Two Volumes of Beauty and Sincerity




Water-Colour Painting of To-Day By Adrian Bury. 250 monochrome illustrations. 8 mounted colour plates.




Cloth 10s. 6d. Paper 7s. 6d.


This book will be a pleasant surprise to those who have been bewildered or disappointed by the violent champions of one or other of the many “ isms ” in art. It illustrates only pictures which the art-lover can understand and appreciate for
himself. An essential condition of the selection of the illustrations was that each picture must have subjectmatter, be technically well done, and have a message to convey.
The Observer : “ In Water-Colour Painting of To-day, a charming and artistic book has just been issued from The Studio office. It is certain to give pleasure and enjoyment to picture-lovers generally. There is a large collection, coloured and otherwise, of beautifully-produced illustrations, each reproduction being
accompanied by a brief appraisal of the artist’s work, and something of himself and his opinions.”


Oil Painting of To-Day By Adrian Bury. Over 200 monochrome illustrations. 8 mounted colour plates.




Cloth 10s. 6d. Paper 7s. 6d.


Water-Colour Painting of To-day, by the same author, was so well received as to prove con
clusively that public interest in works of art, of beauty and sincerity, is still a moving force in contemporary life.
The illustrations, each with the author’s descriptive remarks, present a picture of the paintings of to-day in many countries, England and America being particularly well represented.
Sheffield Telegraph : “ A more comprehensive collection of representative oil paintings of to-day cannot be imagined. The book, which has 8
colour plates and more than 200 illustrations in monochrome, is primarily designed to bring to
the attention of the art lover, works of genuine merit, which can be understood by the layman as well as by the student . . . the book on the whole is still another triumph of quality of the ‘ Studio’s ’ excellent publications.”
