Excerpt from Contemporary Art in EuropeThe articles on Contemporary Art in Europe which appeared recently in Harper's Monthly Magazine have been received by both the critics and the public with a gratifying degree of favor. This seems, therefore, to be ample justification for republishing these papers in their present form, with the addition of considerable fresh material. The illustrations commend themselves as excellent examples of the fine feeling for the art of engraving already reached by our best engravers.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
