The Art Review.

A strong and earnest appeal for the requisite amount of money to build a monument in New York to the memory of General Grant embodies the most important feature of the first article in the January number of the "Art Review". To the artist, the short account of the famous "Gilder" of Rembrandt cannot fail to be both attractive and interesting. "An Outline Sketch" is the title of a pleasant picture of the distinguished American painter, Paul Reubens Smith. The closing pages of the magazine are entirely devoted to "Art Notes," which form a budget of interesting facts to artists. Apart from the literary merit of the magazine there are some extremely fine illustrations, the first of which is an etching representing "The Tow at Twilight," a scene taken from Long Island Sound. Besides this there are three exceedingly well executed photogravures.
