Excerpt from Études in Modern French Art Go see the drawings by Raphael in the Louvre; see how he attaches his figure together at the knees and shoulders and hips; how careful he is to insist on this continuity of the form; how every bone hangs by a string to some other bone; and how careful he is to express this dragging and weight of the form. I have never seen a drawing by Gerome which did not insist on the same quality of nature. He may violently bend the joint of a figure, but what he insists on is the ﬂow of it, not the break of it. This continuity is one of the great traits of a figure by Gerome; another is, that when the conditions of the picture do not give a chance to tell all the facts about a figure, and when some have to be expressed and others omitted, he expresses the facts of the mechanism of the human frame, so that the figure, however slight, is a viable machine. He has sometimes shown a peculiar reticence in stating the facts about a figure, reducing it to its necessary parts; these slighted or subordinate figures remind me strangely of Egyptian images, and have something of the same dignity; an Egyptian figure always seems to say that the artist was capable of expressing more if he chose, but preferred to hold his tongue; the facts of anatomy seem to be all there, only enclosed in a sort of envelope; and the figure is sure to be not a bundle of limbs, but an unity, depending upon itself from head to foot. This summary treatment, perhaps inspired by his love for Egyptian art, is successfully practiced alone by Gerome among modern painters.

Excerpt from Modern French Painters: Illustrated With Over 100 Plates It is too early yet to inquire whether, among the artists here under consideration, there are some who may prove some day the peers of those great names. But of one thing I feel certain: if the not insignificant period of artistic history of which this book treats has brought forth one or several artists worthy of those Masters, it is among those I have studied here that he or they will be found.

Excerpt from Contemporary French Painters an Essay Since the publication of A Painter's Camp, the author's labors, as a writer on art, have been confined to occasional articles in various periodicals, and the art-criticism in the Saturday Review. Projects of a more important kind have been entertained in this interval; but, with one exception, have always been abandoned for the same reason, - the difficulty of writing anything of use without illustrations so nu merous and costly as to alarm the prudence even of liberal publishers. The present Essay, in which there is little detailed description of works that the reader has not seen, and which is accompanied by illustra tions sufficiently abundant to give a good idea of some of the principal artists mentioned, is a realiza tion of the author's wishes, so far as is compatible with the smallness of its scale and the imperfections of his knowledge. It appears to be more and more evident that criticisms of pictures which the reader has not seen are of no use, and that it is a waste of time to write them. This discouraging fact has not.
