THOUGHTS ON ART & AUTOBIOGRAPH
During his life, honours had been showered upon him at home and abroad-honours well deserved and meekly borne, without vanity or pretension. He had been made a knight and counsellor of the Civil Order of Savoy, a member of the Institute of France, a knight of the Tuscan Order of Merit and of the Legion of Honour in France, an officer of the Brazilian Order of the Rose, a commander of the Order of the Corona d'Italia, Mexico and Guadaloupe, an associate of the Academy of St Luke, and of various other academies in Italy and elsewhere.

Thoughts on Art and Autobiographical Memoirs of Giovanni Dupre
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
Giovanni Dupre (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Giovanni Dupre The book is by no means intended as a substitute for the Biograficlzz' of Dupre, now made accessible to English and American readers in the elegant translation of Madame Peruzzi. Indeed, I should feel well repaid for this humble tribute to the memory of an eminent Italian sculptor, at once great in his art, fascinating and instructive as a writer, and simple and pure in character, if it might lead to the more general circulation and appreciation of his own work; a Book which stands alone as the autobiography of a modern Italian artist, and may be said to have formed an era in the art literature of Italy.

Thoughts on Art and Autobiographical Memoirs of Giovanni Dupre (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Thoughts on Art and Autobiographical Memoirs of Giovanni Dupre In respect of style, this autobiography resembles more the spoken than the written literary language of Italy. It is free, natural, unstudied, and often careless. But its very carelessness has a charm. Dupre was not a scholar nor a literary man. He was not bound by the rigid forms of what is called in Italy 10 stile, which but too often is the enemy of natural utterance.

The writer, fortunately for the reader, is as unconscious...

Thoughts on Art and Autobiographical Memoirs of Giovanni Duprè
Excerpt from Thoughts on Art and Autobiographical Memoirs of Giovanni Duprè This book contains the record of the life and thoughts upon Art of Giovanni Dupre, one of the most eminent sculptors of the present century in Italy. It was written by him from time to time, during the latter years of his life, in the intervals of work in his studio, and given to the public about three years before his death. Those three years, of which it contains no account, were assiduously devoted to his art. Every day had its work, and it was done faithfully and joyously even to the last. "Nulla dies sine linea." Within these years, among other works of less importance, he successively executed a basso-relievo ...
