The Wallace Collection in Hertford House. By M. H. Spielmann.

(Cassell and Co. le.)—This is a readable and nicely illustrated little book. Mr. Spielmaun apologises for talking about the prices of works of art, but surely every one likes to know the relative values of things? He tells an amusing story of how Terborch's "The Peace of Munster" was nearly refused by the National Gallery when it was offered by Sir Richard Wallace, but we must refer the reader to the book for this, as it is too long to quote.
