IMMER is enpposed to be | || the dead eenson here in all art activities. Thet is an/ crroneous idea, as tay-et-| homes in the city must| have found out long since. Just because some shutters are up along Picture Lane, | and no million-dollar euc-| tion sales of old masters are getting space in the! newspapers, there is no ren-| eon to imagine that all tho painters and eculptors aro| | loafing, or that the metro-| politan and visiting public patronize roof gardens and sea beach vaudeville exclusively. The attendance at the Metropolitan Museum of Art alone aver- ages 50,000 a month, all through the summer. Oopyists by the, doven are always at work there, especially on Momdlays and Fridays, ‘the two pay days, when they are not eo liable to be annoyed by the crowds climbing over their easels. Brooklynites go to the Institute Museum es regularly es to church. Whole cleaves from the Art Students’ League, armed with per tits to go on the grass, now use Oentral Park as a happy sketching ground and free open-air art echool. This local Barbizon is no bad eubetitute for the famous French one, or for the thumb-boz colonies at Lyme, Woodstock and Shinnecock Hills. Another ad- venturous group of young impressionists has been exploring the picturesque brewery regions of Staten Island, which travellers eay recall the landscapes of the Dusseldorf and Munich echools, As regards going abroad for art etudy, the annual prizes in the painting, sculpture and architectural competitions of the American Academy in Rome have just been awarded in New York. A young eculptor from Macdougal Alley, a successful student of painting from the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts, and a Denver boy who has been taking the architectural course at the University of Pennsyl- vania, each have won the legendary and glamourous “prize of Rome.” These scholarships mean $1,000 @ year each for threo years, travelling expenses to and from Rome, and free residence in the Academy there during the sojourn. Some of the greatest artists of modern times'date their careers from the grand bovst of a prize of Rome. ‘ When October shall ring in the opening of the gallery and etudio season, there ought to be no dearth of pictures by old masters and young, academic and independent. An art-loving public and growing patronage await them. There would be more money in the business if it were not for the ruinous competition of the Euro- pean painters, especially the dead ones. These latter, from Rem- brandt and Velasquez down to Corot and Millet, now that they are exempt from worldly cares, seem to have nothing to do but flood the market with their plausible, high-priced canvases. $-——__—— THE MAYOR’S LOVING-CUP TOAST.
