Press Opinion. 



"The author is evidently very thoroughly at home in regard to the technical subjects he has 

 set himself to elucidate, from the mechanical rather than the artistic point of view, although 

 the matter of correctness of taste is by no means ignored. Mr. Brown's style is directness 

 itself, and there is no tyro in the painting trade, however mentally ungifted, who could fail to 

 carry away a clearer grasp of the details of the subject after going over the performance."

Press Opinion. 



"In the course of a hundred pages with some forty illustrations Mr. Brown gives a very 

 interesting and comprehensive survey of the progress and development of decorative art. It 

 cannot, of course, be pretended that in the limited space named the subject is treated ex- 

 haustively and in full detail, but it is sufficiently complete to satisfy any ordinary reader; 

 indeed, for general purposes, it is, perhaps, more acceptable than a more elaborate treatise."
