""The Art Treasures of London: Painting"" is a comprehensive guide to the schools of painting represented in the public galleries of London, written by Hugh Stokes and originally published in 1908. The book offers a chronological overview of the development of painting, from the early Italian and Flemish schools through to the contemporary artists of the time. Stokes provides detailed descriptions of the most important works in each school, discussing their historical and artistic significance, and providing insights into the techniques and styles of the artists who created them. The book is illustrated with over 100 black and white photographs of the paintings discussed, making it an invaluable resource for art historians, students, and anyone with an interest in the history of painting.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
