VENICE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION
"LA DEPOSIZIONE." FRESCO
PAINTING BY GUIDO CADORIN
painter, an almost excessive facility which I
think he would do well to restrain a little
or he may soon become superficial. M.
Lionnello Cappiello, of Parisian poster
fame, has a collective exhibit in the Italian
Section. His fertile imagination, his bold
draughtsmanship, the brilliance of his
colour are well known. Lastly, I must not
omit to mention the contributions of MM.
Funi, Guidi, Sacchi, Natali, Nomellini,
Selvatico, Trentini, and Carena, which in
one way and another help to give to this
section the value of true originality and
illustrate present tendencies in Italian
painting. 00000
Among the best pieces of sculpture I
will mention a very beautiful figure by M.
Selva, called Rhythms, an alluring bust of a
woman by M. Rubino, The First Sin by M.
Ciampi, The Brute by M. Nicolini, the St.
Francis of Assisi, and Portrait of the Painter
Carpi, both excellent pieces by M. Andre-
otti; the bust of the Marchesa Medici del
Vascello by M. D'Antino, a numerous
seiies of works by M. Paul Troubetzkoy,
and a little display in memory of that fine
master, Canova. 0000
The foreign sections are not behind the
Italian in attractiveness. 000
In the British Pavilion, while regretting
the absence of Mr. Brangwyn, the organiser
of this section, I must, alas ! be content
with merely noting the presence of Messrs.
Walter Bayes (whose large canvas Oratio
Obliqua is a very remarkable work), G.
Clausen, D. Y. Cameron, Anning Bell,
Walter Sickert, John Nash, Eric Kenning-
ton, Mark Fisher, William Nicholson, B.
Meninsky, and Sir John Lavery. 0 0
