MINIATURE REVIVED.
A Protest Against the Photograph-An

English Society.
a revival of miniature painting has
been noted, and the miniature is pro-
test against the photograph, says the
New York Times If the features of the
man with the accentuations, take
well, by means of the camera, the more
delicate and finer traits of the woman do
not, and as far as photography is CON
cerned, II really handsome woman never
can be satisfied with her ''exact" photo
graph Then, again, how impossible it is
to mount mere bit of card board in
gold, beset with gems Perhaps rs far as
miniature work goes, Petitot and Cos
way were such masters of the art that
after them there were no successors
In the chatter of to-day INDUCED in by
those who actually practice art, there is
n tendency to enlarge on the theme of the
present grand and broad Manner just
as if we had outstripped the ancients.
The prattle is that II miniature is nicky,
insignificant, because lit must be stp.
pied, and to stipple is to be mechanical.
The greatest artists in miniature did
stipple, for you may not by broad or
slashing within IL minute space, say to
i inches long by > ID to inches in
width, but the miniature painters of the
last century knew by art alone how to yet
outside of their narrow limitations. In
England there is flourishing society of
miniature painters, and it is under the
auspices of the Royal Academy, and ut
its present exhibition it shows over one
hundred nctmres.
