^NACH DEM REGEN" BY VICTOR STRETTI

j&y ^ 7?<7^ represented by ten
nude female figures in various attitudes, listening
to the Rose reiating her woes. There is much to
remind one of Japanese art in this work. His
Zfyz'yaz'z' Fz*zzZr is at the same time dainty and decor-
ative. A bright touch of colour is given by the
deep pink rhododendron. Ludwig Ferdinand
Graf, in his Zrzyz'yaz'z' <?/* a ZaZr, again offered
something new and daring. He is continuaHy
seeking new effects, and his work is always interest-
ing. Fraulein Irma Dutczynska's Az'j/gyy is a
fine picture, full of thought and feeling, and shows
great advance on the young artist's previous
exhibits. Hans Ranzoni's ^4/z<?y A? Z^yy is
another bit of the delightful old historical city
which the artist loves to paint. The moon is

sending her silvery beams
over the old courtyard,
and the trees are illu-
mined by them and stand
out from their shadows.
Alexander D. Goltz was
very successful in his
as also were
Eduard Amesederand Adolf
Luntz (Karlsruhe) in their
landscapes. Victor Stretti
in IVizzZ z%z7/z Zy^gzz has
depicted a well-known
street in Prague, where the
old buildings have made
place for the new. The
rain has left behind it a
cold, damp mist, which is
only relieved by the
lamplights; it is a very
realistic picture, and
causes a longing for the
Preside. Rudolf Junk
had a series of such
studies, reminding one of
mist, drizzle, and rain,
and seems in his element
in such motives. Josza
Uprka in Zz'y Zyyy-
,t<r/%ayz'/z'zr/%g7z presented a
number of held labourers,
men and women, in
their picturesque Slovac
costumes. The bright
colour of the costumes, of
which red is the prevailing
tone, is relieved by the
bush-covered hills in the
distance. Antonin Hudecek in his land-
scapes Azzzwzyy, ^4 FzY/a^y, etc., gave a delight-
ful display of colour, chiefly green toned by
the blue of the heavens. Victor Beranek's
.Vaz/%/$/i37z^ was a nocturne in white, very
finely conceived, and a picture not easily
forgotten. Emanuel Vidovic (Spalato) depicted
the hours of longing. The evening red, the
shepherd's delight, is playing over the waters of
the harbour and relieving the objects in the
w^ater, a stillness is over all, a longing for
that which lies behind. A very young artist,
Rudolf Kriser, who exhibited for the first time,
showed much decorative talent and fantasy
of composition in Zz'y ZyazzA? Z/'yrz'z'zz. The
