"An Illustrated Dictionary of Words used in Art and Archaeology" by John W. Mollett is a reference work written in the late 19th century. The dictionary aims to elucidate terms frequently encountered in the realms of art and archaeology, ranging from architecture to various art forms, including painting, sculpture, and decorative arts. It serves as an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and enthusiasts of art history and archaeology. At the start of this reference, Mollett outlines the origins of the dictionary, revealing that it began as an amended edition of a French work by M. Ernest Bosc. He emphasizes the comprehensive approach taken, incorporating definitions drawn from esteemed authorities across multiple disciplines related to art and archaeology. The opening portion also hints at the extensive inclusion of both illustrations and entries, ensuring that readers have a thorough understanding of the history and terminology related to artistic and archaeological practices.
