jects. Possibly this is the result of her
husbands long teaching and influence.
Wherever Kenyon Cox visits pictures exc
cuted by bis wife are sure 20 be found.
Mrs. Cox is purely an American artist,
never having studied abroad.
Another successful artist who is for
tunate enough to have husband in the
same profession is Mrs. Francis Murphy.
She possesses the boldness of true
colorist. exhibits in all the large gall
leries. and has on several occasions car
ried the prizes over the heads of some of
the best men in the country.
Miss Matilda Brown is one OF the young
est of the successful women exhibitors.
Miss Brown is barely twenty-five years of
age. and has been exhibiting for the last
thirteen years.
She was under twelve when her first
work appeared in the academy. She was
the youngest artist ever TO exhibit in the
exh ibition Most of her work is of
animals or flowers. She has been very
successful in portraying the COW. Her
studies OF flowers are nearly always to be
found on the line.
Dora Wheeler Keith has had more than
ordinary success. Her talent has been
directly inherited from her mother, Mrs.
Candace Wheeler. 1t is her imag inatiye
qualities that have made her so successful
as a painter, illustrator, and designer. at

OF the Roman Water Color Society-a dis
tinction seldom conferred upon woman.
Since 1884, when she came to America,
Mrs. Nichols has devoted herself almost
exclusively to water color painting and
teaching. The first work she exhibited
in this country was A Summer Afternoon
in Venice" Though quite a small picture,
it attracted much attention on account ofits
strong effects in light and shade. The
year which she spent on the south coast OF
Africa was devoted 70 painting desert
scenes and African farms. Among her
best known works may be counted Those
Evening Bells" and the Scarlet Letter"
For the last three years Mrs. Nichols
has taken charge of Mr.. Chase's school at
Shinnecock, L. l., where she has a large
class of young men and women who fol-
low her over the moors to watch her
skillful handling and poetic reproduce ons
Of nature.
Miss Celia Beaux, of P Philadelphia, though
under thirty years of age, is one Of the
cleverest portrait painters in America.
In the last exhibition of the Fine Arts
Society Miss Beaux's portrait of "a
Girl and a Cat. 3" and her sketch of Rosina
Emmett Sberwood's little girl were the
cIeverest OF her productions. She is a
disciple of Sargent, follows him closely,
and pushes him hard She was a student
at the Academy Julien. where she studied
under Bonguereau. Constant, Tony Rob-
erts and Carolus Duran.
Mrs. Kenyon Cox, the wife of the
well known artist and teacher, devotes
herself almost entirely 10 religious SUBJ
