The farm is situated half a mile
from the hilly coast of the Bal-
tic Sea. Green with beech-
woods, blue with the waters,
and yellow with fields of rape-
seed and rye, these shores are
resplendent with colours that
find their poetic interpreter

painter, who has seen them
from childhood and now sings
their praises as a man loving
his home.
CLAUS GROTH FROM A WATER-COLOUR STUDY BY HANS OLDE
As a portraitist, Olde has
been successful as an etcher
as well as a painter in oils and
water colours. The charac-
teristic head and figure of the
lately deceased poet Claus
Groth of Kiel, was many a
time painted by him. We
illustrate on this page an open-
air study of the upright figure
in white waistcoat and long
black coat, standing in his
garden with both hands behind
his back, while the point of an
umbrella is just visible—a
tender memento of the un-
settled climate, which con-
tinually jeopardises outdoor
exercise on our delightful sea-
board. The etching (page 63)
