that it is drawn with so
much knowledge, delicacy,
and ease and grace, that
it could not well be im-

Englishmen. As a painter,
both in water-colour and
in oils, Mr. Shackleton was
for some time influenced
by Mr. Edward Stott, but
his pictures this year show
that he has nearly passed
through his period of dis-
cipleship, and is rapidly
forming a style of his own.

Gallery, in which a girl is
represented in the act of
singing on a balcony at
Siena, is full of that myste-
rious poetry that music
awakens in everyone who
listens to it in the twilight.
