BY BOUTET DE MONVEL. FROM“ST. NICOLAS” (DELEGRAVE).This book is the result of a request, made to me by the editor of the Ex-Libris Series, that I should write for him something about the Illustration of to-day.The idea, I must acknowledge, and I am glad to do so, is his, not mine. To the editor also I am indebted for much help, especially in the matter of the illustrations which the book contains; in fact,if he has not selected and chosen them all, he has performed the more difficult and thankless task of obtaining them. Only one who has gone through the drudgery of finding drawings or blocks, in magazine, book, museum, artist's studio, or collector's portfolio, and then of getting the permission of editor, publisher, curator, artist, or amateur, to use or reproduce them, knows what this means. I know from past experience, and I was therefore only too glad to shirk the work when I found Mr. Gleeson White willing to undertake it. I doubt, however, if he will ever again attempt such a task. For the appearance of the illustrations in the book he deserves the credit; for much advice and many suggestions of great value, as well as to the articles he has written, and the lectures he has delivered, on this subject, I am greatly indebted.
