Japan
Its Soul as II Is Revealed in the
Color Print

At this season Of the year. when the
auction sales are constantly inviting
the amateur, there Is a special appro-
priateness in the publication Of dr
Basil Stewards Subjects Portrayed
in japanese Color Prints Il Is a
jewel OF a book, which the buttons

enriched BY nearly 800 reproductions.
some Of them In color. Mr.. Stewart
calls II a collectors guide. and that Is
precisely what Il Is in a very full and
practical sense. He tells the reader
how color prints were produced and
how they were first made known In
the West. he advises on the formation
and care OF q collection. He gives wise
hints on the detection Of forgeries' imi-
tatlons and reprints. He draws up
generously annotated list Of the lead
ing artists and then he launches forth
upon the main purpose Of his scheme.
MANY people" he says, collect these
color prints for the attraction Of their
pure beauty, but have only sAsn'
aeouaintanee with the scene or subject
they illustrate or the meaning which
the artists desire TO convey" The OBJ
servation is very much TO the point
The soul Of Japan as Il is mirrored
IN the color print remains often as
sealed book even 70 the lover OF the
print itself. Mr. Stewart breaks the
seals and does Il 80 skillfully. with such
a complete freedom from esoterie in
.erpretation, that the whole subject be

Of day.

calls the book, Just published by the
Harpers, and in It he tells his story
with q ,ivaeity belying the years TO
which his title testihes. There is
something preservative about an ar
tistic gift. II Is one OF the secrets
Of lasting youth. perhaps because IL
implies enthusiasm, gusto. Mr. Sim
mons has always had that, a durable
energy that has carried him through
all manner of adventures and kept him
steadily with his eyes set on beauty.
His career has been varied enough.
Starting among the stGid conditions
OF Concord, where as lad he often
saw Hawthorne and his wife pass by
arm in arm, Il has embraced Harvard,
lob hunting In the West. tenderfooting
In California with some picturesque
episodes) and then the Europe Of the
artist. Il Is with the last mentioned
phase Of his life that most readers OF
From Seven TO Seventy" will be most
concerned.
For the real clue to this artists
life read the account Of his meeting
with the painter, Boulanser III you

being a loafer and 'ehiquer' from that
moment" he says, "and realized that
only b. eigh, hours daily work and
hard digging could I become painter
All through his narrative runs the
spirit OF the artist for whom the
reetltude Of art exists. The appeal OF
his book is that Of the man who has
made some Of the finest mural deeofa-
tions Of his time. who has drawn ana
painted with true mastery. His talk
Is tha. Of the thoughtful workman the
best kind Of studio gossip. There are
personalities in his pages OF COURSE
and they arc delightful. Here Is
perfect passage about Bastien Lepage'

That elegance Of ornament" Is what
made his fortune. He knew how TO
adorn a wall or a ceiling. how 20 make

ing, how 10 give a mantelpiece charm.
Hence, as we have indicated, the revival
OF his style in our own times and the
formation OF something like an Adam
cult among the clients who give COM
missions 70 architects and interior dec
orators. lie was antique but not
austere. He handled Greek motives
with a light touch and often without
any diminution Of their purity. He
had, we repeat, talent rather than
genius, but II was talent OF a high or
der, the sort that implies taste. There
are illustrations in Mr.. Bottoms book
which are positively ugly There are
others which arc beautiful. II Is good
thing 10 have them ALL for the collec-
tion makes for discriminating study.
Emulated in the light Of such study

There arc some interesting allu-

volume just published by the Scrib-
ners, an invaluable analysis By Mr..
Fiske Kimbal, Of Domestic Archi-
lecture OF the American Colonies and
Of the Early Republic The author
shows repeatedly how the detail Of the
English architects was adopted over

teristically illuminating comment upon

Metropolitan Museum two years ago
and brought out now under the au-
/ spices Of the committee on educational
work at that institution. He has had
/ his predecessors IN the exploitation Of
one aspect or another Of his important
subject We remember with special
appreciation the volumes on "The
| Georgian Period" which appeared some
years since. But as a succinct docu-
mentation the present volume has
merit all its own. it begins with The
frame and stone houses Of the seven
teenth century, follows the develop
ments Of the later Colonial period, and
brings the subject down 20 those
earlier years Of the nineteenth century
which, os Mr.. Kimbal observes, mark
the ending Of chapter in the evolu-
/ ton Of style. There are more than
/ two hundred good illustrations, pre-
cious aecompaniments 70 really in
structivc text, and az the back there
is another delightful feature, a series
Of notes on individual houses, little
gold mine Of information. There is
nothing superficial about Mr.. Kimbali.
I He gives US the fruits Of true research
and. besides, the benefit Of a critical
point Of view. Architects will value
his work. We commend it particu-
/ larly also 20 the student Of American
art, the reader who wishes 10 visualize
the earlier stages Of our broad aesthetic
growth. In these houses you may ap-
prehend not only the skill Of our
craftsmen, but the taste Of our fore
fathers, the key 70 the movement
which gave us the foundations OF
school Of art.

propriately bracket another which had
its origin at the Metropolitan and is
