It will be apparent to those who read and understand this book that “art for art’s sake” (never said by Pater) did not sanction the labelling of the kitchen sink as art. His standards are quite exacting.

This edition is limited to the lectures themselves and a short preface and conclusion. The typeface is clear and well spaced. There are no annotations to assist with the occasional foreign phrase.
