Velazqvez And His Works (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Velazqvez: And His Works The following pages were designed to contain the life of Velazquez, as narrated in the Annals of the Artists of Spain (8vo. London, 1848), with such additions as its re-publication in a separate form seemed to require, and as later travel and reading have enabled me to supply. In the execution of this design, however, the work has been nearly re-written. I hope that it may not have been increased in bulk without being also somewhat improved in quality.
