IHoRYALDsEN: His Life aud Works. By Eu-

NJ. Luyster. Illustrated by thirty i've Wood GUS
from the Masters Compositions; engraved by
Carbonueau from drawings by F Gaillard. Bos.
ION: Roberts Brothers. TborvaIdsen was a
great artist among artists Of the modern time
one of those who strongly influence Others, found
schools, and win great rcpulatoDs; but he was,
nevertheless, chiefly an imilator and representa-
tive OF Greek art, and was ruled BY the Greek
spirit, whether his subjects were selected nom
the Bible or the Greek Mythology. Art sponia.
neous and original has not been common in
moaern times. Thorvaldsen SAID once, in con-
versatlon: Have no represented pagan diyn.
ities2 Sill don't believe in them" Herein he
differed from his old Greek masters who did be-
tieye IN them, aud worked under the influence
OF popular faith in Apollo, Bacchus Minerva,
and all the rest Of these diyiuites. He was a
great artist, a great classical" master, who
had leading part IN The revival Of art" to-.
ward the beginning Of this century and later.
He was born in Copenhagen, Nov 49, 1870,
being the son Of poor wood carver His
parents named him Bartholomew; but he was
familiarity called Bertel, this being the Danish
equivalent Of Bartholomew; and in Italy where
much Of bis life was spent, Bertel became Al
bero. In this way he has become known
to the world as Albert Thoryaldseu. The
French excel in writing biographies, and
this is one Of their best. 1t is written
in bright graceful, attractive style;
and the biographer who drew from
all the best sources Of information, has
used bis rich and abundant materials with ex.
celient judgment, and done his work with that
positive interest in it which is so necessary 10
make such biography interesting to others
The portraiture OF Ihoryaldsen's life is remark
ably brilliant from the beginning Of his artistic
endeayors, on through his youth his studies and
work in Italy, his tray is and his social expert
cnces, 10 his i1al return to Copenhagen, where
he had q wonderful reception.
The book is necessarily a record Of art as well
as biography, and introduces eminent artists
with whom Tholyaldsen was associated. It
has, also, a complete descriptive catalogue of
his works. The Illustrations are from every
class Of the sculptures which made him famous
They were drawn and engraved by eminent
French artists, aud printed in Paris on India
paper The frontispiece is a finely executed
portrait Of the great sculptor The translation
by Miss LuySler is done IN the best manner. in
