village life, religious processions, and tortuous
mountain paths, and Filipkiewicz, who favours the
interiors of simple homes, were both well repre-
sented, as were also Jakob Glasner, Stanislaw
Kamocki, who, besides a highly pleasing drawing
of a village church in snow, contributed several
other drawings of merit. J. Rembowski showed
some excellent engravings on copper ; Jan Rubczak
fine aquatints, S. Noakowski some drawings of old
churches and a number of good sepia drawings
of the ancient castle of Wawal.
Witold Wojtkiewicz sent some excellent chalk
drawings, strong in line and fine in tone, and
varied as to subject; and P. Krasnodebski a number
of beautiful coloured woodcuts. K. Sichulski
A. Neumann, W. Weiss, F. Ruszczyc, and Marko-
wicz were all creditably represented, the last men-
tioned by some studies of Jewish life, in which he
shows deep insight into the peculiarities of the
race. There was little sculpture shown, but that
little was good in quality, the contributors being
Szczepkowski, Ostrowski, Glicenstein, and Hoch-
mann. A. S. L.
KONIGSBERG, PRUSSIA.—The name
of Otto Heichert, already widely known
in Germany, is one that is beginning to
be heard of beyond its borders. The
Antwerp Museum contains three paintings by
German masters ; one of them is Heichert's pro-
foundly impressive death-bed scene, Todesstundc.
From his early days the mind of this highly
sensitive artist has been imbued with convictions
of a serious and grave nature; there is in him
some of that loftiness and piety which belonged to
a Durer, a Holbein, or a Cranach. To con-
template with reverence and childlike trustful-
ness the author and source of all being, i.e., God,
this is the central point of Otto Heichert's
philosophy of life. The monk lost in deep
reflection—the monk who with his own hand
guides the plough and the harrow,—and those
fervent women preachers of the Salvation Army
