16 THE SUNDAY News and Notes of Art The Metcalf Exhibition Attracts Attention at the Corcoran Gallery of Art—One-Man Exhibitions—Paintings of Leo Katz at the National Gal This exhibition comprises 100 prints, all of which are of an essentially pictorfal character. This is as fine an exhibition of pictorial photography as has been shown in Washington. As. Mr. Olmstead, cus- todian of the section of photograph has very truly sald, “M. Misonne should have been a painter, so keen is his perception of artistic values, but he has chosen the camera for his interpretations of nature.” Amateur pictorial photographers especially will find much to enjoy and marvel at in this exhibjtion February. and Artists lery of Art.
