Excerpt from Life and Work of the People of England: A Pictorial Record From Contemporary Sources; The Seventeenth Century From opinions received we think that beyond doubt the illustrations of Social History from the contemporary graphic art of the period treated has been of great value and interest to a number of persons but we do not think that teachers as a whole are unanimously sympathetic with these contemporary representations. We cannot help feeling that the contemporary pictures represent the life of a period in a manner unsurpassed for vivid interpretation, graphic power, and wealth of detail. The subjects also have in most cases greater artistic vigour and value than any modern transcripts, and we feel that teachers should accustom themselves to study, enjoy and make use of them. Drawings of a later century, though inferior for Social life, can depict, if carried out by good artists, the architecture and interior decoration of an historic period with accuracy and feeling hence we have included two of Joseph Nash's water colours of Interiors.
