is always pleasing, and among other things a
high lamp for petroleum is worthy of special
praise. Baroness Myrbach has two stone jars,
one in red and the other in grey and yellow,
while a silver-mounted glass dish is a delight-
ful piece of work. Marietta Peyfurss, with a
leather book-cover and a leather blotter, has turned
to something fresh. Her designs are good,
well conceived, and well executed. Adele von
Stark also shows good work in two vases enamelled
on copper. Ellis Halbis has a fine piece ot
embroidery (bag for opera
glass) designed by J. Clar-
mann. In jewellery, Kolo
Moser shows a brooch of
dainty design, and Otto
Prutschner, who has lately
been awarded a travelling
scholarship by the Imperial
Arts and Crafis Schools,
has some ornaments,
brooches, necklet, sleeve-
links and earrings which are
quite new in design. He
has made use of small
pearl shells with very good
effect.
It would not be right to
leave the exhibition with-
out mentioning the gum
photographs by Messrs.
Henneberg, Watzek and
Spitzer, of Vienna, and Mr. Heinrich Kuhn, of
Innsbruck. Each artist possesses an individuality.
Henneberg excels in landscapes, Watzek in soft
tones, Spitzer in figures, and Kuhn in lights.
Henneberg shows us a landscape Italian Spring;
a graceful motive full of fragrance and beauty:
his Landscape, with its massive trees, is full of
powerful effect, while his herd of sheep is as full
of life as his Am Hof Vienna. Kuhn’s Evening
Sun is a poem. The sun is sending his
golden shimmer through the dark trees and over
