Studio-Talk
delicately coloured land-
scape by J. Paterson ; and
G. Sauter's Music, which
was reproduced in The
Studio last year.
The Belgian Society of
Aquafortists is preparing
an exhibition of Belgian
engravings to be held in
the galleries of our Cercle
Artistique early next year.
A few engravers of estab-
lished reputation exhibit
regularly at the " Official"
Salons; but others there
are, more retiring or more
independent, who rarely
show their productions to
the public. This is the
case with M. F. Marechal,
the interesting Liege artist
—soon to form the sub-
ject of a study in these
BHBBBBBB11 columns — whose remark-
able plates are unknown to
by h. vandevelde all save a few collectors,
BRUSSELS.—The fertility of that very
modern decorator, M. Henry Van-
develde, is becoming more and more
conspicuous; quite recently he has
undertaken important work for Brus-
sels, Berlin, and Paris, and we shall, therefore,
soon see the result in the shape of other sets
of furniture conceived and constructed in the
solid, simple, and ingenious manner for which
he is famous. He has just completed, for Count
Kessler of Berlin, a mobilier in white lacquered
wood, ornamented with tin appliques, the effect
both of colour and of line being most happy.
Among the purchases—both numerous and
judicious—made by the Belgian Government
from the Ghent Salon, especially noteworthy is t
Fantin-Latour's superb canvas, La Lepn de '" 1 MPTB
Dessin, which, in its grave style and honest 11 iK
execution, should set a most salutary example.
There are several English works too, among tl
them J. Lavery's The Night after the Battle of ■ ''
Langside, already exhibited in Brussels; a very sideboard by h. vandevelde
