cheval arabe, a careful and exact study of the
animal and its specialised form, and also excellent
works by Doigneau and Dagnac-Riviere. M. Stein-
len has always been par excellence the painter of
cats; no one has depicted with greater fidelity
all the lithe and subtle attitudes of this branch of
the genus Feiidce. He has made a transcript by
lithography of one of the
best of his studies, and
this, herewith reproduced,
was used as a poster for
the exhibition. Lastly,
there was here revealed a
young artist of consider-
able talent, M. Oger, of
whom I shall have some-
thing to say on another
occasion. In his studies
of birds, lions and dogs,
M. Oger gives evidence of
great freedom and a charm-
ing precision in the use of
crayon. We shall expect
much from him. H. F.
for the comparatively large
number of really good
works. Among .them a
large portrait group by
Josef Jungwirth, repre-
senting a sitting in the
Lower Austrian Diet, is
one of the most note-
worthy, because of the
excellence of the compo-
sition as a whole and in
detail. The work contains
no less than a hundred-
and-twenty portraits, for
each of which the painter
received sittings. Promi-
nent among the assembled
members is Dr. Carl
Lueger, the Burgomaster
of Vienna, to whom the
members are listening with
by steinlen upturned faces, illumined
by the light from their
green-shaded electric lamps. The entire work occu-
pied two years in execution, and as may be imagined
involved a vast amount of preparatory study in the
shape of portrait sketches and other details. Two
other important historical works were exhibited,
both commissioned by the Archduke Francis
Ferdinand—one by Ludwig Koch, representing
