520 |a A treatment of the philosophical theory of beauty and of pictorial devices more than the imitation of objects. Harding advocates the kind of imitation that is mental rather than mechanical, subjective rather than objective, and upholds his principles of art as deducible from truths existing in nature. Harding's theory of beauty, like Hogarth's, is based upon variety, which he regards as a primary characteristic of nature. The book is profusely illustrated with original examples executed by the author, in various styles of engraving and lithography
