In the few months that the museum has been open it has not only had a remarkable attendance but it has been the recipient of num erous splendid gifts. Two magnificent paintings were added to the collection in the Talcott Art Room, one entitled, “Clearing Off” painted off the coast of Denmark, near Skaagen by Emil Carlsen, and the other a German Ssubject, “On the Rhine” by Colin Campbell Cooper. The people of New Britain can' take i pride in the work of'art it possesses at the Institute museum, as the paint- ings are by artists whose works are to be found in some of the more prominent are museums. To fully ap- preciate this fact it is necessar to know something about the artists. The ! painting spoken of by Cooper is one of a series of Eelgian, French and German subjects, doné by the artist some time ago. Some may ask is Cooper a well-known artist ? Colin Campbell:Cooper, A. N. A., of New York, was born in Philadelphia, Pa. Studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadel- bhia, and the Julian and Delacluse Acadamies in Paris. Bronze medal, Atlanta Exposition, 1895; W. T. Evans_Prize, American Water Color Society,-1908; Jennie Sesnan Gold Medal, Pennsylvania Academy .of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia, 1904; honor- able mention Washington Water Color Club, 1904; gold medal, Philadelphia Art club, 1905; commemorative medal ! as member of the Jury of Selection, United States section, Department of | Art, and of the International Jury of Awards. Universal Exposition, St. ! Louis, 1904. Member of American Water Color society and the New York Water Color club, New York; and the Phtledelphia Water Color club. Fellow of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the Rochester, N. Y., Art Museum. Mem- ber of the Art club of Philadelphia. Associate of the National Academy, New York. club of Philadelphia, Cincinnati Museum, St. Louis Museum of Fine Arts, Rochester Art Muspum, Art Club of Boston, etc. A stranger visting the awhile ago made the remark; ‘the paintings you have here are on a par with those shown in the best art museums in the country.” Such remarks are good to hear, Al- though the museum has not as large a showing of paintings as many cities can boast of, it has a wonderfully fine display and what it possesses is of the best. The more one visits the Aalcott Art Room the more pro- nounced will be the conviction that New Britain has a really representa- tive art collection.
