There are nudes and most of them are decorative rather than fig- ure paintings. Two posthunious paintings, among the last works of John Singer Sar- gent and Willlam Metcalfe, are among those exhibited. The Bargent is one of those found in the phainter's studio after his death a few months, go. It portrays “Shoeing ot alry at the Front” in the world war, The Metcalfe painting is onc of his typical landscapes, “Joyous May- time,” done in the delicate green tints of budding leaves and fresh green grass.
