MISS MARGARET BY E. A. WALTON, A.R.S.A.
MACFARLANE
Morning on the Clyde (bronze medal, Salon,
1901); Mr. A. B. Docharty a view of Winter in
Glenfinlas, with a ruddy gleam of sunlight illu-
minating the trees ; and Mr. Morris Henderson
A Meadoit) Stream, a work of great refinement,
possessing atmospheric qualities of a high order.
Mr. Henry Morley shows a brilliant, glowing
and vigorous Autumn Landscape; Mr. D. Y.
Cameron a golden sunset over a dim ravine;
and Mr. A. K. Brown a delicate and dainty
Solway Side. There are, of course, others, but
space forbids any extended allusion to the con-
tributions of Messrs. Corsan Morton, Reid
Murray, David Martin, Archibald Kay, Well-
wood Rattray, Whitelaw Hamilton, Tom Hunt,
George Houston, or the late Wm. Mouncey,
though the work of Mr. Alexander Roche
demands a brief allusion.
This artist is seen at his best in the beautiful
and important canvas he entitles The Sailing of
the Boat, a view of a grey early morning at the
208
little East coast harbour of St. Monans, with a
fishing-smack just leaving the old stone p>er-
T he effect of the ruddy sail silhouetted against
the pearly and luminous clouds is exquisitely fe^
and perfectly rendered, and the subtly varied
tones of the grey water, grey sky, and grey
stone, are treated in a manner altogfcthe
masterly. Skill of a high order is also displayed
by Mr. David Gauld in his picture of Calves-
Mr. Gauld’s technique is very remarkable (in
fact, this painter, in such pictures as the one
illustrated, and Mr. Stuart Park in his flowers,
are notable even among Glasgow artists as
showing what sheer dexterous brushwork lS
capable of), his colour is clear and fine, bis
textures skilfully suggested, and his animals
beautifully placed on the canvas. As usual at
ihe Institute, the ladies are well seen, Miss
Perman’s roses, Mrs. Laing’s figure studies.
Miss McNicol’s portraits, and Miss McGeehans
scriptural picture, are each in their way
noteworthy productions, and in water-colours
