Diirer. By H. Knackfuss. (Grevel and Co. 4s.)—The latest volume

of this series of monographs on artists is in every way equal to its forerunners. Professor Knackfuss always writes with insight, sympathy, and knowledge. The only criticism we have to make is that the work would be improved by being divided up under h -adings instead of being a continuous essay. The illustrations— there are one hundred and thirty-four—are as good as we are accustomed to expect in this series.
