GOWANS'S ART BOOKS 
 
 Nov. 1st, 1908. 
 
 Messrs. Gowans & Gray ask with confidence for the 
 continued support of this undertaking by lovers of art. 
 It is their hope to be able to cover the whole field of 
 classic painting by including all important artists who 
 were born before the year 1800, and the preparation of 
 new volumes is being carried on steadily and systemati- 
 cally with this end in view. 
 
 As new editions of the earlier volumes are required, 
 improvements are being introduced and doubtful pictures 
 replaced by genuine works, well-known authorities — 
 whose names are given — being followed in every case. 
 Rubens, V an Dyck, Rembrandt, Raphael, Reynolds, and Tenters 
 have already appeared in this improved form, and the 
 others which require revision are being actively pro- 
 ceeded with. 
 
 The publishers hope to accelerate the issue of the series 
 by publishing future volumes at regular monthly intervals, 
 and their efforts will be very much assisted if those who 
 appreciate the books will place standing orders, <'till 
 further notice," with their bookseller*. 
 
 They beg to announce the following : 
 
 22. THE MASTERPIECES OF TINTORETTO. 
 
 ^November, 1908. 
 
 23. THE MASTERPIECES OF POUSSIN.

^HE rublishers have submitted the selection 
 
 in the present vohime to Mr. Claude 
 Phillips^ Keeper of the Wallace Collection^ 
 author of zvhat is^ in their opinion, the best 
 book on Watteau extant ( Seeley <Sr* Co. , 
 London )y and in his opinion every picture 
 they have included is undoubtedly genuine, 
 and the collection of reproductions is one of the 
 most comprehensive that have hitherto been 
 placed before the public. Mr. Phillips has 
 also been kind enough to furnish the Publishers 
 with the approximate chronological order of the 
 pictures reprodticed, so far as it is possible to give 
 it from known dates of production or from 
 
 evidence the printings themselves afford. His 
 tentative arrangement is as folloivs : — pictures on 
 pages J4, IS, i6, 7, 22, sj, 2j, 24, 21, 20, 8,
