Excerpt from Valuable Oil Paintings, Water-Color Drawings, Etc., Belonging to the Hon. Milton S. Latham, of San Francisco, Cal: On Exhibition, Day and Evening, at the Leavitt Art Galleries, 817 Broadway, Cor. 12th Street, New York No commendation is needed for this remarkable collection of gems of art - the productions speak for themselves But it may be safely asserted, that, for high average value, no such collection has ever been offered to the American public. As a rule, the pictures have excellent subjects, and are important examples of the artists, many of whom are seldom represented in this country; they were chiefly painted to order, or purchased at the various art centres of Europe, Mr. Latham sparing no cost to procure choice specimens.
