THE INTERNATIONAL STUDIO

November, I got)

YOUR OWN LIBRARY is not complete
unless it contains Dr. William Lubke's

Outlines of the History of Art

Here is a rare opportunity to secure the new edition of this great standard
work at a price far below its regular publication price, and to obtain with it a
year's subscription to THE BOOKMAN, absolutely free.

The new edition which we offer is edited, minutely revised and largely re-
written and brought up to the present time by Russell Sturgis, A.M., Ph.D.,
F.A.I.A., the famous American art critic, and author of " A History of Architec-
ture," " The Artist's Way of Working," " The Appreciation of Pictures," " The Ap-
preciation of Sculpture," " The Appreciation of Architecture," " The Independence
of the Arts of Design," etc.

It is not cheaply printed and bound for this particular offer, but is the regular
new edition, exactly as sold in the bookstores for #10.00 net. The work is in 2
vols., 8vo, cloth (1200 pages), gilt tops, and design in gold on backs and boxed.
Fully illustrated with 130 full-page half-tone plates and 660 line cuts.

There is a table of contents in each volume and a most thorough index of
subjects and artists, and a separate index of illustrations.

" It is impossible within the scope of a short article to give an adequate idea of the beauty and the
value of these two volumes of the history of art.

u The subject-matter goes back to prehistoric and primitive art. It practically exhausts knowledge of
Egyptian, Asiatic, Greek, Etruscan, Roman, early Christian, Mohammedan, Romanesque and Gothic ait.

11 The second volume is given over to the art of modern times and to a study of all known schools of
that art. Practically there is nothing which comes under the art head which is left untouched in this
great work.

" Dr. Sturgis is an authority. He has amplified the work of Dr. Lubke, has made clear by his in-
sight and treatment many things which were obscure, and, to sum it up briefly, he lias made an eye-
satisfying and mind-satisfying art work. TIlis work is not for artists alone, nor for art lovers alone, for
that matter, but for every one who loves the beautiful."—Evening Post, Chicago.

" Liibke's ' H istory
of Art,' both in form
and in content, in
scholarship and artistic
criticism, ranks as the
best work of the kind
that has yet appeared
in English."

The Outlook.

"Wilhelm Lubke's
'Outlines of the His-
tory of Art,' for many
years one of the most
popular, useful and
authoritative works ac-
cessible to the public,
has been taken in
hand by Mr. Russell
Sturgis, who has mi-
nutely revised it
throughout, making
of it a strictly new
edition and something
more."

The Dial, Chicago.
