The benefit Morelli conferred upon students of the Old Masters is now beyond question. There are few galleries which do now owe some important attributions to his discoveries, and even such a determined enemy as the editor of the Cicerone has been constantly obliged to adopt, although without acknowledgement, the conclusions of Morelli, and to steal his ascriptions. How, then, it will be asked, can anyone discover harm in a translation of Morelli's work?
