CHAPTER X

WALKS THROUGH THE GALLERIES — THE RYKS
MUSEUM

The Art of the Ryks Museum at Amsterdam
gives an almost complete review of Dutch art upto the latter half of the 19th century more or less
systematically arranged. We enter the building on the right of the Passage
Way and passing for the present the glass doors
that give entrance to the first or ground floor, de-voted to Industrial Arts, etc., we ascend the stair-
way which brings us to the large entrance Vestibule,
extending along the entire middle front of the
building. The decoration of this beautiful foyer
is harmonious. Fine art-windows, painted by W. J.
Dixon, shed a subdued light. They represent alle-

furnishing. Passing behind a screen, we enter the Gallery
