MONTMARTRE—AN ETCHING BY ANNE GOLDTHWAITE
posed and painted birds of prey and others,
which should certainly be acquired by some col-
lector who can appreciate the opportunity.
An interesting exhibition of paintings by J. H.
Carlsen, recently made in the Berkshire Hills
and the Green Mountains of Vermont, is being
shown at the Palette and Chisel Club at 59 East
Van Buren Street, Chicago, until November 6.
Very delightful in colour and composition is
his canvas entitled Woodland Bowers.
A fine exhibition of jewelry and silverware, by
the Elverhoj Colony of Artists and Craftsmen of
Milton-on-the-Hudson, was formally opened on
Saturday, October 2, at the exhibition rooms of
the National Society of Craftsmen, 119 East
19th Street, N. Y., and remained open until
October 16.
Mr. Willard D. Straight is to be congratulated
upon the possession of four Zuloagas, which are
to be panel decorations in his town residence,
and have been on view at the Kraushaar Gal-
leries, 260 Fifth Avenue, prior to removal. The
two landscapes are fine in colour and rhythmic
composition, but hardly comparable with the
splendid types exemplified by the Gypsy Girl and
El Corcito, which are too well known to require
any remark. A full page illustration of the
former is on p. xxxiii.
The homing ground of the somewhat extreme
artists at “291” has been extended to 500 Fifth
Avenue where Picabia, Picasso and Braque may
be seen and wondered at, along with primitive
African sculpture.
The paintings at the Montross Galleries offer
many attractions to lovers of art no matter what
their taste, be it for the schools or the latest
manifestations of the moderns; and in each the
field is represented by competent and, in some
instances, adequately good work. In fact, Of
and Benton are genuine discoveries. Of the
former there are two landscapes and a pastel
still-life whose merits overshadow all the other
realistic work present. One of them comes very
near being the finest modern landscape done by
an American. These oils show unmistakable
signs of Renoir’s influence in their brushing, but
they approach nearer the underlying motive of
Cezanne than those other pictures in which the
