Fromentin As a Painter of Horses.

| Henry EcEford's interesting il1ustratz
ed article in the Century, on Eugene
| Eromentin, describes as follows his
method of studying the motion of
horses:
The biography states that Fromentin
was never satisfied with himself in re-
gard to an animal seldom absent from
MS pictures, and which certainly adds a
great charm to the scenes. The beauty
and movement of the Arabian horses
were studied necessarily. He was al
ways watching them in Algiers; he
owned several IN France. One of his
ielioW-painters has said that Fromentib
drew horses much oftener and much
oetteF from memory or intuition than
from lie. nj. Gonse insinuates that he
did them better from chic. word that
