SOME PRESS OPINIONS
“This delightful volume, with its scores of illustrated letters, and sketches and charming pictures, will be very widely welcomed. No one could wish for a more satisfactory memorial of the artist and her work.”—Daily Graphic.
“Whether as regards its subject, its letterpress, or its illustrations, this is one of the most delightful, as it is likely to become one of the most popular volumes of the series to which it belongs.”—Aberdeen Journal.
“Certainly one of the most beautiful monuments that could be erected to the memory of a modest artist.”—Daily Mail.
“By reason of its sympathetic treatment of an intensely interesting subject, of the charm, the quality, and the profusion of its illustrations, and of the faultless taste of its get-up, should rank among the favourite gift-books of the approaching Christmas season.”—Observer.
“A book which will delight young and old by its engaging charm.”—Jewish World.
“The volume, magnificent to behold, is a deeply interesting one to read, and should be peculiarly attractive to our readers.”—Gentlewoman.

BIRKET FOSTER
By H. M. CUNDALL, F.S.A.
Containing 91 full-page illustrations (73 in colour) and numerous thumbnail sketches in the text. Square demy 8vo, cloth, gilt top, price 20s. net.
It may safely be asserted, without fear of contradiction, that the dainty water-colour drawings executed by Birket Foster appeal to the majority of the British public more than the works of any other artist. He produced scenes from nature with such exactness and minuteness of detail that the most uninitiated in art are able to understand and appreciate them, but the chief features in his paintings are the poetic feeling with which he endued them, and the care with which his compositions were selected. He revelled in sunny landscapes with roaming sheep and with rustic children playing in the foreground, and in the peaceful red-bricked cottages with thatched roofs; it is, perhaps, by these scenes of rural England that Birket Foster is best known. He, however, was an indefatigable painter, and produced works selected from all parts of England, Wales, and Scotland; he travelled frequently on the Continent; Venice, as well as the Rhine, had its charms for him, and the picturesque scenery of Brittany has also been portrayed by his brush.
The collection of Birket Foster’s drawings reproduced in this volume is thoroughly representative, and is sufficiently extensive to include all phases of his work. The accompanying biographical text by Mr. H. M. Cundall will be found to be most sympathetic, intimate, and interesting.
A. & C. BLACK, SOHO SQUARE, LONDON, W.
GEORGE MORLAND
By Sir WALTER GILBEY, Bart.
AUTHOR OF “THE LIFE OF GEORGE STUBBS, R.A.”
Containing 60 full-page reproductions in colour of the artist’s best work. Square demy 8vo, cloth, gilt top, price 20s. net.
There will also be an Édition de Luxe, with letterpress printed on handmade paper, containing the earliest impressions of the illustrations, and limited to 250 signed and numbered copies, price £2: 2s. net.
There is plenty of room for another Morland book, especially when written by the greatest living authority upon the works of the artist, and where the illustrations are reproduced, with most excellent results, from masterpieces loaned from private collections hitherto mostly unknown to the artistic public, and of which only a few have either been engraved or gravured—at all events, not before reproduced in colour.
George Morland’s work is characterised by its great strength and beauty of colouring. To reproduce so many of his choicest pictures, and bring the book into this series, is no easy matter, but to ensure success the publishers have spared no efforts to make their reproductions worthy of the artist’s work and entirely satisfying to the collector and student.
The collection of pictures reproduced in this volume is thoroughly representative, and each illustration is a gem; they show the several phases of Morland’s charming scenes of English life in the renowned Academician’s time.
The student and all collectors and admirers of Morland will also rejoice to have the appreciative text by Sir Walter Gilbey.
