Owner`s Statement 
J&I ARTS began more than 25 years ago with a mission of bringing works of art off the shelves and out of the closets and selling them to those who would have an appreciation for them. It is said that ‘beauty is in the eyes of the beholder,’ but if engravings and literature are left to collect dust in a closet or on a bookshelf, then nobody has the opportunity of enjoying it. We have collected a very large inventory of engravings, literature, and other gifts, and now offer them at reasonable prices for your enjoyment.

The Reason in Art by George Santayana 1906 $10.00

 "THE LIFE OF REASON - REASON IN ART" by George Santayana was published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York in 1906.  230 pages.

The book is a philosophical study of art.  The chapter titles are listed below:

  1. The basis of art in instinct and experience.
  2. Rationality of industrial art.
  3. Emergence of fine art.
  4. Music
  5. Speech and signification
  6. Poetry and prose
  7. Plastic construction
  8. Plastic representation
  9. Justification of art
  10. The criterion of taste
  11. Art and happiness

This book is in good condition, the pages are clean with no age spots.  The cover has some scuff marks, and the end of the binding is a little dicolored from being in the light over the years.  Overall, the book is very readable, and would make a good addition to anyone's book collection who enjoys art and the discusion of what art really is.
