time; the one is leaving, the other enter
ing the harbor. For the one which ar
rived number of friends had prepared
a great feast, and with clapping of
hands and great vociferations Of joy,
they celebrated her arrival, while the
one which was leaving received sighs
and tears. An intelligent man, who was
a spectator of what passed. said: "Here
quite the reverse appears to take place as
otherwise ought to happen. They re-
joice over the one which cometh and
feel saddened over the departure of the
other. What fallacy. Rejoice over
the one which is going on its voyage to
safety, and bewail rather the vessel
which is coming in, for she will have to
brave again the storms of an incon-
stant sea- The same application may
be made at the birth of man, while at
his death much grief is expressed. One
ought to weep at his. BIRTH because no
one is certain whether he will be able to
overcome the dangers and temptations
of life; whilst at his death one ought to
feel pleased if he only leaves good
name behind him. At his birth man is
entered into the book of death; when
he dies he is entered into the book of
life.

THE WISH TLOOK


An insurmountable limitation, by the
very nature of the artist s medium, ne
cessitates the anthropomorphc repre-
sentation of God As language in hymn
and prayer must say He and Him
of God, so the picturearts in all lands
symbolically employ the human body
Marduk, the sun-god on the Hammurabl
stele, sits on his temple throne; the
Venus of Milo makes ready for her
ocean dip; Pagan and Christian art
alike have mirrored the religious think
ing of age and people in their represen-
tations Of the highest deity, and the
noblest presentations have been-the hu-
man body
The decorations of the Sistine Chapel
ceiling by Michael Angelo furnish the
best examples of the solution of the God
problem in all art the figure of God re-
peated over and over again in that clas-
sic series does more than tell the story
of creation; it exhibits the power OF
man to grow in the thinking Of a great
idea, it is, veritable crescendo Of in
tensity, reaching the superb climax in
that venerable figure which, with out
spread hands, floats over the universe,
and looking upon his handiwork, de-
clares it to be good. This, Michael An
gelos type of Jehovah, must be con-
trasted with Hubert Van Eyck's mas
terly figure from the Ghent altar in or
der to appreciate its power and sub
Unity.
Of the moderns, the French artists
have succeeded best in the treatment OF
the Old Testament themes. Though
their works lack the reverent spirit
which is evident in every canvas of
Rembrandt, yet they have recognized
and expressed the universally Of the
human instincts and feelings, the time
lessness of the stories Of Genesis. Cor
mons Cain is an indelible sermon on
crime and it's punishment; Cazin's Ha-
gar and Ishmael is desertion, want and
despair; while the first funeral of Bar
rias never fails in it's appeal, because
there are fathers and mothers in all
days, who sympathze with the grief Of
Adam and Eve carrying off the body
of their child Abel
Surely these moments prove beyond
doubt that the study Of the interpreta-
ton Of the Old Testament by the Arts of
painting and sculpture is rich field,
producing better acquaintance with
the book, with the genius of the jew
ish people, and with the geniuses of the
brush and the chisel

is richer, larger and more powerful than
ever Adam, Cain and Joseph, Moses,
David and Samson merely to mention
a few of the many-these heroes OF jew
ish story form group about which the
artists powers have played from the
Catacomb draughtsmen S crude at
tempts at fresco on subterranean Roman
walls to the impressive tones OF SAINT
Saens' modern opera.
In this lecture we must confine our
selves to the plastic and the graphic
arts and for them one brief hour will
scarcely be sufficient for more than a
sketch of the extent and importance OF
the subject Looked at from the point
of view Of the arts, it seems that each
one lends itself well to the treatment OF
Old Testament themes. The Bishops
Chair in the Cathedral at Ravenna
shows the sixth century treatment OF
the Joseph story, popular in that day,
but it also shows that relief work in
ivory is a fit medium. The frieze SYM
bolioue of the Strasburg Cathedral tells
stories of Moses and Abraham, but it
also tells of thirteenth century employ
ment of our theme in fresco decoration
The capitals of the columns at the
corners of the Ducal Palace at Venice,
treating of the Judgment of Solomon
the Shame of Noah, Adam and Eve, and
the Sacrifice of Isaac, are essential
parts of the architectural design. The
great David of Michael Angelo adds the
unusual example of masterpiece on a
Biblical subject. used for the decoration
of public square.
AS a symbol Of patriotism, that David
figure in the square of Florence was
well chosen; but the David motif, as
used in the italian Renaissance, is pc
crlarly characteristic of the age and
merits fuller treatment. With few eX-
ceptiOns, every great master Of that
period has left us an effigy Of the young
slayer Of the Philistine giant; but it
were grave mistake to regard these
wonderful productions as the result Of
religious emotion or thought. The
wreath crowned boy of Donatello and
Bernini's barock stone-slinger were not
made from love of the hero of the Old
Testament; they resulted from the re-
newal of an ancient Greek ideal-the
love Of the youthful human body at the
age Of the sprouting beard. Through
Greek teachers, the old-time love Of Soc
rates for his Alcibiades, Of Pausanias
for his Agathon (read Plato's dialogue
Of Protagoras) was revived, and by the
fifteenth century artists attached to the
one Old Testament figure which lent it.

