Sketches of the Principal Picture-Galleries in England. With a Criticism on ‘Marriagea-la-mode,’ appeared in a small 8vo. volume (6½ in. × 4 in.) in 1824, ‘Printed forTaylor and Hessey, 93, Fleet-Street, and 13, Waterloo-Place, Pall-Mall.’ Thelast page bears advertisements of the Characters of Shakspeare’s Plays, Lectures onthe English Poets, and Lectures on the English Comic Writers. The printer’s name,given behind the half-title, is ‘T. Green, 76 Fleet-street.’
Four pages of Taylor & Hessey’s announcements (‘Booksellers to H.R.H. thePrince Leopold’) are bound up with the volume.
The present text is that of the 1824 volume.
The Sketches formed part of the two volumes of ‘Criticisms on Art,’ collectedand edited by his son in 1843–4, and of the one volume of ‘Essays on the FineArts,’ edited by Mr. W. C. Hazlitt in 1873.
