Description
Excerpt from Masks, Heads, and Faces: With Some Considerations Respecting the Rise and Development of Art
The progress of the development of the human intellect is marked by inventions that may be compared in the history of mankind to numerous mile-stones, showing in the perspective of years the way by which men have arrived at the present conditions of civilization. And the far-reaching significance of these inventions, the ever-lessening mile-stones of human endeavor which reach out to the very horizon of primitive life, can be only gauged retrospectively.
