It is intended for those who have no special knowledge of pictures and painting, but are interested in them, and find themselves from time to time in public and private galleries and exhibitions. It will, therefore, make no appeal to the artist, the expert or the professional critic. Much art-criticism at the present day is so deeply erudite, or so special and scientific, that its influence is necessarily limited to those among the initiated who, after years of study and probation, can enter fully into its mysteries, and are therefore in no need of such simple suggestions as are offered here.
