N THE GALLERIES
The month of December has kept devo-
tees of art busy inspecting numerous exhibi-
tions and private displays, although the art
season proper cannot be said to commence before
the New Year. Among the events of real import-
ance must be chronicled first and foremost the
de Ridder Exhibition at the Kleinberger Galleries,
in which eightv-three precious canvases, Dutch
and Flemish seventeenth century, have for the first
time become accessible to the public gaze.
A good curtain raiser of social and artistic
importance has been the Artur Halmi display of
fair women and debutantes at Knoedler’s Galler-
ies. This exhibition has been the rendezvous of
everybody who is anybody. This well-known por-
traitist poses his sitters with harmony and distinc-
tion and they sacrifice none of their beauty at his
hands. The clou of the collection is a portrait of
the artist’s daughter.
The Durand Ruel Galleries, in their new quar-
ters at 12 East 57th Street, held a loan exhibition
of the work of Edouard Manet, including Le
Philosophy Le Fumeur and En Bateau.
Mr. Carton Moorepark has just painted a very
satisfactory portrait of Professor Osborn, presi-
dent of the American Museum of Natural History.

Of great interest is his triptych of Mr. and Mrs-
Daniel E. Moran at Mendham, N. J., which we
reproduce. It is a novel and interesting way of
grouping and the different units decoratively
