Excerpt from Pages on Art
My acknowledgments are due to the editors of The Burlington Magazine and The Morning Post for permission to reprint the articles which have appeared in their pages. In defence of the reissue of such occasional writing the author would urge that he has had some practice in painting, sculpture and stage decoration, and that the articles on the East are by an old lover and collector of its art: this is said as an excuse for their presentation in book form. To those who will probably miss the literary gift I would say, like Delacroix, 'La plume n'est pas mon outil.'
