MElssoNIERs 'LEs DEUx VAN DE vELDE.
There will be placed on private view from to-day.
at Schaus Co.'s. celebrated little picture by
Meissonier. calied "L2s Deux Van de vede," which,
from its literary well artistic interest will al
ways be known as one of the painters master
pieces This small panel, 10axsH inches in size,
formed part of the famed Laurent Richard collection
which sold in Paris in May of last year. OF
which sale we, at tho time. gave full
account by cable. and was withdrawn it was
supposed the highest price of the s11 42o
Mr.. Schaus, who bought it afterward now asks for
it SIS Co., In the studio of Adreu Van de Vede are

brother Wllem, the marine painter. The latter has
come on the invitation of the former to give his
criticism and advice new picture which is about
finished and stands framed on the EASEL Willem is

which jug and half filled wine glass. helmet,

By the cabinet. on the floor is an open portfolio OF
drawings. There Is canvas, with landscape on 1t,
high up OH tho wall; several are placed face to the
surbace the floor, and carved chair is seen in
part to the left by the door through which the light
comes. The poses and expressions of the figures.
down to the minutest Details leave little or nothing
to be desired, does the execution of all the
accessories. the dresses. furniture. bric-a-brac
and even the studio floor. The combination
of color formed by the red cloak Of Willem. his
yellow felt hat, the rest of his gray costume-that
OF his brother of the same color-the light wood
of the EASEL the rich nts Of the mahogany cabinet
and those of the various accessory bits is very
pleasing. From the engravings and etchings of the
work, which have seen we had been led to ex-
pect strong effect of light and shade, and that
which the engraver and etcher has supplied we
think the original would have been better for.
Nevertheless the work. which painted in 1856.
is excellent one and well worthy OF its painters
great reputation.
Among the other new pictures which have recently
been added to the gallery is large and fine Clays
"Calme Environs de IIle do Schouwen en-
Zelande" which was one of the two pictures which
that painter contributed to the last Salon; study
by Diax, a superb bit of color ana effect called "a
Turkish House, and largo Zem, "The Public
Gardens OF Venice" subject which the artist does
not here treat for the first time.
