TABLEAUS IN DAYLIGHT.

An exceedingly successful little entertainment
was given by artistic and socially prominent
woman not long ago which distinctly introduced
a novel way OF showing living portraits. The idea
which was due 10 the suggestion Of artist
who has always the courage OF his convictions
was TO show tabeaus in daylight In an ordinary
drawing room. Far from being crude and harsh.
as would be naturally supposed. the Illusion was
marvellous. In fact. II any one had entered the
room not knowing that living person stood in
the frame he would have taken the picture for a
fine old masterpiece.
The celebrated artist who produced this effect
and posed the picture obtained his really wonder
ful results in the following simple manner: A
shaded corner OF the room selected. and the
walls back OF a large gilt frame which placed
In an angle. were hung with black muslin. This
formed a sort Of box OF luminous darkness so 10
speak the sides top and bottom Of the space around
the frlme being drapei with rich stuns. In front Of
the frame was stretched a veil OF thick black net.
and this was all the preparation made or needed.
The rest OF the room was left in the usual every
day light. or all the artistic after effect
was due to the mastery posing and drapng, OF the
subjects the prettiest OF which a tiny, dimped
little infanta of Spain dressed In the quaint old
brocade worn by the little maids OF high rank in
tho time Of NelasQuez.
