Chesterton’s appreciation of the work of the symbolist painter and sculptor, G. F. Watts opens: “George Frederick Watts was born on 23rd February 1817, and is still alive.” He was not to know that 1904, the year of the book’s publication would also be that of Watts’ death. Insightful and incisive writing, nevertheless, in true Chestertonian style. With b/w f’piece and 31 b/w plates.
