which the work is furnished renders the task of
reference delightfully easy.

La Peinture en Europe: La Hollande. By
Lafenestre and Richtenberger. (Paris : Sociitb
Franqaise des Editions d’Arf.)—Holland is the
subject of the latest addition to this interesting
series of illustrated guide-books, in which MM.
Lafenestre and Richtenberger conduct their readers
through the principal museums and galleries of
Europe. It were impossible to praise beyond its
deserts an enterprise such as this, which covers a
long-felt and serious want, especially as the authors
give proof of sound knowledge and admirable
discretion in their choice of the works they have
reproduced. The volumes which have already
appeared are—“Le Musde du Louvre,” “ Florence,”
“La Belgique,” and “Venise.”

respects, were passed over by the judges owing to
their too massive character.
