THE FORTUNE-TELLER
Hahlo & Co., and aroused considerable interest.
The simplicity and at the same time boldness of
his technique are surprising. His portraits and
studies from the nude are very lifelike and striking
in pose. An especially pleasing print is The
Waltz, full of grace and action.
An interesting collection of etchings by Sir
Seymour Haden were on view at the galleries of
Charles H. Graff during December. Interest in
the work of Haden, Brangwyn, Fitton and other
great masters of the needle has been very keen this
season and shows no signs of flagging.
A special exhibition of paintings by Lawrence
Mazzanovich was held last month at the Macbeth
Galleries. Four short years ago this artist was to
all intents and purposes unknown, but his work
at the Paris salon caused quite a stir and caused
Mr. C. H. Meltzer to break forth into prophecy.
Certain it is that since then this young New
Yorker has progressed along the path of fame in
meteoric fashion. His work is impressionistic and
honestly so; it is a loving
interpretation of nature as
Wordsworth would have
portrayed it had he been
an artist, and the moods he
selects are the calmful ones
seen at early dawn or ap-
proaching dusk, autumn
hues being prevalent among
the canvases on view.
The famous firm of Braun
et Cie, acceding to the re-
quest of many of their clients,
have decided to hold regular
exhibitions, commencing
now at their galleries, 13 W.
46th St. They have hitherto
been deterred from this en-
terprise from the fact that
so many exhibitions are held
annually in New York, and
they were unwilling to enter
the lists unless convinced
that they were in a position
to give a really first-class
display, worthy of their
great position as art pub-
lishers. They have now suc-
ceeded in getting together a
collection of some eighty
color etchings by Anselmo
by Ferdinand bol Bucci, George Ritleng and all
the members of the British
Society of Graver Printers in Color. Following upon
this exhibition, which will be on view the first half
of this month, there will be a display of pictures
suitable for educational purposes, the idea being
to attempt to guide teachers, helping them to
know what pictures merit wall space in American
class rooms. This excellent idea goes to the very
root of a necessary reform. A third exhibition will
be the miniature paintings of Matthias Sandor.
In addition to exhibitions a scheme of lectures
has been arranged, and each Sunday of this month
will provide the opportunity of hearing Professor
Pierre de Bacourt lecture on French Pastellists,
Rubens and the Painters of the Barbizon School.
Art lectures by Dr. Kriehn, of Columbia Univer-
sity, will also be heard on dates under arrangement.
To quote The Lotus Leaf: “M. Braun has been the
Aldus and the Henricus Stephanus of the great
classics of drawing and painting.” We wish them
success in their new departure and feel sure that
all art lovers here will have cause to rejoice.
