Southeast Corner 15th and Crittenden Streets makes an excellent and im- | | bition in the Corcoran Gallery of Art, which opened November 4 and con- tinues through December 3. OIll paint- ings, miniatures and sculpture to the number of seventy-six occupy the semi- ciroular special exhibition gallery, and certainly no concessions need be made to the artists exhibiting because of sex. In every respect the work stown is as virile as that done by men. Indeed, it is a surprising display, Ouwner Forced to Sell at Sacrifice Eight large rooms and two com- pletely equipped baths; every mod- ern appointment incident to a high- class home.

Turning first to consideration of the paintings, note is made of the fact there is great diversity; there are figures, landscapes, street scenes, boats, flowers and still life, and even the last are rendered with that strength which is commonly asso- clated with masculinity. To the right of the doorway as one > enters is a long panel showing a broad sweep of western scenery. It is entitled. “Out on the Hopi Mesas,” and is by Mary Russell Ferrell Colton. To the right are two donkeys with colorful packs, off in the distance is one of the mesas. The sky is partly i clouded and the sunlight, breaking through, rests with intensity on a di tant spot. It is a large subject ad-, mirably handled and possessing strong decorative effect. Such a painting would make an excellent over mantel. Beyond, passing from right to left, attant!on is caught and héld by a painting life size by Susan Ricker Knox of an émigrant woman, “Madame E. from Moscow, splendid char- acterization, boldly and vigorously set forth. The woman's face and hands are equally expressive. Irma Kohn contributes an attractive Mclure entitled “From Hill to HIIL" painted in all probability in the neighborhood of Gloucester. Jane Peterson and Felicle Waldo Howell_each send pictures of Glou- cester harbor. Miss Howell's is en- titled “The End of Day,” Miss Peter- son’s “A Quiet Harbor” Both are dominantly gray in tone, but very differently handled, Miss Howell's — e ——— being much _the subtler of the two. g Elizabeth Wentworth Roberts, sec- 3 retary of the Concord Art Assoclation, % sends & charming picture of Concord b a in May, not a picture of houses and -y streets, as one might suppose from the 3 title, but of & ‘meadow freshly green, cA" aE GURED 3 through which a little brook, mirror- ing_the blue sky, gently meanders.
