''A Letter To Lord John Russell: On The Present Crisis Relative To The Fine Arts In Scotland'' is a book written by Thomas Hamilton and published in 1850. The book is a letter addressed to Lord John Russell, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom at the time, concerning the state of the fine arts in Scotland. Hamilton argues that the lack of government support for the arts in Scotland has led to a decline in the quality of art produced in the country. He also criticizes the Scottish Academy of Fine Arts for its failure to promote and support Scottish artists. The book provides a detailed analysis of the state of the fine arts in Scotland, including the lack of funding for art schools and the absence of a national gallery. Hamilton proposes several solutions to these problems, including the establishment of a government-funded art school and the creation of a national gallery to showcase Scottish art. Overall, ''A Letter To Lord John Russell'' is a passionate plea for the government to support the arts in Scotland and to recognize the importance of art in society. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the state of the fine arts in Scotland in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
