Imaginary Portraits: With the Child in the House and Gaston de Latour by Walter Pater
Out of print for decades, the enchanting classics in this new edition will be welcomed by teachers and students of literature, art history, and aesthetics. Written by an esteemed nineteenth-century scholar of Renaissance art and literature, the imaginary portraits are fictionalized accounts of historic figures, with the search for a new aesthetic as the common thread. The Child in the House, out of print since 1904, appears in this treasured new edition, along with Gaston de Latour, an unfinished novel.
