The essentials of aesthetics in music, poetry, painting, sculpture and architecture
A 1909 textbook of aesthetic theory by George Lansing Raymond, published by G.P. Putnam in New York for American college students and general readers studying the arts together. Halftone and line plates reproduce Turner landscapes, Michelangelo tomb figures, Raphael-style grouped compositions and photographs of buildings, all numbered as figures with captions and page cross-references, useful for grainy monochrome art reproductions and plate-page layout.
