"A PIECE OF OLD CHINA"

the exhibition. a a a a
The interval between the seasons was
at the Grosvenor Galleries filled by a well-
selected assortment of paintings, drawings
and sculpture by contemporary artists,
all with a very few exceptions British,
which may fairly be said to have repre-
sented the best tendencies in modern art,
the trite and commonplace type of pro-
duction being excluded, as also per-
formances of so-called ultra-modernity.
As a clue to the sound eclecticism shown
in organising the display, it will suffice
to mention the names of Mr. J. S.
Sargent, Mr. Glyn Philpot,"^ Mr. John
Lavery, Mr. William Nicholson, Sir
Charles J. Holmes, Mr. Hughes-Stanton,
Mr. Adrian Stokes, Mr. D. Y. Cameron,
Sir William Orpen, Mr. Augustus John,
Mr. Gilbert Spencer, Mr. Clausen and
Mr. Munnings amongst the leading painters
represented ; and Mr. Jacob Epstein, Dr.
Macgillivray and Mr. Henry Poole among
the sculptors. Some of the water-colours
by Sir C. J. Holmes in this exhibition
re-appeared in a comprehensive display
of his work in this medium which filled
the largest room of these galleries last
month. The majority of the drawings
shown were landscape studies from the
uplands of the Lake district mingled with
a few from the South of France and else-
where, in all of which was revealed a deep
interest in Nature's manifold aspects and
moods. In the other rooms were shown
groups of drawings by Mr. A. S. Hartrick,
Mr. R. G. D. Alexander and Mrs. E.

with a rare and delightful sense of colour,

landscape. a a 0 a a
In addition to a few things from the

of bygone days in which this artist has
