"A volume got up in excellent taste, and written in a right spirit; critical so far as criticism could be allowed, but always suggestive, and testing opinions by reference to principles. As if to perfect the interest of the Work, its fifty-six illustrative engravings have all been executed by women; and some amateurs, Lady Callcott and Lady Palgrave, amongst others, have gracefully contributed drawings, and thus associated their names with their sister artists. The Work is professedly a Guide-Book, and excellent in its way ; but it is also a handsome volume for a drawing-room table, and worthy an honoured place on every lady's library shelves."—Athenaeum.
