§ 2.	Nor for separate study of ideas of power.	32
§ 3.	Except under one particular form.	33
§ 4.	There are two modes of receiving ideas of power, commonly inconsistent.[Page lv]	33
§ 5.	First reason of the inconsistency.	33
§ 6.	Second reason for the inconsistency.	34
§ 7.	The sensation of power ought not to be sought in imperfect art.	34

§ 3.	The second, simplicity.	36
§ 4.	The third, mystery.	37

§ 10.	Therefore perilous.	40
§ 11.	Recapitulation.	40

Chapter III., Of the Sublime

§ 1.	Sublimity is the effect upon the mind of anything above it.	41

§ 3.	Danger is sublime, but not the fear of it.	42
§ 4.	The highest beauty is sublime.	42
§ 5.	And generally whatever elevates the mind.	42

PART II. OF TRUTH.

SECTION I.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES RESPECTING IDEAS OF TRUTH.

Chapter I., Of Ideas of Truth in their connection with those of Beauty and Relation

§ 1.	The two great ends of landscape painting are the representation of facts and thoughts.	44
§ 2.	They induce a different choice of material subjects.[Page lvi]	45
§ 3.	The first mode of selection apt to produce sameness and repetition.	45
§ 4.	The second necessitating variety.	45

§ 10.	How truth may be considered a just criterion of all art.	48

Chapter II., That the Truth of Nature is not to be discerned by the Uneducated Senses

§ 1.	The common self-deception of men with respect to their power of discerning truth.	50
§ 2.	Men usually see little of what is before their eyes.	51
§ 3.	But more or less in proportion to their natural sensibility to what is beautiful.	52
§ 4.	Connected with a perfect state of moral feeling.	52
§ 5.	And of the intellectual powers.	53
§ 6.	How sight depends upon previous knowledge.	54
§ 7.	The difficulty increased by the variety of truths in nature.	55
§ 8.	We recognize objects by their least important attributes. Compare Part I. Sect. I. Chap. 4.	55

Chapter III., Of the Relative Importance of Truths:—First, that Particular Truths are more important than General Ones.

§ 1.	Necessity of determining the relative importance of truths.	58
§ 2.	Misapplication of the aphorism: "General truths are more important than particular ones."	58
§ 3.	Falseness of this maxim, taken without explanation.	59
§ 4.	Generality important in the subject, particularity in the predicate.	59
§ 5.	The importance of truths of species is not owing to their generality.	60
§ 6.	All truths valuable as they are characteristic.	61

§ 9.	Recapitulation.	63

Chapter IV., Of the Relative Importance of Truths:—Secondly, that Rare Truths are more important than Frequent Ones

§ 1.	No accidental violation of nature's principles should be represented.	64

§ 3.	Color is a secondary quality, therefore less important than form.	68
§ 4.	Color no distinction between objects of the same species.	68
§ 5.	And different in association from what it is alone.	69

§ 9.	Recapitulation.	71

Chapter VI. Recapitulation

§ 1.	The importance of historical truths.	72

SECTION II.

OF GENERAL TRUTHS.

Chapter I., Of Truth of Tone

§ 1.	Meanings of the word "tone:"—First, the right relation of objects in shadow to the principal light.	140
§ 2.	Secondly, the quality of color by which it is felt to owe part of its brightness to the hue of light upon it.	140
§ 3.	Difference between tone in its first sense and aerial perspective.	141
§ 4.	The pictures of the old masters perfect in relation of middle tints to light.	141
§ 5.	And consequently totally false in relation of middle tints to darkness.	141
§ 6.	General falsehood of such a system.	143
§ 7.	The principle of Turner in this respect.	143
§ 8.	Comparison of N. Poussin's "Phocion."	144
§ 9.	With Turner's "Mercury and Argus."	145
§ 10.	And with the "Datur Hora Quieti."	145
§ 11.	The second sense of the word "tone."	146
§ 12.	Remarkable difference in this respect between the paintings and drawings of Turner.	146
§ 13.	Not owing to want of power over the material.	146
§ 14.	The two distinct qualities of light to be considered.	147
§ 15.	Falsehoods by which Titian attains the appearance of quality in light.	148
§ 16.	Turner will not use such means.	148
§ 17.	But gains in essential truth by the sacrifice.	148
§ 18.	The second quality of light.	148
§ 19.	The perfection of Cuyp in this respect interfered with by numerous solecisms.	150
§ 20.	Turner is not so perfect in parts—far more so in the whole.	151
§ 21.	The power in Turner of uniting a number of tones.	152
§ 22.	Recapitulation.	153

