Studio: international art (15.1899)

Awards in " The Studio" Prize Competitions

G. A. Henty. The former contains some spirited
and clever illustrations by W. Rainey, R.I., and the
latter is embellished with drawings by Ralph Pea-
cock, which are well conceived and reproduced.
The volumes are bound in attractively designed
covers.

We have received from Mr. Augustin Rischgitz,
of Linden Gardens, London, a selection of photo-
graphs of the sketches by Constable, preserved
in the South Kensington and British Museums.
The photographs are excellent transcripts of the
original drawings, and exhibit with fidelity the
facile power of this great painter in the various
mediums he affected.

Our readers, especially those who take part in
the competitions, will be interested to learn that a
number of the designs which were submitted in
the Competition B XII. " Christmas Cards," were
purchased by Mr. Mortimer, of Halifax, and that
he has recently reproduced them for sale. The
reproductions are excellent and the series forms
one of the most attractive we have seen this
season.
