painter. Never theless, the author is fain to take his courage in his hands, and to hope that as far as his modest work goes, he has not fallen into any very gross errors, or such as may bring upon him the con tempt of so distinguished a critic.
