Excerpt from Landscape Painting
It is to be regretted that the art of color printing has not yet reached a stage of development where it can be trusted with the reproduction of a mas terpiece of landscape, which often de pends for its beauty on color-tones and color-transitions of extreme delicacy. In the present volume it has been judged best to confine the reproduc tions to simple half-tones in black and white to give no color rather than color which is false and misleading; and the illustrations here included are therefore presented, not as adequate representations of the works them selves, but as hints and suggestions only of the qualities'which give to those works their distinction and their beauty.

Excerpt from Landscape Painting
This little book represents the fulfilment of a promise to put into permanent form certain impromptu talks on landscape painting given before the Art Students' League of New York at its summer school at Woodstock, N.Y. No effort has been made to elaborate the themes treated, the writer feeling that what might be gained in literary form might very well be lost in spontaneity and conciseness of statement. It is hardly necessary to say that these little talks make no claim to infallibility of judgment.
