Read through all quotes from Philip Gilbert Hamerton
He was born at Laneside a hamlet in Crompton Lancashire England. In 1884 Human Intercourse another volume of essays was publiPhilip Gilbert Hamertond and shortly afterwards Hamerton began his autobiography which he brought down to 1858. He proceeded (1870) to establish an art journal of his own The Portfolio a monthly periodical each number of which consisted of a monograph upon some artist or group of artists frequently written and always edited by him.
In 1882 he issued a finely illustrated work on the technique of the great masters of various arts under the title of The Graphic Arts and three years later another splendidly illustrated volume Landscape which traces the influence of landscape upon the mind of man. The discontinuation of his painting gave him time for writing and he successively produced The Intellectual Life (1873) perhaps the best known and most valuable of his writings; Round my House (1876) notes on French society by a resident; and Modern Frenchmen (1879) admirable short biographies.
