minence both in detailed and in summarising
statements, and the landscapist Paul Baum
gave evidence of his candid devotion to pointil-

sphere of all sorts of historical phases, again

humorist Heinrich Zille, was to be studied in

spheric unrest, in a clever combination of etching
and dry point occasionally accentuated with
