MEDALS BY A. G. GIRARUET

well-constructed portrait and a good landscape;
Benno Treidler, with one impressionistic landscape
and several powerful water-colours, of which vehicle
he is the recognised master in Rio; his two talented
pupils, Anna and Maria Cunha Vasco, who, though
still quite young, may claim to be counted among
mature artists, on account of the accomplished
way they handle the brush ; Gustavo DalPAra, with
two fine seascapes, full of fine lights, showing that
his Venetian temperament has found in Rio a con-
genial field for his colourist talent ; and Antonio
Luiz de Freitas, who prefers problems of light.

Among the newartists who bid fair to rapidly come
to the front, Eugenio Latour, Rodolpho Chambel-
land, and Antonio Fernandes deserve special men-
tion. Eugenio Latour has now been studying in
Europe for about two years, and he has sent home
a score of works evincing delicate feeling, sure
technique, a clean palette, and fine light effects.
J.ike him, Rodolpho Chambelland is of French

extraction, and his principal characteristics are a
certain boldness in tackling subjects of light and a
fine feeling for colour. Antonio Fernandes is a
young Spaniard who emigrated to Brazil when he
was twelve, studied here until he was nineteen,
then spent three years in Rome, working under the
Spanish painter Barbasan, and has come back now
with a good technique and a dozen interesting genre
paintings and landscapes. The names of Lucilio de
Albuquerque, Eduardo Bevilacqua, and A. Thimoteo
may be mentioned as talented young men working
hard for success. _

Auguste Girardet, the medallist, had a large and
important exhibition, and deserves rank among the
ablest of his kind. He is as excellent in the medal
proper as in the engraving on precious stones, and
his medals of the several presidents of Brazil are
truly noble works. He possesses a perfect tech-
nique united to inventiveness and a great charm.
In sculpture we had only the exhibition of
important works of the great Portuguese artist,
Antonio Peixeira Lopes, who won a mcdaille
d'honneur in the Paris Exhibition in 1900, and
one of whose works was presented by the King
of Portugal to ex-President Loubet a few months
before his retirement from office.
