Rings

By George Frederick Kunz, Ph.D.

The romance of the ring is one of great historic, sentimental, religious and mystic significance. This magnificently illustrated and artistically printed volume offers everything that is of importance and interest in regard to finger rings from the fabled Prometheus to the latest productions of the goldsmiths and jewellers of our day. The illustrations of all manner of rings and their wearers form a veritable treasure house. A superb book, written by one of the leading experts of the day, a book saturated with deep learning, wide knowledge, and a keen interest in the subject that takes on a new significance. A book of popular interest and extraordinary merit.

Six Lectures on Architecture

J. B. Lippincott Co.

By R. A. Cram, Thomas Hastings, Claude Bragdon The text comprises the eleventh series of the famous Scammon Lectures delivered at the Art Institute of Chicago. Dr. Cram discusses the beginnings and culmination of Gothic art; Dr. Hastings treats of the principles of architectural composition and Modern Architecture. Mr. Bragdon deals with Organic Architecture and the Language of Form. These notable discussions by leading exponents in their art of architecture deserve a wide reading and the attention of thinking people. Architecture is not an academic art, but an art that enters into every phase of modern activity. It is good to have such sane discussions of this important topic by such thoroughly competent practitioners.

Pictures of War Work in England

University of Chicago Press

By Joseph Pennell

Mr. Pennell presents an entirely modern and thoroughly novel view of war in this remarkable collection of pictures covering a vast range of industrial activities in England. Neither generals nor soldiers interest him in this we; but the colossal industrial effort necessary to carry on modern warfare. All sorts of industries are portrayed in this book in the highly skilful form that no one can equal this accomplished artist in the execution. Mr. Pennell not only portrays great industries but he gives artistic version of many commonplace things, things long thought incapable of artistic representation. The book, which is essentially a book of pictures, not only reflects England's greatest industries, but is masterly evidence of the great artist's powers.
