Excerpt from Memoirs of Benvenuto Cellini, Vol. 1 of 2: A Florentine Artist Although many years have now elapsed since the first publication of Dr. Nugent's Translation of Cellini's Life, yet such are its intrinsic attractions, that time, instead of lessening its interest, appears to have even increased it, more particularly since the opportunities which have been again afforded of treading the ground he once trod, and of witnessing the scenes celebrated by his genius. As a very curious piece of auto-biography, this work undoubtedly possesses the most striking claims to attention. The Italian literati, indeed, particularly Baretti, Parini, and Tiraboschi, have carried their admiration of it to the very highest pitch, describing it as the most entertaining and delightful work in the whole compass of Italian literature; an opinion little differing from that of Lord Walpole, who regarded it as "more amusing than any novel."
