Boston, Jan. 10.
While the problem of daily living at reason
able cost is still unsolyed the artists are busily
engaged painting idylic scenes and figures
which suggest Arcadian pleasures and COM
forts, which one can have for song. The art
club exhibition and reception of last Friday
evening showed some strong work, both of
this charming, fanciful kind and in portrait
ure. Edgar Parker, whose really remarkable
portrait of John G. Whittier last year added
SO greatly TO his reputation as a delineator of
the soul under the surface, has group of
three children in the exhibition, which attract
o good deal Of attention Mr.. Parker's flesh
tints seem to answer the question of the critic
of Hunts portraits-a deprecatory question,
put in despair after regarding Hunts strange
shades and sombre shadows "But who can
paint fesh?" thought of this question at my
first glance at the Whittier portrait last sum-
mer, and felt then SIS 1 do now that Mr..
Parker il anybody can paint flesh to look like
real flesh, and not like tinted wax. Robert
Vonnot, Henry O. Walker, Harvey Young and
George Fuller have some beautiful work here
also. Walker has o clever portrait of Mr.
Jamee, and Fuller has one of his portrait pic
lures of a young girl which haunts one with its
ideal qualities
The women artists here are doing splendid
work. Mrs. Houstcn's portrait of child is as
strong and fine as anvthing in the exhibition,
and Phebe jerks has portrait and figure
piece, which are neither of them up to her
"Singing Grip of last year, but they are not
ordinary in any sense, and show strength and
originality. Ida Bottle has contributed very
lovely picture of "a Flower Girl" that COM
pares favorably for strength and coloriug with
better known work. A very large canvas rep
