Studio-Talk
is the outcome of a desire by the members to have
their work shown free from the restrictions which
operate in general exhibitions. The members of
the new society in addition to the two already
named are Messrs. P. W. Adam, R.S.A., James
Paterson, R.S.A., James Cadenhead, A.R.S.A.,
F. C. B. Cadell, David Alison, and A. G. Sinclair,
and their first exhibition was held last month.
In the large room each artist’s work was grouped
by itself, an arrangement satisfactory to both the
artist and the public. Mr. Lavery’s contributions
were three figure subjects and two landscapes, the
former a chic figure of a Marseillaise, a low-toned
Diana returning from her morning ride, and Anna
Pavlova as a Bacchante, opulent in its red and
purple colour. Mr. Harrington Mann was repre-
sented by portraiture; his Little French Peasant, a
group of a mother and child, and particularly
Annabel, a picture of a chubby little girl in white,
being remarkable for their beautiful simplicity of
treatment and well-modulated colour. The lead-
ing feature of Mr. Paterson’s contribution was a
panel of twelve small pictures in oil representing
Highland scenery.
Mr. Adam has for many years now specialised
in interiors, and this type of subject formed almost
the whole of his contribution. His principal picture
was Autumn, the interior of a drawing-room in which
the leading colour-note was vases of Michaelmas
daisies, a remarkable modulation of purple tones
being carried throughout the apartment. Mr. Caden-
head’s work has never been seen to such advan-
tage as in this exhibition. His art in its scholarly
simplicity does not always reveal its full beauty
in an ordinary exhibition surrounded by disturbing
influences. The six landscapes had each a dis-
tinctive note and yet they were so related that one
could study them as a symphonic presentment of
“houses near Kerch”
