walls are adorned with evergreens, flowers
aHd pictures. Among the latter Is painting
by MIR. l.. X. Bromley, an artist who is II
native Of Chicago. He came oouth in Janu-
airy 1882, 70 do art work for the Missouri
department. He found Texas n
great state and her citizens exceedingly
friendly. While at San Antonio he saw
much OF artistic and historical interest, and
conceived the idea OF placing upon canvass
some of the more interesting scores Incl
dent to the early history OF Texas. The
Siege OF The Alamo" Ia the fret work OF
importance which Mr.. B. has since flu
iished. The Canvass is.5S by 96 inches in
"a, and represents the siege at tho third
or final charge made upon the Alamo ON
The morning of March 9th, 1856. It Is the
intention OF the artist to place upon cam
yass at en- early day, some. OF the tragic
walls OF the sacred Alamo Immediately
after this spirited charge was made, nnd
the little band of heroes within we're so
airociously murdered. The siege OF the
Alamo has baen painted with the single
idea OF truthirIness, and it Is n subject
which affords the artist no opportunity to
produce vivid scene, with the
glare of the shells flving and
Kissing In mid.air, the flash OF cannon
and the usually briliient colored Dancers
end uniforms OF more modern armies. Bat
the early gray Of morning, supplemented
by the dull rays OF the scene, Affords the
truthful artist no lcencs to beautiiy his
work. Therefore, this great painting may
not convey TO its beholders. any idea OF the
vast amount OF labor and study necessary
TO produce such work. Mr.. Bromley val
ues this painting ut So $50 aud claims Us
simplicity of coloring as one OF its most
valuable features. IL will be placed on ex.
hibition in all the principal cities Of Texas
during the summer months, and will prob
ably rem ain in Austin during
the winter. The artist had no
commission to encourage him in thia
great work but has discovered vast field
| for the historian in our great state, aud Is
deeply interested in depicting some of the
many peculiarly interesting scenes OF her
early history. Mr.. Bromley. takes great
pleasure Ia placing his work before the
Texas Press association at this time, hoping
thereby to add to their pleasure while IN
| our city.
