PERROT AND CHIPIEZ'S WORKS A HISTORY OF ANCIENT ART IN SARDINIA, JUDJEA, SYRIA, AND ASIA MINOR. BY GEORGES PERROT AND CHARLES CHIPIEZ. With 395 Illustrations. 2 vols., Imperial 8vo, 36*. From the DAILY NEWS. " This volume will be found rich in exposition and suggestion to the student, especially the thoughtful and instructed student, of the arts of design in their early religious, symbolic, and his- toric aspects. The attentive care bestowed on their examinations of monuments and remains of tombs, temples, sacrificial stones, gems, jewels, bas-reliefs, and coins, and the abundant knowledge brought to bear on their researches by the archaeologist and the architect, could hardly be surpassed by any examples of the proverbial German ' thoroughness ' in such investigations ; and the illustra- tions are in themselves a perfect treasury of knowledge gathered on the spot, and guaranteed by the authority of eye-witnesses. These drawings are most admirably executed and most effectively engraved." From the GRAPHIC. "It is almost impossible within the limits of a short notice to do anything like justice to these two remarkable volumes, which possess all the learning and clearness of exposition characteristic of French scholarship. M. Georges Perrot is too well known all over Europe as an archaeologist, and M. Charles Chipiez as an architect, for any joint work of theirs not to meet with instant recognition, and so clearly and pleasantly have they handled their subject that these volumes may be read with advantage by any one who takes an intelligent interest in antiquity. . . . The work is a monument of learning and patience, and its value is greatly increased by the excellence of its illustrations. It is a book to be studied by all who are interested in the arts and history of the ancient world." A HISTORY OF ANCIENT ART IN PERSIA. BY GEORGES PERROT AND CHARLES CHIPIEZ. With 266 Illustrations.
