How to Hang Pictures.

An artist being asked for simple rule
for hanging pictures, gave the following
directions: 1.-THE height, size and dec
grafton OF the room should be taken
into account, but it is best, whore only
one row Of pictures is hung, to have the
central point in each on level with the
eye Of the ordinary person. For instance,
in Q Vignette portrait the central point
il the chin. You can make no mistake
about the point in any picture, for the
eye involuntarily rests upon it at the
first glance. That reminds me to speak
Of frequent error on the part Of trainers
who lack artistic knowledge. This
central point should be at the exact
intersection Of two diagonal lines drawn
from thecorners OF the frame, not the
mat. Many pictures appsAE to those
