Studio- Talk
M. Heymans expresses a deep feeling
of Nature in his Nuit d'Orage. The
Flemish landscapes by M. Buysse and
Mdlle. Boch's Cotes de Bretagtie impressed
one by their sincerity; the paintings of
MM. Laermans and Coppieters by their
solid colouring, and the drawings of M.
Fernand Khnopff by their refined com-
position.

The bust of M. L. ., exhibited by
M. Lagae, may fairly be styled a master-
piece. The large collection sent by
M. P. Dubois included busts of various
sorts, and jewellery, examples of which were
reproduced in the last Winter Number
of The Studio. MM. C. Meunier and
Ch. Vanderstappen exhibited some im-
portant pieces of monumental sculpture.

The paintings by M. Anglada impressed
one by their exquisite colouring ; those of
M. Nils Kreuger by their essentially Northern senti- ance ; the portraits by M. Roussel by their care-
ment of melancholy; those of M. R. Pichot, on the fully-studied composition; M. P. Dupont's en-
other hand, by their thoroughly Southern exuber- gravings by their style ; those of Mdlle. K. Kollwitz
by their keen sentiment; and the little sculptures

Lerolle, Le Sidaner, Moreau-Nelaton, B. Priest-
man, A. Charpentier, Toorop, A. Robinson, Conder,
Boutet de Monvel, and Feuillatre, all of whom
were well represented.
The clou of the exhibition of the Socie'te des
Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles was a collection of the works

M. A. Struys sent a curious view of the Beguinage

MM. Rossuls, Verheyden, Gilsoul, and Hermanns,
