the exhibition, entitled A Picnic—A scene with many
figures in strong sunlight handled with an ease that
speaks of unusual artistic power. The painter’s other
canvas, New England, is one of his finest works ;
it was reproduced as our frontispiece last month.
A flower group by Mr. Philip Connard perhaps
better represented that artist than his At Castleacre,
in which the effect was marred by its resemblance
to that of a. snap-shot made in strong sunlight;
thus fitting badly with the extreme deliberation
over decorative composition and drawing in it.
Pictures which should be mentioned are Sunrise on
the Fletschhorn, reproduced herewith, an instance of
Mr. C. M. Gere’s delicate impressionism ; The Ash
Tree, by Mr. Fairlie Harmar; Night-Piece, by Mr.
David Muirhead ; Phantasy, by Mr. Henry Lamb;
The Quay, by Mr. W. W. Russell ; The Gendarme
and the Peasants, by Mr. Sidney Lee ; Morthoe, by
Mr. Maxwell Armfield; A North-west Wind, by
Mr. F. H. S. Shepherd; The Thrashing Machine,
by Miss Lily Blatherwick; Woodingdean, by Mr.
William Nicholson; The Port of Little London, by
Mr. David Muirhead ; and The Blue Precipice, by
Mr. C. J. Holmes. In the water-colour room Mr.
Alfred Rich, whose Ely Cathedral we are reproduc-
ing, Mr. Wilson Steer with his Trees by the Severn,
and Mr. I). S. MacColl with From Brasenose Quad
were the most interesting exhibitors this season.
The Goupil Gallery summer exhibition contains
some notable instances of still-life painting by
Mr. William Nicholson, Mr. George Clausen, Mr.
W. B. E. Ranken, Ribot and M. Volion. Other
works of interest are A Gala Day in Naples, by
Mr. Frank Brangwyn ; By the Window, by Mr.
William Orpen ; The Fallen Tree, by the Canadian
painter Mr. Homer Watson; Souvenir of Syke, by
Mr. G. W. Lambert; Two Children under an
Olive Tree, by Mr. Augustus E. John ; Yachts in
Salcombe Bay, by Mr. A. Ludovici; and pictures by
Conder, Matthew Maris, Ziem, and others. At the
same galleries Mr. Archibald Browne, of Toronto,
