chaser. <{ And yet the pictures are worthy a distinguished place in the 



collection of the most discriminating connoisseur. 



For the first time in the history of art a collection of masterpieces is 



open to the possession of persons of taste and refinement who are not 



millionaires. 



A member of the Royal Academy, London, said of this group of 



Masterpieces: "In this age, when so many inartistic pictures are 



constantly appearing, //'* strit-x n,m(s as a boon to mankind, and should 



mean thf- dtthronemtnt. of the hideous productions which so long have 



occupied a place on our walls." 



That is the Mission of True Art 



These pictures give you an intimate knowledge of the great paintings 



that have been for centuries the inspiration of genius and the spring of 



culture. 



A home without the ennobling influence of art is without one of the 



greatest benefactors of intelligent society. 



The photo-mezzotint is superior to the best etching or engraving. The 



secret of this remarkable process remains with the European publishers 



who discovered it. We are the sole importers for America, and are 



prepared to furnish the pictures at a price surprising to all. 



The publication of " tCfje <SalIerp of 4Hastcrpictes> " allows no one an excuse 



for not having a home collection of art pictures that shall be both 



charming and educative to all who may have the privilege of its study 



and enjoyment.
