Excerpt from Exhibition of Paintings, Engravings, Drawings, Aquarelles, and Works of Household Art, in the Cincinnati Industrial Exposition The Committee on Fine Arts gratefully acknowledge the generous assistance of contributors in New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, Cincinnati, and other localities, whereby it has been rendered possible to present this extensive collection of art works. As indicated by the catalogue, many of the paintings and articles of household art are offered for sale at such reasonable prices as, it is believed, will meet the views of those wishing to purchase. It may be safely asserted that no like opportunity for the acquisition of meritorious works of art has ever been presented in the West. It is hoped that sufficient encouragement in the way of sales will be given to the artists and dealers who have sent contributions, to provide for the success of future exhibitions.

"This project is the first comprehensive study of a phenomenon that not only dominated the American arts of the 1870s and 1880s, but also helped set the course of such later developments in the United States as the Arts and Crafts movement, the indigenous interpretation of Art Nouveau, and even the rise of modernism. In fact, the early history of the Metropolitan--its founding, its sponsorship of a school of industrial design, and its display of decorative works--is inextricably tied to the Aesthetic movement and its educational goals. "In Pursuit of Beauty: Americans and the Aesthetic Movement" comprised some 175 objects including furniture, metalwork, stained glass, ceramics, textiles, wallpaper, painting, and sculpture. Some of these had rarely been displayed; others, although familiar, were being shown in new and even startling contexts. The exhibition and catalogue are arranged thematically to illustrate both the major styles of a visually rich movement and the ideas that generated its diversity"--From publisher's description.
