Excerpt from Collection of Paintings by Old Masters of All Schools: Season 1912-1913 Intense Vitality - love for Life - ethically creates love for everything artistic. The one who loves Life loves Art, as the sublime expres sion of ever-pulsating human feeling. Two Elements invisible and inexplainable as Elec tricity, form Life, Emotion and Feeling, and in Art combined to these two, Quality and Individuality. It is difficult to say what is meant by Quality, the nearest explanation is Culture and Tradition. A masterpiece is only the one which with irresistible force influences our Imagination and mystically creates in us Emotion. The Primitive Painters were the Children of Byzantine Art and found the earliest and most glorious expression in the fire and fervor of Giotto. The Quatro Centro gave us Botticelli, whose Art resembled the perfume filled early Spring prefacing the glorious Summer of Italian Art, with its great creative Masters and its immortal Art of the Christian Era. High Renaissance Art, the next Evolution, gave us Raphael, Michaelangelo and the great Colorists Titian. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
