APPENDIX
LISTS OF BOOKS FOR A WORKING LIBRARY IN
ART STUDY
Note: A collection of books for art study should contain: (1) a general handbook of the art of every country; (2) separate monographs devoted to the work of those individual artists selected for study.
Both classes of books are of two kinds: (1) the brief outline which simplifies and popularizes the subject, (2) the exhaustive special treatise, representing a study of original sources.
The following two lists are made up with these distinctions in mind.
