Gustav Bamberger ex-
hibited a striking picture
of the Votive Church in
Vienna, the fine Gothic
architecture being faith-
fully but not slavishly
rendered. Franz Simon’s
coloured etchings deserve
praise, as does Emanuel
Hegenbarth’s Lagernde
Rinder, where weary
oxen are depicted at rest
in the meadows. Henryk
Uziemblo’s pastel, Mitter-
nacht, is full of “ Stim-
mung,” as is Ferdinand
Michl’s Ringelspiel in Jar-
din Luxemburg. Walter
Hampel contributed four
pictures, all in tempera,
and all showing that fine-
ness of conception, choice
of motif and delicacy of
treatment of which he is
so eminently a master; and
August Roth, a charming
picture of children bathing.
There was but little sculp-
ture exhibited. Among
the exhibitors Josef Heu
deserves a foremost place
for his portrait bust in
marble of Frdulem Elsa
Galafres and his Nacht-
153
of Fiirstin Sch-— is finely composed, and his
Children in a Garden charmingly expressed.
Alexander Goltz’s oil painting Prachatitz (a lovely
spot in Bohemia) is very felicitous. The fine tall
alders in full bloom make a graceful foreground,
while behind in the distance is the village nestling
against a background of low hills. Max Kahrer’s
Winter in der Au shows the meadows in their
sadness, grey and grey-brown tones are reflected in
the sad waters, and grey and grey-brown are the
trees. Joseph J. Beyer’s pastel called Under the
Elms depicts such a scene as one may behold any
summer’s day in the Prater. Here the joy of
life finds eloquent expression. A feeling of fresh-
ness pervades the scene
and the atmospheric quali-
ties are admirable.
wdchter; Michael Powolny’s portrait statue shows
fine manipulative treatment, and Emmerich Sirnay
in his Familiengluck (bronze), again shows what
a close observer he is of monkey-life. The ex-
hibition was arranged by Josef Urban, who in
the course of a few days had to transform the stage
of the Meunier Exhibition into this one, and did
his work exceedingly well. A. S. L.
Philadelphia.—The rapidly growing
importance of Philadelphia as a centre of
artistic endeavour in the United States
was most conspicuously shown in the
eighteenth annual Exhibition of Oil Paintings and
Sculpture recently held in the galleries of the Art