Picture of Sea in Angry Mood
Loaned TO the Public Library

A large canvas. the work OF Lucien
W. Powell. has been loaned TO the Pub
lie Library by Mrs. ]. b. Henderson.
and has been given a place on the wall
Of the west staircase OF the library at
the first landing.
The subject chosen for this picture by
the painter is a view OF the open sea.
For his composition the artist has de-
pended wholly upon bold outlines OF the
waves, for the sea Is depicted in one of
its angry moods, and the force Of the
waves and spirited action Of the water
give 10 the composition a force and
impressiveness that tell the story of
the power Of the mighty waves. and the
vastness OF the ocean In a dramatic
manner.
In the selection there is no suggestion
of a horizon, no evidence of a coast
line, or trace Of a passing vessel. The
picture is purely water and sky. with
the exception OF some low-fying guIls,
which are hardly noted in the general
effect. The sky is full Of storm clouds.
which are hanging low and shut of the
distance as with a curtain of storm. In
color there is much 10 commend and
while literal and truthful, the extreme
simplicity OF the subject, and the en-
phasis Of the anger OF the waves and
the immensely Of the ocean, is presented
In mastery manner.

Capital Camera Club Home
Undergoing Many Alterations

The Capital Camera Club recently held
special meeting for the purpose of
deciding whether. in view OF the pro-
posed improvements at 1910 F street, and
the probable interruption TO the work
Of the club during the period occupied
by the improvements, it would be ad-
visable to secure other permanent quar-
ters- After a full discussion OF the sub
tect OF removal, IL was determined that
while the work Of the club would to
some extent be hindered by the remod-
cling of the building, there was an unan-
imous disposition to retain the quarters
now occupied by the club. which were
built under the direction of the commit
tee on rooms in 1898
The contemplated improvements to the
building VIII not affect the rooms now
occupied by the club. The entrance
will be materially benefited by the
changes to be made In the building
and upon the completion Of the remodel
ing of the building the club will have
the opportunity 20 add to it's present
quarters a very desirable room. which
VIII serve the purpose of a library and
reading room, and thus enable the club
TO arrange for additional working room
in the present assembly hall.

EXTENDED SEASON
PEEASES ARTISTS
Exhibitions to Continue All
Summer in Buffalo and
Worcester, Mass.

The closing OF the art season with the
commencement of the heated term
seems TO be a custom founded upon the
theory that the artist from his intense
love of nature, departs from his city
studio with the passing of the SHOWS
and winters cold, and occupies the time
until the coming OF the Indictment
weather OF the autumn in a close ap-
plicatiOn TO study direct from nature
II art is solely for the artist. IL mat
tiers but little whether the artist works
amid the great sOlitudes of nature. or
the greater solitudes of his city studio
during the period when the well-to-do
and transient population OF a large city
are spending their time In the search
Of rest. health. or recreation.
1t is gratifying to know that in the
cities Of Buffalo, n. Y, and Worcester.
Mass, exhibitions are now IN progress
which VIII continue during the summer
season, and practically continue until
the opening of the art schools in the
fall. At Worcester. Mass. 164 pictures
have been placed on exhibition, and the
list Of artists represented includes such
familiar names as Childe Hassam. Hoo
ratio Walker, f. Luis Mora, Herman
D. Murphy. Edward w. Redheid Thorn
as W. Dewing, Charles Warren Eaton.
Albert L. Groll. William Keith. John
LaFarge. Charles II. Davis. Willard i.
Metcalf. Arthur Hoeber, Charles c. Cur
ran. Adelaide Cole Chase. and Philip
L. Hale
The exhibition at Buffalo is also rep
resentative OF the work OF many notable
American painters. Among the pictures
on exhibition are some which were
shownsin Washington last February at
the contemporary exhibition OF oil paint
ings by American artists. Conspicuous
among the pictures formerly seen in
Washington Is Surf" by Emil Carlson,
a large painting which occupied the
central wall space on the north wall OF
Gallery g. This is receiving In Buffalo
a high degree Of commentator. Among
other exhibitors at Buffalo are Charles

Even Washington is departing some
what from the early closing habit. The
Corcoran Gallery OF Art will remain
open this season on week days until
July 10, and Will reopen September %.
In former years it has been the custom
20 close the Corcoran Gallery July l.
and to continue the vacation period IN
III October l. Without attempting to
find the reason, the principal cause OF
congratulation is that Washington and
the visiting public will have nearly an
entire month more than usual 10 enjoy
the art works in the Corcoran Gallery.
