his artistic training at the Bristol Municipal School
of Art. In 1908 he won the British Institution
Scholarship of /100 for etching and then came to
London to work under Sir Frank Short at the
Royal College of Art, and at the Goldsmith’s
College under Mr. Lee Hankey. He has also
worked at St. Martin’s School of Art. Mr.
Anderson has exhibited at the Royal Academy
and the chief provincial galleries, and some of his
work has lately been acquired by the Bradford Art
Gallery for its permanent collection. He was
elected Associate of the Royal Society of Painter-
Etchers last year. Mr. Anderson has been
sketching recently in France, and some of the
results of his work will probably be seen at the
next Painter-Etchers’ exhibition.
By the death of Mr. James Aumonier, R.I., in
his eightieth year, landscape art in England is
much impoverished. His craftsmanship did not
desert him even in his last canvases, nor did that
vein of poetry which gave his work distinction.
