"the bather" (bronze) by carl wollek
(Mdhrischer Kunslverein, Brunn)
would tell you everything in the simplest words.
This he also shows in his Old Street in Brunn,
which is delightful in colouring and delicately
portrayed. Alfred Milan's still-life subjects and
flower-pieces were well rendered and genial in
colour ; I noted also Samuel Brunner's Judenhoj
in Ulm, a thoughtful piece of painting, and Hans
Wacha's Spring Evening, showing a fine apprecia-
tion for " Stimmung " and a personal note. Adolf
Holzel, Victor Bohm, Hugo Klein, Eduard
Csank, Emil Singer, Adolf Wolf-Rotenhahn,
Wilhelm Vita, and Simon Glucklich were all well
represented. Carl Godel's Am Steinbruch, with its
gradations of light and shade, Carl Weiss's
■Dominikanergasse in Brunn, a romantic transcript
°f a familiar scene, and the contributions of
Edmund Baschny, Bruno Beran, Ernst Czernotzky,
and Alexander Poch must also be mentioned.
The exhibition was interesting as signalising the
realisation of a long-felt desire to give art a firm
footiug m this small but important town, which may
be called the Manchester of Moravia, and indeed
of Austria. The first exhibition of art was held
here as far back as 1838, by the Friends of Art.
For a time these exhibitions were sporadic, but since
1882 they have been held fairly regularly. During
the last twenty years the art lovers of Brunn have
spent over a million kronen on pictures bought
from this society alone, so that the present gallery
was justified.
An exhibition of Mr. Brangwyn's etchings held
at the Erzherzog Rainer Museum, and arranged
by its director, Dr. Julius Leisching, was warmly
appreciated and met with much success. Mr.
Brangwyn has many admirers here and in other
towns in Austria. A. S. L.
