Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Painters, Vol. 3 of 5 It may perhaps be thought that, considering the not very elaborate structure of the following volumes, they might have been finished sooner. But it will be found, on reflection, that the ranges of inquiry engaged in demanded, even for their slight investigation, time and pains which are quite unrepresented in the result. It often required a week or two's hard walking to deter mine some geological problem, now dismissed in an unnoticed sentence; and it constantly needed examina tion and thought, prolonged during many days in the picture gallery, to form opinions which the reader may suppose to be dictated by caprice, and will hear only to dispute.
