Paris "Impressionism" in Art.


An exhibition has been recently opened at
groupe d'artistes independents" as they style
themselves in their prospectus, although they
are none other than our old acquaintance, the
'Impressionists, who have, however, become
disguised with the name under which they
first challenged public attention. Nor is this
disgust to be marvelled att for the term 'Im-
pressionist" has been applied to Courbet, and
to others like him, who knew how to draw,
and who were not ignorant of the art of paint
ing Us it isigeuerAly understood by ordinary
mortals; and these two accomplishments stink
in the nostrils of independent art.' The
first things that strike spectators eye on en-
tering the independent gallery are the frames
in which it has seemed good to the exhibitors
TO hang their works; and one asks oneself in
sheer bewilderment whether it can be possible
that the independent artists have succeeded
in finding an independent frame-maker to aid
them in their task, for it is out of the question
that any sane workman should have consented
TO make such monStrositieS. Frames of scar
let, frames of mauve, and frames of violet
follow each other in hideous succession, fore
ing the wearied eye to turn for relief to the
pictures they enclose, and making one think
that the ugly manifestation of eccentricity

plot on the part of the artists to force one to
look at their productions. OF the technical
qualities of these it is SO difficult to think seri-
oasly-or to think at al-that we devoted most
of he time that VIC spent among them in en-
6esvoring to find out the hidden impulses
which drive men TO represent nature i'll such a
manner In this matter we believe that we
have had some success. The conviction in
which the independent landscape painter
clothes himself as in garment appears to us
to be that the world which we inhabit is a
much sleeper place than we work-a-day people
have supposed it to be; and that its deni-
zens-man and beast and creeping thing, to-
gether with its vegetation-suffer under a
chronic tendency to fall from right to left

An American Painter in London.
A year Or two ago there appeared book of
very clever studio talk" in which the sayings
of an American painter were chronicled by
one of his pupils, lady, and recommended
to the English public by letter from Mr..
Millais by way of preface. The sayings were
smart and contained much good advice. The
Americanisms with which they are favored
only added to their piquancy, and considera-
BILE interest was aroused as to what kind of a
painter their author might be. Curiosity on
that point may now be easily gratifed as
representative collection of pictures by the
late William Morris Hunt, talker in question,
has been brought together at IA Grafton street,
Piccadilly. Mr.. Hunt was pupil of the
Frenchmen Couture and Millet; and his art
ideas, like those of most of his countrymen,
were much more French than English. His
technical methods seem to have been chiefly
directed to obtaining breadth of light and shade
and truth of what is called "value." His SUBJ
iects must have been various. This collection
contains portraits, pictures of genre, animal
pieces and landscapes-among the latter an
ambitious attempt to portray the glories of
Niagara. The1most interesting and perhaps
the best work Of them all is a portrait OF Pres
ident Lincoln, in which his strongly marked
features give an opportunity for powerful
brush work. A small cattle piece, in which
the influence of Millet is rather too apparent
is warm and clear in color, and portrait of
the artist himselfis simple and vigorous. But
on the whole, fdr. Hunt was cleaverer with his
tongue than with his pencil, and perhaps the
atmosphere of fiattery in which he seems to
have lived at Boston did something to arrest
the development of his powers as q painter
