Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Spanish School: Loan Collection
The Spanish masterpieces impress by an exposure of the subject so thorough, so frank, with so great a dis dain for amelioration, that the efiect seems often cruel, and at the same time there is so subtle a sense of values, so great a skill in portrayal, that the graces of the art seem to be unnecessary and out of place. Grim and sardonic, vigorous and splendid, with truth, arrogant in manner and in color, and with great dignity, the art of Spain is distinctive.
