Mr. Baird received his training
as an artist at the Glasgow
School of Art under Mr. Fra
H. Newbury, the able director
of that renowned institution,
and he also studied under
Prof. Jean Delville at
Brussels. He has travelled
much in all parts of Europe,
and many Continental cities
have furnished him with
motives for his compositions
in the various mediums he
employs — pen-and-ink, etch-
ing, drypoint and water-
colour. Of late London has
claimed the chief share of his
attention, and his plate ot
Waterloo Bridge has been
selected as showing how ad-
mirably he has employed the
medium of etching to render a
view which has attracted in-
numerable artists.
