Painters as Draughtsmen.

This article presents information on several books. "Drawings and Watercolors," by Vincent Van Gogh, "Drawings by the Holbein Family," by Edmund Schilling, and "Francisco Goya," by Robert Stoll, are some of the books mentioned. The titles listed above, are the most recent additions to the two series of Holbein Art Books, entitled respectively Watercolors and Pastels, and Drawing Books. The former, larger in format and containing thirty-two color plates, is the more expensive, but both series are moderately priced for what they offer. The plates in both series are excellent and the texts combine scholarship with insight. Moreover, there has been a plethora of picture books on paintings, with no account given to the painters' drawings and almost none to the process by which a work of art emerges.
