A 222 page book titled "THE CONCEPTION OF ART AND THE REASON OF DESIGN" by Henry Poore. Publishers notes - " A volume containing in condensed form a painter's opinion of the meaning of art in its application to past and present periods. It is a book addressed in the simple phrases of ready discourse to the layman and student of art, and seeks to clarify to such minds much that for want of explanation or argument has assumed an aspect of mystery and speculation" .
