"living-room picture" no. i (In the collection of James Murray, Esq., J.P.)
Newbury, and Preparations, Carnarvon Castle, by
Mr. William Monk.
The Baillie Gallery has once more been success-
ful in introducing to the notice of the public an
artist of unusual originality in Mr. Stephen Haweis.
This painter has a real gift for fantasy, and also a
sensitive appreciation of the medium of oil-painting
which gives much charm to his execution. Miss
Maud D. Hurst's coloured etchings and Miss
Broughton-Leigh's water-colours at the same Gallery
deserve remark for their skill, Miss Hurst's plates
Bosham Church and South Cerney Village being
especially successful efforts in the method of printing
more than one colour from the same plate.
The Chenil Galleries have just concluded an
important exhibition of paintings, drawings and
etchings by Mr. Augustus E. John. It is this
artist's peculiar gift to make his colour a reflection
of the very colour of his thoughts. The subjective
character of his paintings is, however, united with
a realism that puts many an artist out of court who
pursues this aim for its own sake through objective
methods.

The Second Exhibition of the Camden Town
Group at the Carfax Gallery introduced us to
an avowed disciple of Mr. John in Mr. J. D.
Innes. Work by Mr. Henry Lamb, who makes his
own departures in a vein that yet reflects Mr.
John's influence, was also shown. The Exhibition
owed much to the vivacious art of Mr. Spencer
Gore, and it was good " hanging " to put it next to
the more pessimistic atmosphere of Mr. Sickert's.
Mr. C. Ginner's work disappoints upon examination.
Mr. Wyndham's sense of decoration in colour is
entitled to high tribute. Mr. J. B. Manson con-
tributed two of the most interesting pictures in
Evening Sunlight and The Sussex Downs, Storring-
ton. Mr. Walter Bayes has never been more
successful than in The Bridge and Padstow
Regatta. The Group consists of sixteen members.
We are reproducing herewith one of the highly
original panels in oil which attracted attention to
Mr. Val Havers's name at the last Royal Academy
Exhibition, where they were hung with the simple
but quite expressive title of " Living-Room Bic-
tures." Their well-planned decorative intention
gives them a peculiar claim to the title.
