is a complete success, very careful in design, and
charming in its colouring of pale green and warm
yellow. This poster, which has been printed with
the utmost care by M. Goffart, is reproduced on
page 212.
The Brussels public are always glad to come
across any of their favourite artists at the Exhibition
of the Water Colour Society. This year the general
display seems to be better than that of 1895.
Professor Herkomer's little portrait of his brother
artist Mr. Stacey Marks is a remarkably clever piece
of work. Miss Clara Montalba—whom a well-
informed critic describes as line parisienne au goiit
raffine— sends some of her Venetian scenes, whose
rich colouring one never ceases to admire. Among
the Dutch exhibitors one notes, and should re-
member, the name of M. P. Rink, whose work is
full of interest; and among the Frenchmen a
curiously fanciful production by M. Detouche.
The members of the Society whose work is at-
tracting most attention include MM. J. De Vriendt,
Fernand Khnopff, and A. Lynen, figure painters,
and MM. Binje, Cassiers, Hagemans, Stacquet,
Uytterschant and Hoeterickz, landscapists and sea-
scapists ; not forgetting M. Titz, who here makes
his first appearance as a designer of posters.
The Water-Colour Society has lately lost two of
its members, M. Delperee and M. Jan Verhas.
The picture by the latter, called La Revue des Ecoles
became popular, and, under the evident influence of
Alma Tadema, he did several very pretty interiors.
The directors of the Maison d'Art in Brussels
have opened an exhibition of landscapes by Belgian
painters, among other interesting works being a
superb picture by Louis Dubois, entitled Le Chev-
reuil Mort, a very curious production by Felicien
Rops, and oils, pastels and water-colours by MM.
Asselbergs, Heymans, Baron, Claus, Degouve de
Nunques, Fernand Khnopff, Hagemans and R.
Wytsman. The last-named has also tried some
experiments in etching, one of which, Le Soir a
Dordrecht, is reproduced on this page.
