THE YALE ART SCHOOL.

The Annual of the Knstftution-Fhe
Work of the Year-The Reception
Last Evening.
The years work was laid aside at the Art
school yesterday afternoon, and pretty young
ladies with their professors filed the halls
with hustle and excitement. The entire
productions of the year were spread about the
walls and tables, and at IL o'clock the stu
dents began to look over their 200 or more
studies in drawing and modelling. The Sc.
lections of Frederick J. Langzetell, who died
in February, were placed in separate room.
He was an earnest worker, and his portraits,
marines, landscapes, etc., gave promise of a
rich genius in its maturity. Specimens of
his artistic designs from stained glass, wall
and ceiling decorations, and studies in water
and oil are of great merit.
Weekly exercises on given subjects by the
composition class are in the sketch state and
ready to be utilized in making pictures.
Those of Miss Elsie Rowland and Miss Jo-
sephine Lewis are especially fine. An ex-
quisite collection of studies from nature in
oil and water colors is exhibited by Miss
Minnie L. Miles, of Milford. Several ex-
cellent landscapes in water colors are by Miss
AuuIo OOuuBOu1 u 1CELuSE AEL SCHOOL DuD1I,

school.
Perspective drawings done by the pupils OF
Professor F. R. Honey and automatical
drawings by DIR. Fosters pupils also show
marked improvement over last year.
According to the wishes of Professor Me
meyer the exercises were conducted in pri-
vate, only graduates and students being adj
Enitted.

structors partook of a lunch together, after
which Professors J. r. Wier, J. 81. Niemeyer

young ladies.

school. Within all was gay with life and
beautiful with art The walls were loaded
with sketches, paintings in oil and water
celors, masterpieces by the great masters and
studies by the students. Standing forth from
