Awards in "The Studio" Prise Competitions

Peter's, Canterbury) : the arrangement of the legs 14 Glen View, Clover Hill, Halifax) : ornate, yet
is novel, but hardly commendable, as it would full of good points,
render duet-playing impossible. Parsifal (H. C.

Graff, Bergamer, Chatfield Road, Croydon) : a B- m- A River Scene at Sunset, drawn
design with much that is pleasing. Phil (J. H. on Allonge Paper.

Phillips, Caerphilly); illustrated. Repos (E. Nichol- So large a number of drawings were sent in for
son, 7 Tavistock Place, W.C.): not very novel, but this competition that it would have been a difficult

task for the judges to award
the prizes, had not the average
level proved to be somewhat
commonplace. The finish, as
a rule, was carried too far to
be effective in this particular
medium. The foregrounds were
nearly always weak, sometimes
in actual drawing, more fre-
•s fe:;j'iD£'1 quently in their employment of
jr&KK]t}?f$ the materials.

Honourable mention is given
to the following:—Allan Gray
(J. D. Roberton, 9 Ure Place,
Glasgow): good treatment and
pleasant drawing. Arnal (Miss
L. E. Jones, 80 Wimbledon Hill,
S.W.): a very decorative com-
position which deserved repro-
ducing had space permitted.
Blackbird (Miss E. Aird, 48
Pelham Street, South Kensing-
ton) : the effect of the drawing
is admirable, but in reproduc-
tion the loss of the Chinese
white would be felt. Brittany
(Miss M. F. Ravenhill Dela-
ford, Iver, Bucks): an excellent
drawing. Dor (C. W. Crosby,
Bromehurst, Dorking, Surrey) :
would come out rather flat, but
is a very good sketch. Dura
(I. S. Williams, 3 Palliser Road,
West Kensington): though river
river scene, first prize, " sepia " and sunset are to seek, it has

fine quality. Endeavour (F. H.
with very harmonious proportions and simplicity Edminson, Glendale, Sale) : eleven subjects, all
of detail that deserve special mention. Toby (B. with some merit. Holiday Work (Miss M. H.
Schwabe, 78 Cross Street, Manchester) ; illustrated. Woolhouse, Bolebridge Street, Tamworth): good,
Tenfelsdrockh (Harry Jeffries, 45 Maitland Park would reproduce well. Holly (Miss E. Jacob,
Road, Haverstock Hill): too monumental in its Crane Lodge, Salisbury): shows appreciation of
scale, yet in its way good. Up to date (Andrew the material. Lyjiette (Miss I. Brittain, n High-
Russell, 14 Amberley Street, Liverpool) : the key- field, Scarborough): rather hard, but pleasant,
board projects unduly, but the detail underneath Metier (Second Prize) sends also a second
is charming in itself. Wainscot (R. Banks Martin, drawing of high merit. Rose of Youth and Udi
Clewer House, Aylesham Road, North Walsham) : (J. Dawson, 35 Reginald Terrace, Leeds) : rather
too elaborate, and s>hows want of harmony in the heavy, but good. Rue (E. T. Bourne, 41 Priory

Claremont Drive, Timperley) ; illustrated: excel- S. Tel (Miss E. D'Avigdor, 35 Lancaster Gate,
