Oskar Glatz, and Gyula Glatter. Ot the two last-
mentioned Oskar Glatz's portrait of the little son
of Dr. de Terey shows a fine feeling for colour-
arrangement and of space. Gyula Glatter's portrait
of a lady has fine qualities and is decidedly a dis-
tinctive as well as a sympathetic work.

Michael Munkacsy, the great Hungarian painter,
died in May 1900, and immediately after his
death the Society of Fine Arts here started a
movement for raising a memorial to commemorate
the genius of their famous colleague. In the
course of these eleven years the fund has continued
to grow until it has amounted to 40,000 kronen,
but although two competitions have been organised,
the models submitted to the jury have failed to
meet with their approval, and consequently the
project still remains to be carried out. Instead of
proceeding with it at once the Society of Fine
Arts decided to have a monument erected over
the spot in the Kerepes Cemetery where the mortal
remains of the painter were interred; and this
subsidiary scheme was carried to completion on
June 18, when the monument, of which an illustra-
tion is given on p. 320, was unveiled with becoming
ceremony. The committee having charge of this
monument had at its disposal a sum of 13,000
kronen, and invited two sculptors, Eduard Teles
and Nicolas Ligeti, and the architect, Edmund
name such masters as Laszlo, Horovitz, and Lechner, to submit designs in competition, but
Benczur. For the rest, mention must be made Ligeti and Lechner withdrew in favour of Teles,
of Armin Horovitz, an artist of great promise, who was thus left to carry out the commission.
