4 BRIEF STUDY OF HIS LIFE AND ART.
In discussing the work on NelasGuez which
MI r. A. NJ. Stevenson published about TOUR
years ago We expressed the hope that some day
the merits II the book might be made more
familiar by its appearance in a smaller ana
chcapcr edition. This wish has been fulfilled,
the Macmillan Company embodying the bIik OF
what Mr. stevenson had to say in the series OF
monographs on The Great Masters in Painting
and Sculpture" to which We have already
faNoraby alluded. The author has amplihed his
biographical data. and the editor OF The series,
Or williamson. provides catalogue OF the
works Of NelaslueZ and photography Ihere
ale numerous illustrations. Mr. Stevenson
"Velasqucz" is a practical little handbook,
guide that should Ice really seryiceabe 20 So
j,urnors in Madrid. 1t is practical because the
criticism is Illuminating in essence and is clearly
put The impetus given to admiration Of the
Spanish master has come from artists and "rit-
crs who have now and then allowed themselves
to be too esoteric Mr.. Stevenson keeps cool
head on his shoulders and writes in way to
facilitate understanding Of his theme
