Gatherings from an Artist’s Portfolio.

By JAMES E. FREEMAN.


One volume, 16mo.
Cloth $1.25.

“The gifted American artist, Mr. James E. Freeman, who has for many years been a resident of Rome, has brought together in this tasteful little volume a number of sketches of the noted men of letters, painters, sculptors, models, and other interesting personages whom he has had an opportunity to study during the practice of his profession abroad. Anecdotes and reminiscences of Thackeray, Hans Christian Andersen, John Gibson, Vernet, Delaroche, Ivanoff, Gordon, the Princess Borghese, Crawford, Thorwaldsen, and a crowd of equally famous characters, are mingled with romantic and amusing passages from the history of representatives of the upper classes of Italian society, or of the humble ranks from which artists secure the models for their statues and pictures.”—New York Tribune.

“‘An Artist’s Portfolio’ is a charming book. The writer has gathered incidents and reminiscences of some of the master writers, painters, and sculptors, and woven them into a golden thread of story upon which to string beautiful descriptions and delightful conversations. He talks about Leslie, John Gibson, Thackeray, and that inimitable writer, Father Prout (Mahony), in an irresistible manner.”—New York Independent.

HOME AMUSEMENTS.

By M. E. W. S.,
AUTHOR OF “AMENITIES OF HOME,” ETC.

“There be some sports are painful; and their labour
Delight in them sets off.”

“Ye elves of hills, brooks, standing lakes, and groves;
And ye that on the sands with printless foot
Do chase the ebbing Neptune, and do fly him,
When he comes back!”

I do invoke ye all.
