LODGE AT "NORNEY," SHACKLEFORD

suggestive of Byzantine severity, is yet very real,
very modern and very devotional in thought. It
shows the kneeling form of a young woman, her
hands clasped at her throat, her head inclined, her
countenance fervid with intensity. For frank,
honest portraiture, there can be no more excellent
specimen than the bust of the sculptor Dillens, by
Jules Lagae, and for a sweet alluring lyric no more
delightful subject could be
given than the r/
by the same artist.
This concerted effort
on the part of individual
artists to follow to a con-
clusion the art questions
of the day is bound to
place Belgium in a con-
spicuous position among
her sister nations in the
artistic field. And, if the
line of progress should lie
in the direction of the sin-
cerity that characterised
the early Flemish school,
thesupporters of the present
movement, who have con-
sistently proved themselves
both strenuous and devoted
m the cause of art, might
well feel that they had met
with gratifying results.

WE give this month illus-
trations of the entrance
front, the garden front, and
a side view of ./W7wy,
SHar/I/d/z'T'if, near Godaim-
ing, a house designed by
Mr. C. F. A. Voysey for
the Rev. Canon Grane.
The photographs from
which the reproductions
were made were taken
before the house was en-
tirely completed. It is now
covered with creepers, and
the gardens and grounds,
which extend for about
twenty acres, are elaborately
laid out and beautifully wooded. The materials
employed for the house are brick and cement
rough-cast, with Westmorland green slate for the
roof and oak joinery inside. The casements are
in iron, and Monks Park stone has been used for
the window dressings and Portland stone for the
porch, chimney caps, and all exposed places. An
illustration is also given of the entrance lodge.
