Art thoughts : the experiences and observations of an American amateur in Europe
Art criticism and travel commentary by the American collector James Jackson Jarves, published in New York by Hurd and Houghton in 1869 for American readers following European painting and sculpture. The plates are printer's ornaments rather than artworks: black-line headbands, tailpiece lozenges and arabesque strapwork with stippled grounds, usable as rules, dividers and chapter openers at small sizes.
