Letters to Living Artists.

£265 · Offered by Maggs Bros Ltd

With a small stain on the endpapers and a little wear to the binding, but a very good copy indeed of this rare issue. White’s antipathy to Millais is in marked contrast to his enthusiasm for Whistler, the “artistic Newton” who is “the source of what molecular force exists in the art criticism of today”: “Thames water has become in your hands the nectar of the gods.”
