and colouring. Pochwalski is always at his
best in his portraits of men; those here shown
were of fine quality. Prof. Angeli sent a charming
portrait of a little girl. AV. V. Krausz’s exhibits
occupied a small room to themselves ; seen en
masse one could not help being struck by the
versatility of this artist and the general good quality
of his work. His Study of a Girl's Head counts
to the very best he has ever done.
There were some notable landscapes. Thomas
Leitner’s dreamy, imaginative Birch Trees in the
Vienna Wolds, tenderly and faithfully treated, showed
his great gifts as a colourist and portrayer of subtle
atmospheric effects; Oswald Grill’s landscape with
two girls in the foreground was both refined and
harmonious; and Therese Schachner was par-
ticularly happy in her rendering of spirited and
vigorously handled landscapes. Other landscapists
who showed praiseworthy work are Karl Kaiser
Herbst, Prof. Darnaut, Alfred Zoff, Tina Blau,
E. Kasparides, Friedrich Bech, and L. B. Eich-
horn, who showed but one work, a little gem.
guests were Oskar Glatz, Karl von Ferenczy,
Hans Autengruber, Richard Kaiser, Walter
Schnackenberg (whose depiction of a scene at the
guillotine, though gruesome in subject, was cleverly
handled), the Spanish artist, Jose Ramon Zaragoza
(who sent an interesting study of Breton types),
and the Swiss artist, Ferdinand Hodler. The last
named, who has hitherto exhibited at the Secession,
contributed a large work, Mowers, painted with a
decisive touch and significant for the treatment of
the light effects. A. S. L.
BARCELONA.—The exhibition which the
young artist Nestor de la Torre held in
the Pares Salon during the latter part of
December attracted a large and distin-
guished assemblage, for it may be said without the
slightest fear of exaggeration that his works have
for some time past been the principal theme of talk
in places where artists and art-lovers foregather.
The public of Barcelona had already had an oppor-
tunity of gauging the powers of this artist in the fine
ceiling decorations painted by him for the large
Among other works which
should be mentioned are
Horatio Gaigher’s Interior,
very harmonious in effect;
some bits of old cities and
villages by Gustav Bohm,
notably Old Houses in Bos-
kowitz, in which he has re-
corded the wonderful colour
effects and atmosphere of
this charming old Moravian
village; Wilhelm Leger’s in-
teriors and garden pictures;
Jehuda Epstein’s studies of
old barock architecture,
showing qualities eminently
deserving of respect, and
Otto Herschel’s charming
colour notes designated by
such terms as “ Interiors,”
“ Music,” &c.
A pleasant tone was given
to the exhibition by several

Emile Blanche, who was a
welcome guest, this being
the first time he has ex-
hibited in Vienna. Other
