Sutherland, in his pastoral renderings as poetic as
in his titles. _
In close proximity to the McTaggart landscape,
there hangs Lingering Winter, a great Houston, in
some respects the picture of the year. This trans-
cript of the Ayrshire countryside is charged with fine
naturalness, and herein is the secret of the artist’s
success. Other notable canvases are A Summer
Sea, R. M. G. Coventry, A.R.S.A., a striking
marine by the President of the Art Club; Loch
Garry, by A. Brownlie Docharty, rich with pri-
mordial grandeur; When Autumn leaves breathe
not a sound, by Archibald Kay, R.S.W., well com-
posed with stream, birch-clad banks and towering
hill beyond; Dundonald, by Walter McAdam,
R.S.W., a poetic Ayrshire landscape; The Lune,
by William Wells, R.B.A., a characteristic stretch
of the Lancashire country with group of well-
drawn figures ; From the Mussel Beds, by William
Pratt, and The Doves of the Salute, Venice, by
C. I. Lauder, R.S.W., a delightful study of Italian
architecture and atmosphere.
This is but brief mention of a few striking
pictures in a capital exhibition. There is, however,
one other picture that cannot in justice be omitted;
it has been the cynosure of all true art lovers at
the exhibition, and through the generosity of a
discriminating citizen it will take its place in the
Corporation permanent collection. The Clouded
Moon, by Julius Olsson, is the work of an artist
who has studied the sea to some purpose; and
the whole subject is treated in the most masterly
manner. J. T.
PARIS.—The fifth exhibition of the Societe
Internationale de la Peinture a l’Eau,
founded five years ago by that master of
the art, Gaston La Touche, was full of
work by the leading exponents of water-colour.
The show was admirably arranged, and the exhibits
were most happily grouped on the walls, and,
indeed, the ensemble reflected great credit upon
the Society’s distinguished President. Though
certain members, such as the Russian Alexandre
Benois, or Henry Cassiers, were unrepresented
