These are oils, pastels, sanguines and ivory miniatures. The exhibition con- tains thirty-four examples of Miss Sweeny's art. Her portraits in oil are altogether |concerned with externals. The like- nesses are doubtless excellent, but the work is almost photographic in its realism. The landscape background Jin the portrait of Mrs. Theodore L. | Bailey shows a sinuous stream that | winds perspectively into the distance, but this is unfortunately tinged with artificiality, The pose of the sitter is | trifle stiff, but her gown is in charming blue that has been well | handled.
