Studio-Talk
We have pleasure in
reproducing two excellent
charcoal studies by Mr.
G. Forrester Scott, whose
clever work is already
familiar to readers of The
Studio. The study of
trees, lightly drawn with
freedom and distinction,
is well observed through-
out, giving what may be
called the trees’, life -
struggle against the winds
and storms.
The silver-work designed
by Miss Kate Harris, and
executed by W. Hutton &
Sons, is gracefully con-
ceived and executed. The
sporting cup is particularly
good; it seems to have been

cups and trophies which appeared a few
months ago in The Studio.
The two designs in coloured reliet
by Mr. James R. Cooper draw attention
once more to a form of decorative
treatment concerning which Mr. Robert
Anning Bell gave some useful informa-
tion in a recent number of The Studio.
Mr. Cooper’s fan-shaped panel, repre-
senting A/. George, with Lancashire and
Yorkshire roses, forms part of an over-
mantel in the entrance hall of a house
near Manchester. It is enclosed by
wood mouldings, and was executed for
Mr. T. Taylor, the architect who built
the house. The two figures in the other
panel are emblematic of Morning and
Evening. This coloured relief is painted
with wax colours; here and there it is
gilded and glazed with transparent
tones. It surmounts a tiled and copper
fireplace at Ledsham Hall, Cheshire.
Mr. Alfred de Sauty’s bookbindings
are less familiar to the reading public
than they deseive to be. Thorough

they are free and light in design, and
their colour is attractive. The volume
of Keats has pleasant contrasts of
