The article discusses several works on art literature. One such work is "Scottish Paintings, Past and Present," by James L. Caw. In this work Caw, has had a two-faced task. The work is one of painstaking antiquarianism. As such it gives a favorable impression. The book "The English House," by W. Shaw Sparrow, is primarily an historical essay in the popular style. Keenly alert to the social aspects of his subject, the author seeks novel and striking illustrations. In the book "The Art of the Metropolitan Museum," by David C. Preyer begins with a brief history of the museum and statement of its aims, and closes with a list of benefactors.