§ 8.	Reasons for the usual incredulity of the observer with respect to their representation.	162
§ 9.	Color of the Napoleon.	163
§ 10.	Necessary discrepancy between the attainable brilliancy of color and light.	164
§ 11.	This discrepancy less in Turner than in other colorists.	165
§ 12.	Its great extent in a landscape attributed to Rubens.	165

§ 18.	His early works are false in color.	170
§ 19.	His drawings invariably perfect.	171
§ 20.	The subjection of his system of color to that of chiaroscuro.	171

Chapter III., Of Truth of Chiaroscuro

§ 1.	We are not at present to examine particular effects of light.	174
§ 2.	And therefore the distinctness of shadows is the chief means of expressing vividness of light.	175
§ 3.	Total absence of such distinctness in the works of the Italian school.	175
§ 4.	And partial absence in the Dutch.	176
§ 5.	The perfection of Turner's works in this respect.	177
§ 6.	The effect of his shadows upon the light.	178
§ 7.	The distinction holds good between almost all the works of the ancient and modern schools.	179

§ 10.	And consequent misguiding of the student.	181
§ 11.	The great value of a simple chiaroscuro.	182
§ 12.	The sharp separation of nature's lights from her middle tint.	182
§ 13.	The truth of Turner.	183

Chapter IV., Of Truth of Space:—First, as Dependent on the Focus of the Eye

§ 1.	Space is more clearly indicated by the drawing of objects than by their hue.	185
§ 2.	It is impossible to see objects at unequal distances distinctly at one moment.	186
§ 3.	Especially such as are both comparatively near.	186
§ 4.	In painting, therefore, either the foreground or distance must be partially sacrificed.	187
§ 5.	Which not being done by the old masters, they could not express space.	187
§ 6.	But modern artists have succeeded in fully carrying out this principle.	188
§ 7.	Especially of Turner.	189
§ 8.	Justification of the want of drawing in Turner's figures.	189

Chapter V., Of Truth of Space:—Secondly, as its Appearance is dependent on the Power of the Eye

§ 1.	The peculiar indistinctness dependent on the retirement of objects from the eye.	191
§ 2.	Causes confusion, but not annihilation of details.	191
§ 3.	Instances in various objects.	192
§ 4.	Two great resultant truths; that nature is never distinct, and never vacant.	193
§ 5.	Complete violation of both these principles by the old masters. They are either distinct or vacant.	193
§ 6.	Instances from Nicholas Poussin.	194
§ 7.	From Claude.	194
§ 8.	And G. Poussin.	195
§ 9.	The imperative necessity, in landscape painting, of fulness and finish.	196

§ 11.	The fulness and mystery of Turner's distances.	198
§ 12.	Farther illustrations in architectural drawing.	199
§ 13.	In near objects as well as distances.	199
§ 14.	Vacancy and falsehood of Canaletto.	200
§ 15.	Still greater fulness and finish in landscape foregrounds.	200
§ 16.	Space and size are destroyed alike by distinctness and by vacancy.	202
§ 17.	Swift execution best secures perfection of details.	202
§ 18.	Finish is far more necessary in landscape than in historical subjects.	202
§ 19.	Recapitulation of the section.	203

SECTION III., OF TRUTH OF SKIES

Chapter I., Of the Open Sky.

§ 1.	The peculiar adaptation of the sky to the pleasing and teaching of man.	204
§ 2.	The carelessness with which its lessons are received.	205
§ 3.	The most essential of these lessons are the gentlest.	205
§ 4.	Many of our ideas of sky altogether conventional.	205
§ 5.	Nature, and essential qualities of the open blue.	206
§ 6.	Its connection with clouds.	207
§ 7.	Its exceeding depth.	207
§ 8.	These qualities are especially given by modern masters.	207
§ 9.	And by Claude.	208
§ 10.	Total absence of them in Poussin. Physical errors in his general treatment of open sky.	208
§ 11.	Errors of Cuyp in graduation of color.	209
§ 12.	The exceeding value of the skies of the early Italian and Dutch schools. Their qualities are unattainable in modern times.	210
§ 13.	Phenomena of visible sunbeams. Their nature and cause.	211
§ 14.	They are only illuminated mist, and cannot appear when the sky is free from vapor, nor when it is without clouds.	211
§ 15.	Erroneous tendency in the representation of such phenomena by the old masters.	212
§ 16.	The ray which appears in the dazzled eye should not be represented.	213
§ 17.	The practice of Turner. His keen perception of the more delicate phenomena of rays.	213
§ 18.	The total absence of any evidence of such perception in the works of the old masters.	213
§ 19.	Truth of the skies of modern drawings.	214
§ 20.	Recapitulation. The best skies of the ancients are, in quality, inimitable, but in rendering of various truth, childish.	215

Chapter II., Of Truth of Clouds:—First, of the Region of the Cirrus.

