“The impression made by the book is satisfactory, and it will undoubtedly be of service, especially to the beginner in the study of classic art. Mr. von Mach shows a thorough knowledge of his subject, and there is a pleasing independence of view, although the influence of the great teachers is plainly seen. There are a number of typographical errors.” James C. Egbert.
