 convenient stepping-stone to a just appreciation of the most celebrated masters of painting. 

 An important feature of the work, and one which may save the traveler much time and ex- 

 pense, is the sketch presented in the appendix of the galleries of Florence, Rome, Paris, Venice, 

 Dresden, and other European collections." — New York Tribune.
