By PHILIP L. HALE

Three valuable handbooks on great portraits and Madonnas of the world. Printed in beautiful type, on heavy antique paper with broad margins, and daintily bound in buckram of special weave, with title-design stamped in gold. Each book contains about 80 pages 8 × 11 inches in size, including twenty exquisite full-page reproductions of famous paintings, some of which have rarely been reproduced.

The author, Mr. Philip L. Hale, a son of the late Edward Everett Hale, is himself a painter and art critic of reputation. The text is unique, comprising a critical analysis and comparison of the work of the master painters, not from the too common view-point of a critic who walks the galleries, but from that of a painter, who with brushes in hand is even now working on the same problems those he writes about have worked on. It has all the charm and spontaneity of an informal studio chat; and gives a new and fresh appreciation of art.
