Italian Hours
Von: Henry James
It Is A Great Pleasure To Write The Word; But I Am Not Sure
There Is Not A Certain Impudence In pretending to Add Anything
To It. Venice Has Been Painted and Described many Thousands Of
Times, And Of All The Cities Of The World Is The Easiest To
Visit Without Going there. Open The First Book And You Will Find
A Rhapsody About It; Step Into The First Picture-Dealer'S And
You Will Find Three Or Four High-Coloured "Views" Of It. There
Is Notoriously Nothing more To Be Said On The Subject.
