GOWANS'S ART BOOKS 



Sept. 1st, 1909 



Messrs. GOWANS & GRAY ask with confidence for the 

 continued support of this undertaking by lovers of 

 art. It is their hope to be able to cover the whole 

 field of classic painting by including all important 

 artists who were born before the year 1800, and the 

 preparation of new volumes is being carried on steadily 

 and systematically with this end in view. 



As new editions of the earlier volumes are required, 

 improvements are being introduced and doubtful pictures 

 replaced by genuine works, well-known authorities 

 whose names are given being followed in every case. 

 Rubens, Van Dyck, Rembrandt, Raphael, Reynolds, Tenters, 

 and Hals have already appeared in this improved form, 

 and the others which require revision are being actively 

 proceeded with. 



The publishers hope to accelerate the issue of the 

 series by publishing future volumes at regular monthly 

 intervals, and their efforts will be very much assisted 

 if those who appreciate the books will place standing 

 orders, "till further notice," with their booksellers. 



They beg to announce the following, with approximate 

 dates of issue : 

 27. THE MASTERPIECES OF DURER [Sept. 1909 



29. THE MASTERPIECES OF LOTTO [Sept. 1909 



30. THE MASTERPIECES OF LUINI [Sejt. 1909
