“psyche” by LAURA COOMBES HILLS
Debutante, of a well-known figure in the social life
of Philadelphia, deserves particular mention. Good
drawing and beautiful imagery characterised Mrs.
Fairchild Fuller’s The Girl a?id the Net. Every
evidence of a successful effort was shown in the
portrait of Mrs. Frank Lawrence Stiles by Mrs.
Edna Huestis Simpson. Mrs. Emily Drayton
Taylor’s portrait of Master Albert M. Patterson,
and Three Little Sisters by Mrs. Margaret Kendall,
showed very penetrative study of child-life, and
were quite satisfactory from the artistic point of
view. E. C.
TOKYO.—The Jitsugetsu-kai (the Sun
and Moon Society) held its twelfth
exhibition in Uyeno Park recently.
This society of artists was founded by
Okakura Shusui in 1900 with the object of en-
couraging not only the Japanese but the Western
methods of painting as well, and also sculpture,
and is under the presidency of Viscount Kaneko.
The founder was a monjin of Kano Hogai, and this
year he exhibited Kwannon, Horaizan, and Eight
Scenes of Shosho, all showing the characteristics of
the Kano school to an almost extreme degree.
Nemoto Setsuho, an artist following the Shijo style
and a pupil of Araki Kwampo and Yauchi Baishu,
showed some good qualities in his exhibits.
Sakamaki Kogyo, a pupil of his father Tsukioka
Honen and later of Ogata Gekko, showed Okina,
a subject from the No drama, whence all his
motives are derived. Mio Goseki, a Shijo school
artist, and a monjin of Ohashi Suiseki, of Ogaki,
who is now seriously ill, exhibited his uncommon
skill in drawing tigers, in which subject his teacher
has long been famous. Among other supporters
of this society not already referred to may be
mentioned Honda Tenjo, Ogata Gekko, Yauchi
Baishu, Yamamoto Shoun, and Nomura Sekko.
The same society exhibited the last work of
Nemoto Shokoku, who was one of its most in-
fluential members until his death, which occurred
quite recently. The subject was A River Scene,
and the delicate and life-like depiction of carp in
the water revealed his unusual skill in this particular
“KWANNON.” BY OKAKURA SHUSUI
