Modern Painting in Sweden
The most ardent wish
of every lover of art in
Sweden now is that a
speedy reconciliation be-
tween the various parties
maybe finally and peaceably
effected. It would surely
confer a lasting honour
upcn both.

these should be mentioned especially a collection
of seventy or eighty drawings in pencil of old
London by Mr. Vernon Howe Bailey, exposed in
the gallery of the Pennsylvania Museum. Broadly
treated sketches, in which skilful use of the flat
point of the pencil is made, of bits of the architec-
ture around the Inns of Court—including Staple
Inn, Clifford's Inn, Lincoln's Inn, St. Bartholomew's
Close, Cloth Fair, etc., and other historical spots,
made up the greater part of the exhibition.
This was followed a week later by an exhibition
of sketches in colour made in France, Belgium,
Germany and Italy, by Albert Jean Adolph.
These were in oil and water-colour, and included
some admirable views of interesting parts of Paris.
Both of these artists were students in the school of
art of the Pennsylvania Museum, and very
appropriately were offered the use of the gallery
for showing the result of their work whilst abroad.
The annual exhibition of the members of the
Philadelphia Sketch Club included one hundred
and forty-four sketches in oil, pastel, and water-
colour. The most interesting of these was a series
of nineteen cleverly handled little views in Arizona
by Mr. William C. Watts. Prizes were awarded
to Mr. George Oberteuffer for his picture entitled
Sunlight; to Mr. Alexander Bower for his
Autumn; and to Mr. Adolf H. Pfeil for his
Storm. A number of sketches of scenes in London
music-halls by E. L. Bryant deserved notice for
their originality and delightful freedom of rendering.
