Copyright, 1900, by Seymour Eaton. —s L FAMOUS ART GALLERIES OF THE WORLD. PR S eL YE (Concluded.) To obtain a fair idea of school of art the student must not only become familiar with the great museums of Berlin, Munich and Dresden, but it would be well also to seek the home of Albert Durer, the greatest of all the Ger- man artists—Nuremburg—perhaps the | most fascinating town in Germany, and certainly the quaintest. Durer, born in 1741, when Nuremburg was at the acme of its commercial and political glory, made his first essays in art under the teaching of Wohlgemuth, whose style seems to us now incredibly hard and un- sympathetlc, reflecting in its stolid and emotionless types of character the heart- less, cruel and brutal spirit of the middle ages. Durer freed himself almost entire- Iy from this style, thanks to his superior force of character and his intelligence. How much he surpassed his teacher is demonstrated by the portrait of himself © PORTRAIT OF ALBERT DURER BY HIMSELF. (From a painting at Munich.) | in the Munich gallery, one of his early works. That he had not wholly outgrown | master, however, is shown in the thin ainting, the hard handling, the painful minuteness of detail; but, on the other hand, the modeiing is skillful, the color subdued and warm, the effect broad and lifelike. There is an unpleasant hint of aggressive self-conceit in the head, and the likenesses that Durer painted of him- self when age had somewhat toned down his complacency will be found more at- on. Durer's method is 1 later examples of por- his skill in illustra traiture in Munich, where microscopic detail is carried to the ex- tremest limits of h. His portrait of the once-famous Burznmd*!e\" Holzschu- her of Nuremburg was bought by the Ber- 1in museum fc about $93,000—then the largest price e for a_portrait, and one of ti id for any paint- e the ing up te im, 0 apprec EreatTadvance that Durer made over his predecesso; nd especially his angular master, Wohlgemuth, it is nece ¥y to observe only the first work that comes to while his mature efforts suppose us from his hand, are such that one would hardly them,to belong to the same school worK. which is at once most profound in lhnn’hl and accomplished in technique, is the ¢ nted for the council 1 nd_known as “The ir Temperaments.” The figures repre- t the Apostles John. Peter, Mark and Paul: from their location in the ancient hall of justice they are thought to have ad a legal il Recorder. Whatever r's idea, it is easy to omplete abandonment of former tra in religious painting. When these figur were produced Durer had become an adherent of the principles of the reformation, and we may regard them as a confession of his new faith. The work is certainly superior in breadth and beauty to anything he had before at- tempted. Perhaps the greatest religious | ment, and } may have been Du see in his work work that Durer ever created is “The ! Trinity. Surrounded by Angels.

The description of | ner is amusing not only on account of h medieval German dress but because the | artist has made her so unconcerned and | inexpressive just the degree that has evidently tried to make her seem con- mte and depressed. Cranach did not ¢ fine himself to religious painting; he cu tivated the nude also, and essayed the il- lustration of classical fable, for which he had not the slightest qualification. He had a way of depicting Venus entirely nude save for a wide brim velvet hat— which may have been retained as a del cate tribute to propriety. Cranach has also left us some interesting portraits of Luther—almost the only authentic ones | we have of the great reformer. Hans Holbein the younger may be re- garded as somewhat outside the general fleld of German art, for his style was his own, and neither took from nor added to the ordinary practice of the school. All his life, after the age of 23, was spent in England, where no orth mentioning then existed and where he was left equally without guidance or control.

Most of Holbein's work was done the service of the English monarc Henry VIII, whose devotion to the holy state of matrimony is so well known. Hol- bein_painted him repeatedly, and also all his Queens. His likenesses of Henry VITI are familiar to all, and they are possibly as valuable and trustworthy contributions to history as anything that has ever been written about him.

An invitation has been extended to the Pioneers to attend a reception to be given in their honor at the N. G. W. building on the afternoon of Tuesday, September 11. The committee having the matter in charge consists of Thomas E. Curran, James D. Phelan, E. W. Levy, Frank L. Coombs and H. C. Gesford, From data obtained from the Southern Pacific Company it appears that 2200 pas- senger cars will arrive at the several de- pots during Saturday and Sunday next. Allowing fifty passengers to each car, that will mean an influx of 110,000 strangers in San Francisco by that one system alone. There are no figures as to the number of persons that will come to this city by ferry, ocean steamers and other Hne! of railroad. The commllxe on_hotels and accommodations is of the opinion that by next Sunday night there will be about 200,000° strangers in San Francisco. i The joint reception committee of the Native Daughters of the Golden West has secured the parlors of the Native Sons’ Hall for headquarters during the celebra- tion. The cnmmmee consists of Mrs. George Perkins, Miss Minnie Klevesahl and Miss Carroli. The daughters who are on the hotel and accommodation commit- tee have secured rooms in the ferry building. The general committee held its last meeting prior to the celebration last night and listened to the final reports of the several sub-committees.
