Remarks on Antiquities, Arts, and Letters During an Excursion in Italy, in the

Excerpt from Remarks on Antiquities, Arts, and Letters During an Excursion in Italy, in the Years 1802 and 1803, Vol. 2 of 2I left England in November, 1801, without any intention of sporting my pen on so beaten a field as Italy, and had reached Pisa before I began to commit to paper such remarks as are usual in travelling. Materials of this kind readily accumulate. From these I have been recently prevailed upon to select, and to offer to the Public, what relates to Antiquities, Arts, and Letters. I design my observations chiefly for them who have already examined the objects I review: but not without the anxiety, which the lateness of their appearance is but too well calculated to excite.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
