self and a portrait of a gentleman. Laszlo’s work,
needless to say, was admirable. Hedwig von
Friedlander, David Kohn, Rudolf von Mehoffer,
N. Schattenstein, L. Koch, and O. Herochel all con-
tributed good work. Among the ladies, Therese
Schneegans, Stefanie Glax, and Edith V. Czizek-
Stengel must be mentioned, for each contributed
good examples of their art. There were also a
number of etchings and coloured drawings, those by
Josef Jungwirth deserving particular notice. He
is very happy in his choice of subjects and in
his methods, especially
when depicting figures in
movement. Altogether the
exhibition was a good one,
and that it was appre-
ciated is proved by the
fact that nearly everything
was sold. A. S. L.
luxurious comfort has been
aimed at and those where
the simple national style of
Hungary has been followed,
the same fundamental prin-
ciple has been kept in view
by the designer, namely,
that the nature of the
material employed should
determine its treatment, and
that form and decoration
should be dictated by the
constructive possibilities of
the material. Then, again,
there has been considered
the purpose for which the
object is intended. In the
case of a garden room, for
instance, account has to be
taken of altogether different
climatic conditions to those
which a drawing-room or dining-room are subject to,
and the rustic character of the environment may and
should operate as a factor. In the garden room
illustrated the material is treated in the simplest
possible way, but with due regard to that rhyth-
mical beauty which is characteristic of Hungarian
peasant art. To the same order belong the school-
room, the dining-room in Hungarian style, and the
children’s nursery.
The same principles have been observed, though
