" Useful as bringing together in a compendious form an almost complete bio- 

 graphical stock of information respecting the painters of the world." — Mayfair. 



" The bulk of the book is occupied by a dictionary of painters which, considering 

 its small compass, is really admirable ; where onl^^ a few words are devoted to an artist, 

 his speciality is well indicated ; and the utility of a table of dates of painters in so 

 portable a form is unquestionable. We cordially recommend the book." — Builder.
