IRON AND COPPER GRILLE
DESIGNED BY H. R. ROSTRON
EXECUTED BY W. DUKE
the copper-work classes make good progress in
“raising” and repousse; the specimens exhibited
by Miss A. E. Pollexfen, Miss M. A. Pollexfen, and
C. E. Thompson were chiefly worthy of mention;
and praise is due to a wrought-iron and copper
“ grille,” designed by R. H. Rostron, and executed
by W. Duke. Mr. Herbert Jackson’s students in
the drawing and painting classes show creditable
and progressive work. H. B. B.
PARIS.—Thanks to the courtesy of M.
Paul Me'ric, the owner, we are enabled
to give a reproduction of one of the
most charming and masterly, yet least
known, of the paintings of the famous
author of the Angelas, Jean-Frangois Millet. This
Clair de Lu?ie, a work full of poetry, and perfect in
execution, figures in M. Mdric’s collection side by
side with other remarkable pictures, including two
canvases, also by Millet, Vieux Paysan et son Vieil
Ane, and Le Berger. As for his Clair de Lune, it
is impossible to express in mere words the beauty
of this work, which deserves to be in the Louvre.

which will be held in March next year at Georges
Petit’s gallery. M. Gabriel Mourey has been
appointed President of the new Society.
We have pleasure in giving illustrations (pages
192 and 193) of two admirable pieces of work from
the Atelier Haute-Claire—a casket in champleve
enamel and a bas-relief in bronze and enamel.
A new group of artists has just been formed,
under the style of the “ Soci^te Nouvelle de
Peintres et de Sculpteurs.” The artists composing
the society are as follows : J. W. Alexander, Aman-
Jean, Albert Baertsoen, Frank Brangwyn, Emile
Claus, Charles Cottet, Andre Dauchez, Henri
Duhem, Georges Griveau, Walter Gay, Gaston La
Touche, Le Sidaner, Henri Martin, Rene Menard,
Rene Prinet, Lucien Simon, Fritz Thaulow,
Eugene Vail, Alexandre Charpentier, Camille Le-
fevre, and Constantin Meunier. Although the
Society has not thought fit, at present, to organise
a decorative art section, it has invited Auguste
Delaherche to take part in its first exhibition,
