THE ROYAL SCOTTISH ACADEMY

"MOURNING ANGEL" (PAINTED
TERRACOTTA) BY G. ALICE
MEREDITH WILLIAMS

Without the contributions of this young
school the general colour of the exhibition
would be decidedly dull. I include with
them the portraits by Mr. W. O. Hutchison
which, though they are perhaps not
quite so alluring as his work of last year,
are, nevertheless, distinctly personal, as
also are those by Mr. Eric Robertson,
notably his The Rose Fan and Cecile.
Another artist who has made a rapid
advance is Mr. Hamish Paterson, who

shows an impressive portrait of Mrs.
James Boyd, and among women artists
Miss Dorothy Johnstone has never been
so successful as in her large portrait
group, Edith and Jean Barbara and a
smaller canvas of a Boy*s Head. With
these one must mention Miss Norah
Neilson Gray's Mrs. Ronald Spiers,
The Blue Butterfly, by Miss Helen
Johnston, and The Dhobi,\by Mabel A.
