Excerpt from Illustrated Catalogue of the Paintings of Old Masters Chas. Sedelmeyer, Publisher and Art dealer in Paris, has the richest stock of original paintings in Europe. His gallery includes over 5oo pictures by Old Masters, of which this Catalogue describes only a portion, and a similar number of pictures by living artists and of the Barbizon School. Chas. Sedelmeyer, who imported and sold to the United States the two celebrated paintings by Munkacsy Christ before Pilate and Christ on Calvary, controls the works of this artist and those of V. Brozik, Tito Lessi. Eugene Jettel, etc. He publishes every year some highly artistic and important plates of which only a small number of proofs are printed. He is preparing now a most extensive book in 8 volumes on Rembrandt, containing the reproductions of all the works of this master; the text to be written by Doctor W. Bode, Director of the Berlin Gallery. Subscriptions now to be taken. The prospectus of this book and the illustrated catalogues of the other publications to be had at Chas.
