Head covering. fact is that John whorf is an individualist, taking his own way, working more or less in solitude, constituting a law unto himself—and that his achievement is very brilliant none will deny. An exhibition of Whporf's paintings was recently held in Mills College, California, under the direction of Roi Partridge, one of the leading artists of the West Coast, with an international reputation as an etcher. FOR the past fortnight or more, Phillip A. de Laszlo of London has been painting por- traits in Washington in the well appointed studio at the Corcoran Gallery of Art set aside for, visiting artists. Mr. de Laszlo is one of the foremost portrait painters today, a man of in- ternational reputation and outstanding achieve- ment. He has painted practically all of the royal personages of Europe and those holding high social position in the various nations. An exhibition of his paintings is an event of note in any o° the capitals of Europe, and to be painted by him is in itself an honor. Here in Washing- ton, where he is well known and has many friends, he has been painting, at the White House, a portrait of the President, and in his studio portraits of former Secretary of State Kellogg in his robes as a member of The Hague Court, of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Ogden Mills, of Mrs. Houghton, wife of our for- mer Ambassador; of Mrs. Snowden of Tennessee and the little daughter of Count and Countess Szechenyi. An exhibition of portraits by Mr. de Laszlo is to be held in New York beginning tomorrow and continuing for two weeks in the Knoedler Galleries for the benefit of the fund for the unemployed. This will include his re- cent portrait of Mr. Kellogg, one of Gen. Per- shing, one of Elihu Root and other Americans of distinction. Last June an exhibition of Mr. de Laszlo’s portraits was held in Paris, attract- ing wide attention and calling forth high praise. This exhibition embraced 103 portraits and other paintings, the majority of which were of persons of great distinction. Especially charming, however, are Mr. de Laszlo's informal paintings of interiors with members of his own family and sketches made just for the pleas- ure of the doing. An introduction to the cata- logue of his exhibition in London was written by the great French critic Camille Mauclair, Mr. de Laszlo is a rapid painter and a consum- mate draughtsman, one who grasps the essen- tials of character and likeness on the instant and sets them forth with great brilliancy. He is a genuine artist both in feeling and accom- plishment HE Phillips Memorial Gallery, with the pur- pose of extending its influence and privi- lege, has again lent a small collection of paint- ings by modern artists to the Public Library for exhibition in the fine arts division in the sec- o floor lobby of the central building at Eighth and K streets. Outstanding in this collection is George Luks’ now famous painting of Otis Skinner in “The Honor of the Family.” “Calla Lilies,” by Lillia n Moses. One of the paintings in the Society of Washington Artists show. Appropriate to the season is Augustus Vincent Tack’s “Madonna of the Everlasting Hills.” Of perennial interest is John Costigan’s exquisitely rendered “Wood Interior,” done with a tech- nique all his own, and Gifford Beal’s engaging circus picture, “The Elephants”—an appro= priately bright color scheme with red the dom- inant note. NEW feature and an additional attraction at the Phillips Memorial Gallery, 1600 Twenty-first street, is a series of musical after= noons, beginning Sunday, December 27, and continuing indefinitely every Sunday when there is no concert by the National Symphony Or- chestra. These concerts are held at 3 o'clock. The program for the first concert included selections by Tschaikowsky, Beethoven, Mary Howe and J. Alden Finckel; in each instance arranged for violin, violoncelle and piano. These concerts have been made possible by the co- operation of Mary Howe, who has done so much for good music in Washington. OMORROW evening, January 4, a private view of the January series of exhibitions at the Sears, Roebuck & Co. Galleries will take place. Cards have been issued by Theo J. Mor= gan, director of the art galleries. Sesostris Sidarouss Pasha, the Minister of Egypt, will be the special guest of honor upon this occa- sion, and a long and distinguished list of patronesses will be in attendance. Among the exhibitors are the members of the faculty of the Grand Central School of Art, Charles Aiken, Edward T. Huriey, Hugo D. Pohl and others. HE trustees of th> Baltimore Museum of Art have issued invitations to a private view and reception, marking the opening of the exhibition of the foreign section of the Thir- tieth Carnegie International Exhibition of Paintings to be held Tuesday evening, the 5th of January. This fore’gn section of the great international exhibition will be shown only in Baltimore and St. Louis, after which the paint- ings will be dispersed and returned to the artists in Europe. The exhibition will continue in Baltimore free to the public during the month of January.
