| Evidence: | Felicia Hemans to John Murray, 26 February 1817, having just sent to him the MS of "Modern Greece": 'Had I been aware of the very limited taste for the Arts which you inform me is displayed by the Public, I should certainly have applied myself to some other subject; but having seen so many works advertised on Sculpture, painting, &c. I was naturally led to imagine the contrary'. |
