a marked degree the individuality which charac-
terises his work. Mile. C. Goldinger also was
successful with her portrait of the Moscow pro-
fessor, M. Pyrin, and the work of A. Yasinsky and
a few others made a good impression. Sculpture
on this occasion was conspicuous by its absence,
and the graphic arts were very sparsely represented.
BY FEDOR ZAKHAROFF
All the art societies of Moscow, irrespective of
their tendency or points
of view, participated in an
exhibition in aid of the
funds being raised for
sufferers by the war. This
exhibition revealed few
surprises, for as a matter
of fact a large number of
the works which figured
in it had already been ex-
hibited on various occa-
sions during the past few
years. Among the artists
whose work attracted par-
ticular attention in this
display I must mention
Fedor Zakharoff, a young
painter who not very long
ago finished his training
at the Moscow'School of
Art. In a moderate sized
painting of a football
match, he showed himself
an impressionist ot much
talent, with a marked
singularly observant student
of nature, with a preference
for moods and motifs bring-
ing with them, to the
present writer at least, a parting message from a
Swedish winter, which has at last run its long
course. Roose is not alone in singling out this
distinctly picturesque phase as an acceptable sub-
ject for the brush or the needle, but he has acquitted
himself exceedingly well of the task he set himself,
in his own straightforward manner, which, however,
lacks nothing in the way of susceptible conception
and rendering. Roose is also an adept at wood
ability in the rendering of
movement and the play of
sunlight, while his auto-
portrait, painted almost in
the style of a miniature,
showed in this direction
also the promise of mastery.
It is my firm conviction
that we may expect much
good work from this
talented painter. P. E.
