Awards in " The Studio " Prize Competitions

the brocades and hangings of the Middle Ages,
as shown in illuminated MSS., would have aided
the designers in realising the importance and
value of the competition. Small flowers semi-
naturalistically treated, nondescript patterns without
proportion and balance of form, are ill adapted
for such work. Among our modern illustrators,
Mr. Aubrey Beardsley and Mr. R. Anning Bell
have been the most successful in seizing, without
slavish copy of ancient work, the spirit which
underlaid it. The subject is a fine one, much
neglected, it is to be feared, in our Art schools,
but one which would well repay greater attention
on the part of Art students.
The First Prize (One guinea) is awarded to
Stick-in-the-Mud (Edith M. Davey, care of A.
Webster, Lindum Road, Lincoln).
The Second Prize (Haif a guinea) to Fisher
(Rosa J. English, Blenheim House, Alcester Road,
King's Heath, Birmingham).
Honourable mention is given to the following :—
Banshee (Beatrice A. Waldram, 6 The Parade,
Rymmes Park, Edmonton); Clock (F. E. Paddison,
Ingleby, Lincoln); Harebell (Mabel Brindley,
Parkstone, Dorset); Pup (Julia Birt, 28 rue de
Madrid, Paris); Tulip (Edith Durie, 1 Queen's
Ferry Gardens, Edinburgh) ; Wa Pa Ba (Beatrice
N. Graham, 35 Prince's Gate, S.W.) ; and Ytroet
(A. T. Griffiths, Bank View, Link Top, Malvern).
Photographs from Nature. Groups of
Farmy ard Poultry. (D IX.)
Some clever snap-shots have been forwarded in
this competition. The competitors are rather
fewer than usual, but doubtless the difficulty of
the subject deterred many from attempting it.
Excellent as some of the photographs are in
themselves, the best are, unfortunately, scarcely of
a character to make good process blocks, and we
have refrained therefore from illustrating them.
We award the Prizes, however, as follows :—
The First Prize (One guinea) is awarded to
Le Dindon (B. Lintott, Horsham).
The Second Prize (Half a guinea) to Peachick
(Rev. G. W. Peacocke, Carnmoney, Belfast).
Honourable mention is given to the following :—■
Clough (Annie J. Hoyles, 142 Upperthorpe,
Sheffield) ; Tallie (W. Northwood, Stourbridge);
Honestas (F. Massey, Penrhyn, Cornwall); and
Anchora (Ellen M. Smithes, Eveley, Liphook,
Hants).
