The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1907-06-09
None of the Work Shown Is
More CreditabIe Than That
From the Brushes of tha'
Quaker City Group.
ESPECIALLY PLEASING
TO THE ASSOCIATION.
Practically All the Paintings
Have Been Hung and Every
thing Will Be in Readiness
For the Opening.

Although there will be representa-
tions of the work of famous artists the
country over. at the local art exhibit
which will open TO the public next,
Tuesday night, no pictures are more
beautiful or better done than those
from the brushes or Riehmond's own
artists. The paintings and art erea-.
tions from the hands of the Richmondl
group are absolutely the best that wilE
ever have been presented TO the admir-
ing gaze of Richmond people They
are excellent. and more thoroughly
represent the high character of the
work done than any of those ever sub
mitted to the local exhibit by the Qua
ker artists.
One of the choicest of the entire se-t
lection. although it is with much te-
merity that one can be selected over
the other. is the landscape painting, a
scene on Clear creek few hundred.
/.
picture is from the brush of J. +. Bum
dy. and is handsome one The coll
or blendings and outlines are exceed,
ingly well done. 1t is with much
pride that the local association is pre-
senting it. "A Spring Morning and.
Near Marietta, Georgia" are two OF
Mr.. Bundy's selections. He has two
other selections, however, which have
not been catalogued but which are@
very pleasing and credit to him.
Florence G. Chandlee has three
paintings listed. The Italian Boy"
is an excellent portrait. as are the two
paintings, THE Judge" and The
Scribe" Both of these pictures are
large ones and exceptionally well done.
Mrs. Eesemeyer's Work.
Mrs Maude Kaufman-Eggemeyer has
a water color landscape representing ~
rainy day on a street corner, which is
well executed. Her picture OF coll
ored woman, however. is by far the
best which she has yet submitted to-
the local association. 1t Is natural in
the extreme and all who have seen it
since il has been hung are praising II.
Early May October Morning" and
Shadows on the Snow" and Autumn
on the Farm" are the four
din. and to say that they are mosti
excellent is stating the matter but
mildly. The entire group is charac-,
teristic of his high grade work, and
shows the same poetic sentiment that
his other works. The
art association is particularly proud OF:
these three selections.
A. w. Gregg has three still lifes and
a picture entitled The Old King Home,
stead near Centeryille." All are finei
and particularly is this true of his
still lifes. They are exceptionally
well executed.
W. A. Holly has landscape. a fig.
ire. and a painting, "The Awakeningi
IF Spring" and an "Old Orchard" All
are well done and occupy conspicuousl
places in the exhibit, which speaks wells
'or their worth.
Alice G. Locke has three water coll;
,rs that are splendid. They certain-,
y reflect credit upon her. and her work.
along art lines.
Alden Mote has "Out i'm the Pas
ure" and HAY Afternoon" on exhib-
t and they do credit to the author
they are very well done, as are all
hose pictures which he has submittedi
heretofore.
Anna Newman has a portrait OF Dr..
David w. Stevenson that although
mall, is one of the pest portraits ever
listed in Richmond's Art associa-
ion catalogue. 1t is most excellent
LIKENESS. The portrait of her father,
-heodore Newman. Is well done. Her
ther two pictures are Mon Favori,
nd "Marigolds,'' all of which make a
Torthy group.
NJ. T. Nordyke has a number Of land
capes that are noteworthy.
A number of local artists are also
epresented in the class for sketches,
nd in other departments OF the ex-
ibit.
Paintings All Hung.
Practically all of the paintings for
be exhibit have been hung. 1t is con-
Identity predicted by those who have
lready seen portion of the exhibit
hat the hanging is the best that Rich
,ond has ever known. The work has
cen in charge Of J. f. Rundy and he
as arranged the pictures as he wouIi
onsfruet one. They are grouped well.
