and earnest art movement, which is doubtless
destined to produce most excellent results.
A word must in justice be devoted to the im-
portant collection of MSS. shown at the " Art
Nouveau," and forming a real attraction to the
public. To give an idea of the interest centred in
this exhibit, it suffices to mention the names of a
few of the more famous or best known authors
represented here—Theodore de Banville, J. Barbey
d'Aurevilly, Honore de Balzac, Paul Bourget,
Aurelien Scholl, Anatole France, A. De Musset,
Baudelaire, Maurice Barres, Frangois Coppee, the
brothers de Goncourt, Emile Zola, Alexandre
Dumas, Alphonse Daudet, Leconte de Lisle,
Victor Hugo, Lamartine, Paul Hervieu, Ruskin,
Nietzche, Strindberg, and Sudermann.
M. Andre Marty has just published, in continu-
ation of his series of "School Pictures/' a remark-
able lithograph in colours, called Alsace, the work
of M. Etienne Moreau-Nelaton, whose album of
original lithographs, Les Grands Saints des Petits
Enfants, is well-known as a production of great
charm and high imagination. This process of
lithography, now in such rapid course of revival, is
handled by M. Moreau-Nelaton with the utmost
originality and sureness of touch.
M. A. Lunois' latest lithograph in colours, re-
produced here, is shown at Sagot's. La Raquette
is a sunny little work, of powerful and striking
effect. I know nothing by this artist quite so good
as this lithograph. Its freedom of design and colour
is very effective, with the warm light of the summer
sun upon the verdure of grass and tree, and the
mauve and yellow tints in the dresses of the two
girls.
One of the most successful posters recently
issued is that composed by M. Verneuil for Le
Monde Moderne, and illustrated here.
An exhibition of Renoir's work at Durand-Ruel's,

first time in public—are deserving of detailed
notice. One would have plenty to say about both
