GOWANS’S ART BOOKS 
May 1 st, 1910 
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 earlier volumes are called for, 
improvements are made, when considered advisable : 
newly discovered pictures are inserted, and opportunity is 
taken to discard inferior pictures if others of superior 
merit are found to be obtainable. 
The publishers hope to accelerate the issue of the series 
by publishing future volumes at the rate of at least 
twelve yearly, 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 :
