artistic.

One of the Chicago papers in its cart
columns has the following to say of an
artist in whose attachments Watertown
feels an interest:
Mrs. Mary A. Wright has returned
from a months sketching trip to the
neighborhCod of WatertoWn. Wis, and
will be in her studio in the Ashland block
during July. She has brought back a
number of excellent sketches, many OF
which are transcriptions of char ming
summer landscapes, soft and harmonious
in color, and full Of sentiment. A quiet,
green landscape, lying in the shadow of
q coming shower, is very true to nature,
the effect of cloud and rain being finely
rendered. A bit of nature, with the fresh,
bright tints and clearing sky after a rain,
is very good, and one or two sunset views,
full of light and color are the best. She
has also made some careful studies Of
trees. The artist goes to western New
York later in the season for autumn
sketches.
