Mr.. A. E. Gallatin on the
Art Of the Great War

Mr.. Albert Eugene Gallatin has
seryed on more than one committee
.,aving to do with artistic affairs re-
'atng to the war. He has done useful
york in their behalf; he has organized,
e has written, he has in divers ways
Naen helpful patriot, and all the time
&c has striven to maintain a high
artistic standard. Just now he comes
lefore the public with two evidences Of
lis devotion to that standard-an ex-
.libition and book; and both are to
ts cordially commended. The exhibi-
ton is at the Arden Gallery, where Mr..
Gallatin displays forty or fifty items
rom his collection-bronzes, drawings
nd prints. There are superb litho-
graphs by Spencer Pryse, Steinlen and
Forain. drawings by Raemaekers and
Boardman Robinson, medals by Paul
ianship. All these things are illus
and all of them have a certain artistic
value. He has made a fastidious Sc
lection from the huge mass Of ma
terial available. These pieces, which
ere SO often records of fact, are also
things of beauty. 1t is an admirable
little show, but if we had to choose be-
tween it and the book we would choose
the book. For very practical reason.
In his "Art and the Great War"

Gallatin has produced the one volume
which fairly cried aloud to be made
Nowhere else will the reader find pre-
ciscly what is offered to him here-a
comprehensive account of a, sub ject
previously dealt with only in scattered
catalogues and fugitive magazine ar.
ticlcs. As Mr.. Galiatiu says, there is
already considerable literature OF
the part played by artists in the war
and he appcnds serviceehlc bibliog-
raphy, but the fact remains that his
concise summary is unique. If the
reader wishes to know what America
did, or failed to do, in order to make
adequate pictorial records OF the war;
II he wishes to know about our posters
our military and marine camoufage
and our designation targets, or about
the artists we sent abroad, this is the
book TO consult. The efforts of Great
Britain and Canada are sketched in The
same way, a certain amount of French
work ia traversed. and a place among
the illustrations is found for the Meth

loved books and bindings as we'll as
prints and paintings. He collected
ancient classics and he missed nothing
significant in the modern field Indeed
his modern books, especially those of
French origin, form a particularly
brilliant group. Characteristic is the
copy of Emile Goudeau's "Paysages
Parisiens,' with wood engravings by
Lepsre There are seven marginal
water colors added by Lepere for Mr.
Avery, and the binding by Pagnant en-
