Ridden Treasures at the National Gallery. By E. T. Cook.

(Pall Mall Press. 5s.)—Here is an account of some of the

Turner drawings in the eleven boxes which still remain unseen

in the National Gallery. Mr. Cook has examined this great collection, and tells us that there are numbers of water-colours in

it as fine as any of those that have been shown. To judge from the photographic representations of these works published in the volume before us, this is no exaggeration. Those who are interested in the greatest artistic bequest ever made to the nation will find much worth reading in Mr. Cook's study of the subject.
