MATTHEW'S PICNIC PARTY.

"a Picnic Party at FL Campo" is the title
OF painting now being prepared for the
Chicago Exposition by Arthur F. Mathews.
II is canvas four feet by six, and con.
tains over geo figures, all of which are
faithful likenesses.
The scene is laid In the grove, where a
party of friends are assembled.
Apparently those In the foreground have
finished their picnic lunch and are only
waiting till their friends are through.
The faces are OF every type of California
girl. blonde and brunette or auburn haired.
tall and short, lounging about in pictur-
esqus attitudes or walking across the
grounds.
Probably the one who Looks most dull and
listless is the girl vino cannot see much fun
in girls picnic, where the boys are not
permitted TO be present, for there Is a re-
markable absence OF young men, though
one or two elderly ones are enjoying the
pleasures of the table in the background.
The figures are all we'll drawn and the pro-
portions are accurate, as indeed they could
not fail 10 be by Mr.. Mathews. Over 800
sketches have been taken of those present
at the picnic in order TO secure perfection of
detail.
The colorings are excellent because uatu-
raj. and the costumiug Of the figures has

far as her specially is concerned, having
only studied portrait painting in the art
school under the late Virgil Williams.
Afterward she from love of them under
took to paint the native wild flowers of the
State. and so good was her success that she
went in for more ambitious work and has
painted some wonderful roses. peonies,
pelargoniums and other flowers that have
been awarded the highest prizes wherever
exhibited
When at the art school Mrs. Chlttenden
applied herself particularly to perfection of
detail. and II is this that has given her the
success she has now achieved.
At the Worlds Fair she will have two
paintings. one the group OF chrysanthe-
NUNS and the other group of peonies, and
for form and colorng they will be excelled
by no artist at the fair.
Mrs. Waite OF the woman's department
was very anxious to obtain a panel for the
Woman's Pavilion painted by Mrs. Chitten-
den. but the work she had In hand pre-
Guided the idea of any further contributions
and she was reluctantly compelled to de-
cline.
Both the paintings for the Worlds Fair
will be on exhibition at the Mechanics
Institute next month before being sent to
Chicago,
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1892-12-12

California will be well represented at the
Worlds Fair in one department at least, If
the artists of the coast can have their way.
They are putting forth their best efforts
for their contributions to the art depart
ment, and are determined that no other
State in the Union shall be able to show
better work than theirs.
They have good reason to be sangulne OF
success.
The magnificent scenery of the State, and
especially of the Yosemite, gives them great
opportunities for good work, OF which they
are moi slow to avail themselves.
San Francisco. too, possesses great ad-
vantage over many other cities In the
splendid opportunities for learning afforded
by the Art Association and School OF De-
sign established here.
Baltimore, though nearly half as large
again, has few artists of merit and but a
feeble art school, when compared with the
fourishing association in San Francisco.
where art is taught by artists who have
shown the world the genius they possessed.
Proud of the work that has been done
here. they are now going to show the world
in general what they can do. and are sending
their best work 10 exhibit with the best
work of other nations, and are con fdent of
favorable verdict
Some of the artists who have determined
10 contribute are portrait-painters, others
have a genius for stlll life. a few have
made specially Of marine views, while at
least one artist is almost at the head Of the
profession a a lOWer-painter.
Contributions are being sent to the main
art gallery by some Of the artists, TO the
California building by others, and to the
Women's building by still more.
This morning The CALL Is enabled TO re-
produce sketches from some of these paint
ing', and it will be readily seen that many
Of them have special merit apart from the
reputation that some of the artists have
already obtained, and which will doubtless
be greatly ENLARGED by the exhibition of
their works at the Worlds Fair in Chicago.

Another marine view Is from the sands

climb on to them.
The tropical scenes are rich and full of
color and life and are from scenes visited
