Qf E1uG. q lOUmudipH OF d. JGTIDSt H. 0u4HEAIH0

ANY IN off the great Madonnas is always a excellent gift. Besides

paintings of the Virgin, m of the finest Madonnas Iii Raphaels aMa-
donna 81 the Chair and his Madonna del Gran Duca"-socalled be-
cause the Grand Duke for whom 1t was painted carried 1t around with
him everywhere he went and worshiped before 1t q q ahrine-and the
Virgin of the Rosary" by MurIlo. The Madonna OF the Arbor," by
Gently.
Some of the other exceptionally beautiful religious pictures ire
|Rubenas Holy Family, velasquezs Joseph Coat" and rYt. Anthony OF
Padna and the Infant Jesus" Michael Angeles "Eoly Family" Andrea
del Sarto,s "St. John the Baptist Leonard di Vincfs Study of the
Head OF Christ" and 1.-THE Assumption of the Virgin" by Titan.
Leonard di vincPs Mona Lisa" just now so famous that 1T hardly
needy to be recalled, Van Dykes "Baby Stuart" and his "ChIdren of
Charles t." Rembrandts Portrait Of N Old Man" and his Portrait of
His Wife," velasquezs PORTRAIT of Infanta Marguerite" Tftan's la
Donna Bella" TintoreHos Marriage of Aradne and Baechus" are other
beautiful examples OF the secular work of the greatest painters. For a
musical friend one could hardly fnd q loyelier gift than RafaeBs "t.
Cecilia to hang over her piano.
Perhaps the work of the more modern artists will make a greater
appeal to man people. Almost everyone likes Greuze's work. "The VIII
Bride" and ssThe Broken Pitcher are among his best known works.
but any OF his girls heads are sure to be desirable. If YOU prefer land
scapes, Corofs are almost universally admired. THE Willows and
Spring" are considered among his best.
It would be dincult indeed. to find anyone who would not be
pleased with a good print of some of M1hets wonderful paintings. Some
of the best are "The Sowerssn 1.-THE Cleaners "The Sheepfod by Night"
1.-THE Water Carrier and 1.-THE Angelus'
Joshua Reynolds Innocence" and any of his angels heads, Gains
boros BLUE Boy and his Portrait OF Mrs. sdddons' make excellent
prints. For on who Is fond of animals, ONE of Landseer o r Rosa Bon
hours work would probably be pleasing. Rossettfs 4Beata Bearix" and
most anything OF Burne Jones would probably please anyone who likes
the modern school.
OF course, this is not by any means an exhaustive list Merely a
very few sketchy suggestions to the person who wants to buy good pic
lures and does not feel that he knows enough about art to select anything
good at random
