Edited , with Notes , by SIR CHARLES EASTLAKE , R . A ., President of the Royal Academy . ' By far the best manual we are acquainted with , for very one who , without the opportunity of foreign and particularly Italian travel , desires to make a real study of art . Its method , its chronological arrangement , and its generally judicious criticism , make it most instructive to a learner . "—The Ecclesiastic . " Those who require a succinct compendium of the history of Italian painting , will find what they need in Kugler ' s Handbook of Painting , edited by Sir Charles Eastlake , with numerous and well-executed illustrations of the most celebrated paintings referred to in it . "Murray's Handbook of Italy . BIOGEAPHICAL ^ ICTIOMET OF ITALIAN PAINTERS . EDITED BY RALPH N . WORNUM . With a Chart of Contemporary Schools . Post 8 vo . 6 s . 6 d . " As a portable compendium on Italian painters , the traveller will find no work in a small space so useful as this ; indeed it may be considered as a necessary companion or supplement to the Handbooks of Italy ; except in rare cases , tlie artist even will find in it all the biographical details necessary for his purpose , with indications of the principal works of each painter , and a very clear view of the connexion of the different Italian schools of painting with each other . " —Murray ' s Handbooh of Italy . HMDB 00 KF 0 B YOUNG PAINTERS . By C . R . LESLIE , R . A . With Illustrations . Post 8 vo . 10 s . 6 d . " The volume contains an interesting general view of the art of painting , as displayed in the works of the best masters of all schools ; it is clearly and elegantly written , without resort to technical terms ; and it is likely to be even more useful as a series of lessons to nninstructed picture-seers , than as a Handbook for Young Painters .