§ 1.	Difficulty of ascertaining wherein the truth of clouds consists.	216
§ 2.	Variation of their character at different elevations. The three regions to which they may conveniently be considered as belonging.	216

§ 12.	His use of the cirrus in expressing mist.	223
§ 13.	His consistency in every minor feature.	224
§ 14.	The color of the upper clouds.	224
§ 15.	Recapitulation.	225

Chapter III., Of Truth of Clouds:—Secondly, of the Central Cloud Region

§ 1.	Extent and typical character of the central cloud region.	226
§ 2.	Its characteristic clouds, requiring no attention nor thought for their representation, are therefore favorite subjects with the old masters.	226
§ 3.	The clouds of Salvator and Poussin.	227
§ 4.	Their essential characters.	227
§ 5.	Their angular forms and general decision of outline.	228
§ 6.	The composition of their minor curves.	229
§ 7.	Their characters, as given by S. Rosa.	230
§ 8.	Monotony and falsehood of the clouds of the Italian school generally.	230
§ 9.	Vast size of congregated masses of cloud.	231
§ 10.	Demonstrable by comparison with mountain ranges.	231
§ 11.	And consequent divisions and varieties of feature.	232
§ 12.	Not lightly to be omitted.	232
§ 13.	Imperfect conceptions of this size and extent in ancient landscape.	233
§ 14.	Total want of transparency and evanescence in the clouds of ancient landscape.	234
§ 15.	Farther proof of their deficiency in space.	235
§ 16.	Instance of perfect truth in the sky of Turner's Babylon.	236
§ 17.	And in his Pools of Solomon.	237
§ 18.	Truths of outline and character in his Como.	237
§ 19.	Association of the cirrostratus with the cumulus.	238
§ 20.	The deep-based knowledge of the Alps in Turner's Lake of Geneva.	238
§ 21.	Farther principles of cloud form exemplified in his Amalfi.	239
§ 22.	Reasons for insisting on the infinity of Turner's works. Infinity is almost an unerring test of all truth[Page lxiv]	239
§ 23.	Instances of the total want of it in the works of Salvator.	240
§ 24.	And of the universal presence of it in those of Turner. The conclusions which may be arrived at from it.	240
§ 25.	The multiplication of objects, or increase of their size, will not give the impression of infinity, but is the resource of novices.	241
§ 26.	Farther instances of infinity in the gray skies of Turner.	242
§ 27.	The excellence of the cloud-drawing of Stanfield.	242
§ 28.	The average standing of the English school.	243

Chapter IV.,Of Truth of Clouds:—Thirdly, of the Region of the Rain-Cloud.

§ 1.	The apparent difference in character between the lower and central clouds is dependent chiefly on proximity.	244
§ 2.	Their marked differences in color.	244
§ 3.	And in definiteness of form.	245
§ 4.	They are subject to precisely the same great laws.	245
§ 5.	Value, to the painter, of the rain-cloud.	246
§ 6.	The old masters have not left a single instance of the painting of the rain-cloud, and very few efforts at it. Gaspar Poussin's storms.	247
§ 7.	The great power of the moderns in this respect.	248
§ 8.	Works of Copley Fielding.	248
§ 9.	His peculiar truth.	248

§ 27.	Turner's power of rendering mist.	258
§ 28.	His effects of mist so perfect, that if not at once understood, they can no more be explained or reasoned on than nature herself.	259
§ 29.	Various instances.	259
§ 30.	Turner's more violent effects of tempest are never rendered by engravers.	260

1.F.

1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
cannot be read by your equipment.

1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGE.

1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
without further opportunities to fix the problem.

1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS', WITH NO
OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT

1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the
remaining provisions.

trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in

the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
Defect you cause.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
www.gutenberg.org Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

The Foundation's principal office is in Fairbanks, Alaska, with the
mailing address: PO Box 750175, Fairbanks, AK 99775, but its
volunteers and employees are scattered throughout numerous
locations. Its business office is located at 809 North 1500 West, Salt

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.

Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org

This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
