Hill. Much interest attaches to Fanny Mahon King’s painting, “Heart of the Swamp,” an excellent picture of a South Car- olina cypress swamp. Among the water colors is another swamp scene, “Sun and Shade,” by Alice Huger Smith, _well known both for her water colors and her woodblock prints in color. This, too, is a cypress swamp, but two blue heron stand prominently a blaze of sun before one of the great tree- the foreground. are some excellent flower paintings in addition to those already mentioned, notably, of magnolias, white against white, by Mary Townsend Mason, and “White Iris,” by Ruth Pershing Urler. From William Woodward, formerly of New Orleans, now of Biloxi, Miss., comes a beach boat scene, “Luggers,” and from Gideon T. Stanton of New Orleans comes a painting of “Cobwebs of Moss,” an unusual theme well terpreted. Besides which there are a number of excel- lent figure paintings—“Nita of New Orleans,” Of unusual colorful interest and sensitive rendering is a painting of azaleas by Hattie Sausay, the talented wife of the present Mayor of Savannah. If painting of such strength and merit is . our South there is every reason to te a renaissance of art in this section of the country. 188 GRACE McKINSTRY, who is spending the greater part of the Spring in Washing- ton, has lately completed a portrait of Theodore C. president of the Luray Caverns Co.

The face is strongly mod- eled, good in color and expression, and the whole effect is pleasing.

Y. exhibition of bronzes by Harriet W. Prishmuth at J. H. Small & Sons, Dupont Circle, was happily extended beyond the time originally announced for its closing. Included in this exhibition were two fountains purposed for garden placement, a number of half sized figures and several charming little statuettes, practically all nudes. Among these statues and statuettes was the figure entitled “The Vine,” which has recelved many awards and the rning Among the Cross-Wo Continued From Sixteenth Page dancing figur full of rhythm, charm and gayety. There is & nymph-like quality in all Prishmuth’s figures which suggests propriateness of landscape setting. Greeks, she has studied intimately the human figure, but unlike them, she re-endows her sculpture with life, energy, emotions.
