THE INTERNATIONAL STUDIO
July, 1913
Famous Paintings
of the
Master Impressionists
at the
Luxembourg Museum
The May and June, 1913, issues of the FINE
ARTS JOURNAL will contain the illustrated
articles by
Charles Louis Borgmeyer
on the “Art of the Master Impressionists,” to
be seen at the Luxembourg Museum.
Every visitor abroad next summer should take
these issues with them.
For those who are going to Paris we would
suggest taking both this and the bound volume
of the “Luxembourg and Its Treasures”—by
the same author.
To be led through the Luxembourg, as Mr.
Borgmeyer leads his readers, is to make one a
life-long friend of that Gallery.

THE VISITATION
Babe in a basket, with Joseph and Mary
kneeling in supplication; shepherds, ox and
ass give the necessary setting. The right
wing represents the Flight, while the left is
the Adoration of the Kings. The outsides
of the wings, painted in grisaille, form the
subjects of our illustrations, and are respec-
tively the Annunciation and the Visita-
tion, with late Gothic doorways in each
case as settings. Very little is known of
this clever primitive, beyond the fact that
he was associated with Gerard David
and worked in Bruges. Like his master
before him Isenbrant followed in the
reverential footsteps of Hubert van Eyck.
HE SAN FRANCISCO BIENNIAL
At the San Francisco Biennial, in a
recent bulletin, it was reported of Idaho
that “such art enthusiasm has never been
witnessed before.” The Art Study Club,
of Pocatello, so ably presided over by Dr.
Minnie Howard, commenced their gallery
by purchasing as a nucleus The World
Beyond, by Albert H. Ullrich, a pupil of
Gari Melchers. The committee wanted a
landscape by Irvine, entitled Indian Sum-
mer Days, but it was decided to leave the
choice to the vox populi, and after a tour
with the Idaho Exhibition, embracing
twenty-three towns, no doubt remained
that The World Beyond was art with a
message and was the picture most desired.
To see a real art collection find its way for
the first time into a State remote from art
collections, is of special interest, and full
of hope. The General Federation of
Women’s Clubs deserve great praise for
their enterprise.
