He examined and gathered numerous works, carefully selecting the most significant subjects, engraving them on plates so that they could be handed down. This volume has been created for the benefit of those who study painting, so that they may draw inspiration and guidance from it. If anyone, by observing it, can improve their art, then the author’s intention will have been fully realized.”
