“This Lecture covers the development of Venetian Art, from its commencement in the early fifteenth century, with its rival schools of Murano and Bellini, through the sixteenth, with Titian and Giorgione. It includes a digression on the Eclectics and Naturalists, and ends with the eighteenth century, where, instead of Madonnas and Saints, we get Venice herself, painted from every aspect—a prelude to the moderns.

The illustrations in both sets were chosen almost entirely from the fine examples shown in the Italian Exhibition held in London in the spring of 1930, and it is hoped that the lectures will appeal, not only to students and those familiar with the subject, but also to all who are interested in the world's great achievements.”
