The origin of this little book is as follows.
Some three years ago Dr. Cantor, a Dane by birth,
but an Army Surgeon in the Anglo-Indian service, died
in India, leaving his property to be divided between the
Society of Arts and Wellington College.
Last year the Society of Arts devoted the proceeds of
their portion of the bequest to three courses of Lectures,
viz. one on International Law, by Hastings,G. W. Esq.,
Barrister- another on Chemistryat-Law ; applied to the
Arts, by Dr. Crace Calvert, F.K.S. ; and a third on Art
applied to Industry.
The Lectures comprised in this latter course form
the greater portion of the present work ; the additions
consisting of two other Lectures upon the same subject,
and which were read respectively at the Architectural
Association and at the South Kensington Museum.
