WILLIAM P. MOORE, AUCTIONEER.
a) T has been my desire to place before the American
iy Yeas
4%| people a historical collection of pictures by the French
e733) artists of the nineteenth century. As with great au-
thors in literature, so in art it takes more than a generation, even
with the rapidity of developement of modern ideas, to settle the
comparative merit of great artists. Inquiring of an old dealer
for something of Hazlitt’s,—“ Hazlitt!” said he, “ don’t talk to
me of him. Fifty years ago my shelves were full of them, and
the only use I could put them to was kindling fires. I could
get five guineas apiece for them now.” A picture dealer told
Richard Wilson, “See here, Dick, I would like to patronize you,
but my garret is full o’ them.” So it is, and has been with
serious art.
My collection, commencing with David, the stern and severe
reformer of art, as he called himself, down through Gros,
Delacroix, Gericault, Horace Vernet, Paul Delaroche, Conture,
Troyon, Millet, Diaz, Rousseau, Corot, Daubigny,—has led me
wherever I could get an interesting and worthy example of any
of this race of giants. Of the collection, let art connoisseurs
and lovers of art judge for themselves.
Most respectfully,
THOMAS ROBINSON.
