4.9/5 (22235 ratings)

Description:Ten years and more have passed since Leighton died, yet it is still difficult to get sufficiently far away, to take in the whole of his life and being in their just proportion to the world in which he lived. When we are in Rome, hemmed in by narrow streets, St. Peter's is invisible; once across that wonderful Campagna and mounting the slopes of Frascati, there, like a huge pearl gleaming in the light, rises the dome of the Mother Church. As distance gives the true relation between a lofty building and its suburbs, so time alone can decide the height of the pedestal on which to place the great. The day after Leighton's death Watts wrote to me:— "...The loss to the world is so great that I almost feel ashamed to let my personal grief have so large a placeWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
