"He is unfortunately conservative in several ways; the dicta contained
in these pages are to be received as the private opinions of a man
who holds his opinions a little too seriously; but yet it is possible to
learn from these pages what rank an important picture in a Northern
Museum, little known to foreigners, holds among the other works of an
artist or of his school. Concerning buildings and their decoration,
too, the facts may be trusted; they are expressed in an intelligible way,
although the conclusions may be very rash. It is on the whole a use-
ful book for any one who will be cautious in accepting its artistic criti-
cism." Russell Sturgis.

"During his twenty years' incumbency of the professorship of art his
tory at New Haven, Professor Hoppin has seen much fine art, and
has meditated upon its significance; and it may not be incorrect to
characterize this book as a collection of those thoughts which seemed
to him the most valuable, either separately or in their combination.
The essay-like character of the book is explained in this way, and its
lack of systematic treatment largely justified. It is, of course, better
reading for the majority of readers-that is to say, for all those who
have no immediate purpose in their consideration of art problems-
than if the work were more scientifically constructed." Nation, 1902.
