STONEWARE MADE FOR THE ROYAL COPENHAGEN PORCELAIN MANUFACTORY BY P. NORSTROM ; BRONZE MOUNTING
BY G. THYLSTRUP
spent in Rome at a time
when the Spanish colony
of artists exercised great
influence, he passed two
years in the beautiful
Hardanger region in com-
pany with the Norwegian
composer Edvard Grieg.
Early in the ’eighties he
was in Paris ; Meissonier,
Bonnat, Carolus Duran,
Bastien Lepage, Gerome
and Detaille were then
at the height of their
fame, and Mr. Peters
received much encourage-
ment from the two last-
named masters, whose
acquaintance he made.
Mr. Peters has exhibited
mostly at the Paris Salon,
and occasionally his
work is to be seen at
the Royal Academy in
London. He paints
always direct from
nature, and he has a
distinct partiality for the
water-colour medium
though he is equally at
home with oils, besides
being an adept in the
use of the etching
needle. M. S.
