Close attention was given to Sen- ator Depew’s remarks, and he was inter- rupted by frequent applause. To Whom Credit ts Due. ‘The thanks of the public are due to Mrs. J. B. Henderson, who has labored unceas- ingly since the inception of the exhibition project; to the trustees of the Corcoran Gallery for their very practical interest and hearty co-operation in the matter, and to the artists who have labored to make the exhibition the most representative that has ver been held in Washington. The artists also owe their thanks to the trustees of the gallery and to Mrs. Henderson for the en- rprise which she has undertaken and so sfully managed in their behalf; for defatigable determination in overcom- ing obsta which wou'd have disconcert- ed and probably completely discouraged a person of le: energy and ingenuity. Mrs. k by Mrs. Westinghouse and the other y members of the committees having the Various details of the exhibition In charge. The action of the trustees in offering the hemtcycle of the Cocoran Gallery for the present exhibition marks an epoch in the growth of art in Washington, the possible results of which are hardly to be estimated, for it places the stamp of approval upon the works exhibited by one of the formost institutions devoted to the interests of art in the country and extends a helping hand to the earnest painters of the capital at a time when they were becoming discouraged in Waging a battle in which they had come to feel that the fortunes of war were against’ them A Creditable Exhibition. As to the exhibition itself ft is but little to that it is a surprise, not on’y to those who were fainthearted in their in- dorsement of it at the outset, but to the nt workers who but now have time to note through the cl importance of the po uring atmosphere the yn and the extent of the Victory they have won. The ple tures, several hundred in number, occupy every a tf of wall space in the hemicy which le, Ss on the greund floor in the north end of the building, and is indi- rectly connected with the main hatl statuary. The pictures in the hemc were lly intended to comp e main or most ble portion of the exhi- bition, but th ut number of works con- tributed car miuny of the bes things into the atrium or second floor colonnade gallery, Which was soon filled, and many good things, which were late in_ arriving, were reluctantly, though unavoidably, re- jected. The scheme of the exhibition is compre- hensive and in many ways unique. The pletures are hung as near as possible in groups, separating and containing the of each exhibitor, whose name is don a large card above. By this Zement an opportunity ts given for a# study of each artist's characteristics and Individual tendencies, and also to note any changes In style or tment, for many of the painters are represented by pictur-s paint different periods of their careers Another unusual feature is the absenc a catalogue. It was decided that for r it would be inexpedient to numbe: nd have the ordina pamphlet b rence, and the ver: practical scheme was devised of leaving the numbering and such details of cach group of pict to the palnter. ‘The idea has been carried out, and th are many variations which are interesting and in genious. Many of the artists have merely a card containing the name of the picture and its price of sale in a corner of cach frame, while othe astefully pre- dca ze, containing all of the public might red some- where desire, unobtrusively within their allotted Some of the Exhibits. The central space in the hemlcycle Is o¢- cupied by a number of notable portraits by Prince Troubetzkoy. The largest Is a fine- ly painted figure of a lady in a clinging white gown, who leans on the back of a slender chair. The color scheme is silver and gray, carried out in a most har- monious manner. ‘Th esting portrait of M the blac re ts also an inter: Su ainst a rund of , and the purity of the esh tints of which make a striking and effective whole. Prince ‘Troubetzkoy's work is marked by characteristics which justly entitle him to the eminent position which he holds. His other works shown are por- tralts of Mr. Seckendorf, Mademolselle Cas- gown ai sini, and Mrs. Richardson and young Mr. Richardson, Mrs. Barney, J. B.

They are sin- cere and truthful, harmonious tn tone and altogether dignified. An air of freshn is lent to Mr. Hinckley’s showing by the fresh- ly colored portrait of little Gladys Hinckley and the simple, childlike feeling in the win- some portrait of “Tom.” ‘The artist shows a number of other well-painted canvases, among them a fine sketch of himself and on an opposite wall a large figure compo- ion, entitled S. Jerome Unhl’s portrait of the late Judge Shellabarger 1s a strong and commanding work done in that direct and convincing way which comes of experience. Mr. Uhl also shows a bright fresh sketch of young Roland Barber, a sunny portrait of a little child in a white dress, who holds a toy kitten affectionately in tts arms; a three- quarter length of John B.

