Summary: "The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 15, No. 88, February, 1865" by Various is a periodical magazine written in the mid-19th century. This particular volume includes a collection of essays and articles on topics in literature, art, and politics, reflecting the intellectual and cultural concerns of the time. Given the date, the contents likely touch on significant movements in American society, especially surrounding the Civil War and its impact on art and political thought. The opening of this volume presents a tribute to Washington Allston, an American painter respected for his imaginative works. It recounts the evolution of Allston's recognition and influence, portraying his artistic journey from reclusiveness to public acclaim after an exhibition at the Boston Athenæum. The piece celebrates his unique artistic style, comparing it to renowned European masters and emphasizing that his ability to invoke emotion and thought through his paintings set him apart in the American art scene. The discussion encourages readers to reflect on the intrinsic value of imagination and artistry in a rapidly changing world marked by conflict and transformation.
