17. Reviews of Chats on Japanese Prints (5), 1915-16.

The work was well received by Arnold Genthe (Forum and Century 55 [1916]: 240) and in the Boston Transcript (9 October 1915, p. 8), the Independent (6 December 1915, p. 391), and elsewhere, but only Frederick Gooken (Dial 59 [1915]: 373) turns attention to the poems, finding them a ‘unique and delightful feature’ of the work and a help in introducing ukiyoe to its readers.
