Rome and the Renaissance: The Pontificate of Julius II.

Translated from the French of JULIAN KLACZKO, by JOHN DENNIE, author of " Rome of To-Day and Yesterday," etc. With 52 illustrations. 8o $3.50

"Klaczko's essays are full of interest, not only on account of the grace and brilliancy of his manner of treating history and the vivacity of his style (which is recognizable even in translation), but for the immense suggestiveness of his ideas and the light they shed on disputable problems of the time they treat of. ... Klaczko is never dull : he has the gift of telling a story well, and creating the atmosphere of the people of whom he writes."—The Nation.

The Art of the Italian Renaissance.

A Handbook for the Use of Students, Travellers, and Readers. By Professor WOLFFLIN, of the University of Munich. 8o. With over 100 illustrations .... Net, $2.25

"One of the best of the various books recently given to the public on the Art of the Italian Renaissance. The author has been able with a severe self-control and a clear perception of the limitations of his design to deal from the purely aesthetic standpoint with some of the chief works of the Renaissance. The narrative is an admirable example of clearness of treatment. The author writes tersely and always with a definite meaning, and his strokes are clear and telling."—The Speaker.
