| SOME ILLUSTRATIONS AND WATER


At the Keppel Gallery there remain view for
few days longer some admirably drawn illustrations
to Spenser's "Epithaamion." They made by
George Wharton Edwards, who also exhibits a num-
ber Of water colors of seacoast scenery and some
drawings made for other purposes than those of the
Spenser pictures. The latter most artistic and
most charming when they not pictures. but
decorations. For Mr.. Edwards. as illustrator of
the English poet it Is possible to say much IN
And Thou, Great juno etc. and this is not
very impressive best There Is nothing OF Spenser
in the design nothing OF his poetry. his ndescrib.

title page. TO the production OF designs like No 20

compete master OF the situation and weaves his
brilliant line into fascinating arabesGues.
Mr.. Edwards is a strong draughtsnan, and even
his least Spenserian drawings are full OF power as
OF floral themes Is always felicitous, and the very
draperies which his figures wear to the utter dis
cCmfture of Spenser. are brilliantly effective as pat
terms, as schemes OF line. The exhibition may be
cordially recommended to every student OF PEN

may be at free flowing and true TO the conven-

Mr.. Edwards is such valuable parsonage. His few
