About this ebook
Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by John Robert Dicksee, Frederic Leighton and Dante Gabriel Rossetti.

This edition is bound with a gallery of 60 plates of painting, among them works by Panini, Turner and Franciabigio, and includes five illustrations restored and coloured for this edition.
