Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Modern Painting, Vol. 1 of 3 N 0 book, hitherto, has embraced the history of European painting in the nineteenth century. And modern art, like modern culture, is to be considered as a whole. The history of the art of our own country is not intelligible if one does not know of contemporary movements abroad. The gaze of the historian therefore must not be fixed upon one country alone, but must embrace Europe, - indeed, the whole world.
