Under the title of “ Les Enlaidissements de
Paris,” a series of articles by M. Robert de Souza
is appearing in “ L’lllustration,” the author prose-
cuting a vigorous campaign therein against the
transformations and deformations which, thanks to
the advance of modern industrialism, the capital
is undergoing. M. de Souza deserves cordial
support, for if we do not take care, Paris will soon
be robbed of nearly all its beauty, its charm, and
its special character. M. de Souza is a poet, a
lover of beauty; and all who think as he thinks
should combine with him in his happily inspired
effort to make Paris the exquisite city it was in
days gone by.

at Hessele’s, Mme.

Ren^e Davids showed
a series of delightful
drawings, full of charm
and character. The
second exhibition of
the “ Societe Nouvelle
de Peintres et de
Sculpteurs ” at Georges
Petit’s was followed by
the annual display of
the Pastellists; and in
the same galleries was
to be seen an exhibi-
tion of “medianomic ”
drawings by M. Fer-
nand Desmoulin, plate

strangely captivating
in style; also a display

of M. Victor Vignon’s luminous landscapes.
Moreover, at Tooth’s, Gaston La Touche showed
a series of twenty-six highly original water-colours
(at present on View in a special room at the Salon
of the Societe Nationale des Beaux-Arts), and the
famous engraver, Felix Bracquemond, a collection
of twenty-nine original etchings. A most interest-
ing exhibition was given at Durand-Ruel’s by
MM. Albert Andre, G. d’Espagnat, G. Daniel-
Monfreid, E. Durenne, L. Paviot, H. Roussel-
Masure, and U. Valtat; and in the Galerie des
Artistes Modernes the “ Demi-Douzaine ” held
their annual display, the works shown including
delightful examples by MM. Ferdinand Luigini,
Charles Huard, Camille Bourget, Pierre Bracque-
mond, and others.

It behoves the true artist
out for the means whereby

ever to be on the look-
the domain of art may
be enlarged, ever to
seek “fresh worlds to
conquer.” Such is the
opinion of M. Georges
de Feure, who, at the
Salon of the Beaux-
Arts, is now displaying
in a showcase of gilded
wood—a real work of
art, of his own design-
ing—a collection of
decorated porcelain of
the utmost interest
technically and other-
wise. Produced by
one of the best firms
in Limoges — Gerard,
Dufraissex & Cie. —
