...lesser men. He seems to have overlooked nothing. And he brings all, down to the most modest specimen, into his system. Of chief interest to the American reader, who has not the pictures before him to refer to, are Mr. Berenson's generalizations--the pages in which he sets forth his main ideas, or sums up some really important master, like Montegna or Corrreggio.
