lEVIOU'SLY to the cum-menet:mem ,of. the
,present Reign,. the imitative Arts, with -the exception
of Architecture, were but little regarded in. England. An
the civilized. nations-of Europe bad, for centuries past, :been
reaulered ilhistrious fur their genius in the Fine Arts; while
England, where the fervour of Poetic fancy, as displayed-by
Chancer, a-veneer, Shakspeare, Milton, Dryden, &c; eivalled
the I'ovtte renown of -Greece itself, had not eroduced-a single
instance of astperioc -talent in Painting or Sculpture. But,
their gradnal 'progress daring the present Reign, up to an
advanced state of excellence, sufficiently skews that uncon-
genial fortuitous circumstances; ar.d not deficiency in the-
powers-of imagination.,- prevented their nurture in England.
From the accession of Isis Majesty to the present period, the
istibtic attentiou to,taitutiiig, Sculpture, and Engraving, has-
keen gradually i-ocreasing, and the introductitin of 'the Elgin
Martiles into this scoantry,fullowedaby. thee scrutiny of the
House of Commons hitt) their merits; its parchassa of them
for the nation; together with the seizure and serriaider by
France, of the great wints of the celebrated Masters of the
continenta.hate, in England, excited a deeper and more ge-
neral regard, to Ole elegant Arts, than has ever yet prevailed.
It is ibis mare geueral cad intense regard for vaorks of ,art,
together-with the j ust admiration excited -by; the shill and
courage of our-troops in.,theii• late defeats- of the French;
that has elicited the publication of .•i• Series of Medals, Met-
trative of those national events.' Tlt4 novelty of the work in
this country, has also Iseen.atiother motive for their produc-
tioa. In the time of 'CronsWell and Charles 11., Simon, ais
English Artist, engraved. Medals inat style not very It,/et,-
from the pertectioa .of the Greeks: Since that time, Medal
Engraving bas had but alaintexistence in England. A few
Medals-of individual persons of circumstances, and of talent
inferior to Italian or French Art; have been st,tick; hut no-
thing of general moutent—nothing that celebrates the power
or grandeur of the British Empire—nothing that vibrates on
the heart with emulative and patriotic elfect; or fixes with
delight the tasteful eyea—nothing, in hue, worthy of the
majesty and the renown of the British People, and of the
!teams- a d dignity of Art, has ever yet appeared from an
English Mint, Miring a lung period of 'English glory, in al- -
most every eserlieoee that ;Mullis, ennobles, and inasiortelizes
a nation, :nr present series of Medals, therefore; while it
is a commeacentent of that- new species of publication which
secants aids eleovice and itncquath d durability subjects
every way werthy of commemoration, will, it is trusted, re-
commend itself to eve, y lover of the Fine Arts, and to every
specie's of Politicians; to those who have been friendly, and
those who have been adverse to those measures of Govern-
Meitt, which resulted in the caativity'of Buonaparte, and the
eceueatissoof Psis by the Allies • tor Mills!) perseveianee,
talent, and bravery. Must be equally admired by all.
Mr. Mudie, the'Director and Proprietor of The Series, is
tistaefore confidept that every class of his Countrymen will
hail a work which mill cm ids the cabinet of the Amateur
with it class of Art ant little known in this country, and that
will deliver down to thewposterity to reraute ages, and in
the most lasting of materials, an elegant and energetic re-'
cold jet' so glorious a feature of its Character. Paintings, .
,•xatiisite and7ampressive as they are, are comparatively lint
partial and pi:fishable memorial's; fee they eats he. se• n hut
in fear places, and are ohnuximis to the fading and destruc-
tive influence of the eleatessts. Marble statues, too, are more
iiabte than Medals to accidents, and are, pietures, sta-
tioaary in a tew places. But the smile sithject in Medals,
from their smallness, the infrangible aware of their mat e-
and i heir cheapness, may be conveyed its numerous Im-
pressions- to reel}' part ui. the empire, and the admirers of
tie ,dentical W.ak of Art be at the same time antipodes to
aids gluier; marble gruel), erected in Lasatlon, cats he
viewelf only by the visitor or resident there, but duplicated
iaspressissas of Medals can be seen in numerous places at
once, by tier issealsitaats of Europe and Indic, by the soldier
alio is g.airding Napoleon it, Sala Helena, and those iii
London who seat or continue him there. Thet•e is Boat
but one circumstance ia the nature of the work of which
the Proprietor thinks it necessary to he particular in explaid-
ing a it is the emaloyicg of foreign Artists tto engrave a por-
tion of the Medals. • This he was compelled to du, in tatter
to confer the greatest perfection in the metallic records of
incidents so-1.4011y deserving of that perfect repress ntatiim.
Much 4i our native Artists excel in every other branch of the
Fine Arts, equalliag, and in many respects exceeding foreign
Artists, they have- not yet reached the delicacy, precision, and
dins!) of the French and Italian,Medallists. This is by no
means attributable to any deficien, 7 ahatever in the native
capabilities of Englishmen. The inbred vigour of their
rowers, if duly cherished, is competent to the highest at-
tainments ist this and every salter Art, or they
,would not
have rivalled the fittest geniuses_ of antiquity in the sister
Art of Pessary, or have approached antique perfection in the
works of their own native Medallist, Simon. There arc,
however, several of our countrymen who have great and
growing talents in Medal engraving. These talents' shall
trace a share in illustrating the deeds of their breve country-
mets represented in tip/Series; so that tie proprietor will as-
sist, to the utmost of his power, to unfold their latent eater-
git s to a degree that will altogether sapersede the necessity of
foreign aid. Opportunity only can beawatoing to open to
British genius all the paths of intellectual glory.
