The Year's Art. Compiled by A. C. R. Carter. (Hutchinson

and Co. 38. Od.)—This directory of artists and book of general information about picture exhibitions is as useful as ever. In the present issue is to be found an account of the new Gallery of Modern Art in Dublin, and also of the Kann Collection, that wonderful gallery bought in Paris for a million, and brought over to London to be sold piecemeal to the Americans. How many of these masterpieces, we wonder, will be burnt, like the Jean Francois Millet, in future San Franciscos ?
