The article focuses on the book "A History of European and American Sculpture From the Early Christian Period to the Present Time," by Chandler Rathfon Post. For these two beautiful volumes, a remarkable work, the author will be thanked by many students for long years to come. If he has not entirely escaped the academic aloofness which so tantalizes the practitioner of the arts, he yet reveals an enthusiasm for research as well as an ability to form independent judgments and to express them. They usually esteem new acquaintances according to their appreciation of old and established friends, and it is quite instinctive to use one's favorites in art as the touchstone by means of which to rate new critics.
