' THE OLD THATCHER." WOOD
ENGRAVING BY EDWARD ERTZ
(Royal Academy, 1922)
known to our readers. Mr. Turnbull's
name also may be known to a good many,
for as a painter he has been a frequent
exhibitor at the R.A. in past years. His
etching of St. Paul's is a remarkable
achievement, and though, as we under-
stand, its execution was in noway prompted
by the approaching bicentenary com-
memoration, it comes as an eloquent and
impressive reminder of Wren's superb
genius. As is evident from our reduced
reproduction, though the artist has be-
stowed much care on the details of his
plate, the fact does not detract from the
dignity of the composition as a whole. 0
A propos of certain lithographs repro-
duced to illustrate our recent article on
the Central School of Arts and Crafts, it
has been pointed out to us that these
lithographs belong to a series produced by
paid professional artists with the assistance
and advice of Mr. F. E. Jackson quite
apart from the ordinary curriculum of the
school, and under the supervision of a
special advisory committee appointed by
the London County Council as the educa-
tional authority for London, and that, con-
sequently, it was incorrect to describe Miss
Hey and Miss Henderson as students. We
were unaware of these facts when the
article was being prepared. 0 0
In order to give artists, other than those
specially invited, an opportunity to show
their work in the United States during
the 22nd International Exhibition of
Modern Paintings that will open next
April at the Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh,
sufficient wall space is being reserved for
15 paintings to be selected by an Anglo-
American Committee meeting in London
from among works submitted by British
artists. Particulars can be obtained from
