fatiguing to the eye. Some
posters by Crespin, and
superb lithographs by
KhnopfF, some masks by
Isidor de Rudder, and
bronzes by Victor Rous-
seau adorned the studio.
In the five next rooms
were collected the archi-
tectural drawings and
bronzes, and M. Wolfers's

staircase and the door
were commendable for
sound, plain design and
happy details, very un-
