It is beautifully printed and bound, and both letterpress and illustrations are exceptionally good." The Spectator.—"An excellent piece of work. . . . The criticisms, technical and aesthetic, are alike admirable in their clearness and reasonableness, and the fact that the author is a painter himself gives this work a value that the art criticisms of merely literary critics seldom possess."
