A Catalogue Raisonne of the Works of the Most Eminent

Dutch Painters of the Seventeenth Century. By C. H. de Groot. (Mac- millan and Co. 26s. net.)—This is the second volume of a cata- logue based on the work of John Smith, and translated by E. G. Hawke. Only two names figure in this volume of nearly seven hundred pages, those of Cuyp and Wouwerman. This fact gives some idea of the exhaustive nature of the book.
