“swans among the ice” (oil)
( Kiinstlerhaus, Vienna) by fritz pontini
beginning of his career he
has shown that his ideals are
high and that he is a keen
self-critic. Friedrich Beck
merits praise for his snow
scenes. Eduard Zetsche
contributes some charming
pictures, delicately painted
scenes from Lower Austria.
Antonin Hudecek, in his
Autumn, showing the
autumn tints in their rich
brown-reds, forms a strong
contrast to a second work
by the same artist entitled
Summer, where a glow of
heat suffuses the whole
picture. Othmar Ruzicka,
Adolf Schwarz, Rudolf
Konopa, Alfred Zoff, and
Karl Ludwig Prinz all
other, fields ripe with
corn,luscious green carpets
separated^one from another
by silver poplars and
beeches. Kasparides, in his
A Warm October Day, has
pictured another part of the
same forest region. There
is a fine sentiment present,
a broadness of vision and
wise restraint in the hand-
ling of the brush. One
feels the warmth of this
October day; it permeates
the atmosphere. A May
Day represents the artist
in another mood, but both
works show that love of
form which is so strong a
characteristic in the pictures
of this artist. Ferdinand
Brunner has a preference
for the long line in nature,
the long low houses created
by men. He sends only one
work, On the Hill, poetic
in sentiment, thoughtful and
restrained in treatment.
Gustav Bohm’s Platz in
Teltsch furnished another
proof of his refined artistic
nature. Though but at the
