French Artists of our Day. (W. Heinemann. 3s. 6d. net.)—

In this series there have appeared volumes dealing with Courbet, Manet, and Puvis de Chavannes. In each case there is a short introductory note and a description of each illustration. In the case of the Puvis volume M. Michel has written sympathetically of the great decorator. The volume, as far as the illustrations are concerned, will not supersede the one devoted to this painter in the series published by Newnes and Co. a year or two ago.
