Vaughan, Herbert Millingchamp. [The Naples Riviera.] il. $2. Stokes.
W 7–197.
“Mr. Vaughan gives a generous interpretation to the Naples Riviera, including the Islands of the Blessed that float in a pellucid atmosphere in the enchanting bay. Everywhere he is resuscitating a dead past, from Herculaneum submerged in volcanic mud, and Pompeii long buried in a shroud of ashes, to Salerno of the once famous medical schools, to Pæstum with the temples that were dilapidated when S. Paul landed at Puteoli, and to Amalfi which was for a time supreme at sea till the now moribund Pisa contested the supremacy.” (Sat. R.) “The reader of these pages, therefore, will collect, with a minimum of effort, a little history, a little folk-lore, a little biography, a little literary reminiscence, and a little appreciation of the places which interest him in these parts.” (Ath.)
“‘The Naples Riviera’ is a paradise of colour. It is therefore an ideal subject for a colour-book, and an artist so conspicuously clever in seizing and reproducing an effect as Mr. Maurice Greiffenhagen could be trusted to make the most of such an opportunity.”
