LA EXPOSITION

OPINION DE UN ARTISTA

En- su "Gufa de viajeros' del Hsr0I'
do da a conocer Bonafoux el juicio que
ha merecido al insigne artista espanol
don Agustin Querol la gran feria de
1900, que no es por cierto muy favo
rable.
El ilustre escritor opina que en- la
actual Exposition hay algunas eosas
.buenas, pero pocas, y ninguna buena.
Lo que mas le ha llamado la aten-
ci6n es. >. Ia torre Eiffel, obra de la
Exposition anterior.
La puerta monumental, q 81 juicio,
es una desdicha arquitect6nica, y un
mamarracho artfsticO, ridiculizado con
iusticia Dor los mismos franceses.
En- 10 que respeota a la Exposition
de BelIas Artes, la opinion de Querol
es muy iisonjera. En- escultura, como
en- pintura, Sc presentan obras sober
bias.
Una de las que mas le han llamado
la atsnoi6n es un grupo de Merci6, Gu
