HOKUSAI. By C. J Holmes. With Twenty full-page Plates, including Four Plates printed in Colours. Second Edition.

Le Mercure de France.—'Ce beau volume est nécessaire à tons les artistes et à tous ceux qui aiment l'art.'

GIOVANNI BELLINI. By Roger E. Fry. With Twenty-three Full-page Plates, including Three Photogravures. Second Edition.

Literature.—'A model of its kind. It is beautifully printed and bound, and both letterpress and illustrations are exceptionally good.'

The Times.—'Mr. Binyon's series is evidently aiming at a high ideal of scholarship.... Mr. Fry goes to work in the right way.'

ALTDORFER. By T. Sturge Moore. With Twenty-five pages or Illustrations, most of them in tints.

The Saturday Review (in two-column notice).—'Mr. Sturge Moore is the right sympathetic expounder of this half-childish secluded nature. His own imagination, with its delight in quaint surprises of observation and sharp simplicities of expression, fits him to handle an art that is not for everybody, and at whose gates heavy trespassers should rather be warned by notice-boards than strollers invited by guide-posts.'

GOYA. By Will Rothenstein. With Twenty Full-page Plates, including Three Photogravures and Nine Tinted Prints.

The Athenæum.—'Both on the technical and æsthetical side there could be no happier combination of writer and subject than the present. Not only has Mr. Rothenstein been deeply influenced by Goya's painting, but the spirit in which they approach life and nature is similar, and their forms of activity are the same.... Fortunately he exhibits a power of exposition often denied to artists. He can make us see and weigh the qualities which have given Goya so great an influence on the development of modern art. Whether dealing with the general principle of an artist's appreciation of a master, or more particularly with Goya's relationship to the romantic revival of the early nineteenth century, every word should be weighed.... The publishers have done their work well.'