The large picture of the State, War and Navy Department building, painted during the blizzard of two winters ago, is also one of the same artist's collection. Mr. R. N. Brooke, one of the strongest of the local landscape painters, exhibits sev- eral of his representative works. Mr. Brooke is also noted for his figure studies, characteristic pictures of negro life. The most widely known is his “Pastoral Visit,” which belongs to the Corcoran gallery. One of his largest canvases is a sunset ef- fect. Beyond a dark mass of trees In the middle ground the fading light filters into the foreground and softly gftuminates the fixure of a woman who stooping to gather something from? thaj ground. One of the artist’ most attractive pictures 1s a simpte little view of a2harvest field. with a dog watching a lunc® basket, while his master is at work somé.distance away. It is full of sentiment and thoroughly charm- ing. Mr. Carl Gutherz exhibits a number of his best canvases in the hemicycle. Promi- nent among them is his ‘Temptation of St. Anthony.” a skillful handling of an original conception of the subject. Mr. Gutherz also shows some of his most im- portant decorative and allegorical subjects. Notable are “Arcessita ab Angelis.” the white-draped figure is being borne through radiant clouds by attendant angels, and a fine conception, entitled “The Morning of the Sixth Day.” Through an iridescent vel of mist a troop of angels and heavenly visions are seen, while the man and woman kneel in the foreground. The composition is vibrant with a sense of music. Mr. Gutherz’s work is marked by a fine quali of finish and displays a scho'arly familiar- ity with his subject: Mr. W. H. Hilliard is represented by an attractive group of canvases, These pictures occupy a central space on the north wall of the hemicycle and are hung to excellent advantage. They are painted in the artist's best_ manner and cover a wide range of subjects in landscape. Oak, Cali fornia.” and “A November Day" are prob- ably the most notable of the group. Al- though a number of the others may be more pleasing pictorlally, The first named is painted in a broad and convincing manner that appeals to the poetic sense, and “A November Day” is a serious and truthful transcript of nature and conveys much sentiment. Another group of pictures by the same artist is shown in the atrium. The subjects are scenes with which the artist is familiar from his long residence abro: the mills and dykes of Holland, quiet corners of old France and picturesque temples and bazaars of India and the Mr. Howard Helmick’s charming and truthful pictures of Irish peasant life form one of the notable water-color groups in the atrium. Mr. Helmick’s yital brush ves an air of color and happiness to his even when they depict grim smoked interiors, and clothes with { terest the most commonplace and ordinari abject. His technical skill and the purity of his color are what render his work su- perfor. One of the most attractive of his water colors shows two Irfsh maids dancing to the droning tune of an old piper seated by the roadside. The figures are treated in an extremely free manner and the land- scape portion of the composition {s par- ticularly charm. g. W. H. Holmes, whose work, unfortunate- ly, has been seen but little in Washington for several years shows a large and thoroughly Z collection of his water colors, “Mr, Holmes’ work is marke by extreme delicacy of color and deftn of handling. He delights in sunshine and the lyries of landscape.

Mr. Holmes a shows “A Group of Venetian Fishing Boats," which is full of color and life, and a number of pictures of field and woodland, all of which bear the marks of his skill. Another important showing of water col- ors is that of Mr. Henry Moser. Mr. Moser’s work is 3 mown ty every one who has attended the local exhibition held during recent years, where he has e er been a prominent and much appreciated ex- hibitor.

The most attractive of her pictures is that of a young woman in a low-necked gown and a large hat of black. The color touch is in the red Mning of her flowing cloak. Miss Sands and Miss Burdette, Miss Bertha Perrie and Miss Aline Solomons are bright stars in this group of specially tal- ented young women. Space is not avail- able in which to do justice to the merits of a score more of artists whose names are foremost in local art. Mr. Harold Mac- donald’s wonderfully vigorous portraits are not surpassed and barely equaled in most instances. Mr. Morse also shows a re- markably fine group of portraits. Mr. An- Grews 1s represented by his well-known figure of Dolly Madison and his carefully done picture of Wat Tyler. Mrs. Andrews shows a fine lot of sparkling water color heads; W._T. Mathews, a number of seri- ously painted still fe and flower pieces. Miss Gutherz's roses are;very charming. Mr. E. H. Miller and Mr. W. W. Christ- mas show a number of landscapes and other subjects done in their best manner. Miss Daisy Brown's contributions are worthy of her growing reputation, and Carl Weller’s row of water-color landscapes makes one wish that he-had added others. Delancy Gill's charming Color drawings re- call the delights of the! old days when he was a more frequent exhibitor. Mr. Frank Moss is also worthily represented by a number of excellent canvases. Emil Meyer shows a well-painted interior with figures, and Mr. Frank Clark a number of his bright bits of rural France. Miss Helen Nicolay, E. B. Ward, Mr. Parker Mann, Miss Pattee, Miss Glenfhan and Miss Co- 4%simo also do themselves full Justice, as do, in fact, all the artists, who have combined to make the exhibition the most Important and meritorious that Washington has yet known.
