STOCKHOLM.—The Elmqvist bronzes,
here illustrated, emanate from the Elm-
qvistska Gjutningsmetoden, Stockholm,
and being the outcome of a special
process, have a double claim to attention.
Through their special method the works are
able to cast with the utmost fineness in all
details, leaving a particularly pleasing surface and
finish, which requires no subsequent handling, in

“ANCIENT CRIMEA
the well-known and always masterly architectural
sketches by S. Noakovski, a new artist made his
appearance in the person of Masiutine. In him we
made the acquaintance of a very clever draughts-
man, who at the same time is not deficient in

ground glaze of some porcelain works.
Although Elmqvistska Gjutningsmetoden cast

vases are manifold, and on the whole decorative
and original. G. B.

stand the group called The Outlaw, it
should be remembered that the talented
sculptor, M. Einar Jonsson, is an Ice-
lander, and a true Icelander, imbued with many
weird fancies from the old Saga island, though
modern and at times almost revolutionary in his
artistic conception. According to an old tradition,

of the country, and sometimes they carried off
women, who had to share their lonely life amongst
