LIKENESS OF THE PRESIDENT

The COrcoran Gallery of Art last Mon
day evening opened its second exhibition
of contemporary American paintings with
a brilliant reception and private view
and throughout the week there has been
large attendance of interested visitors.
That it is the best exhibition of the kind
held in this city, and one Of the finest col
lections of contemporary American paint
inss assembled here or elsewhere. seems
to be the consensus of opinion. And the
more carefully the exhibition is studied
the deeper is the conviction of it's worth,
for it wears eminently we'll and gener-
ously repays scrutiny. This, to be sure,
is much in its favor. for it is an infallible
token that the majority of works included
in its catalogue possess not mere super
fetal cleverness, but enduring merit.
OF the three hundred and ninety paint
ing, set forth in the exhibition about one
fourth are portraits and they especially
demand thoughtful consideration. The
greatest paintings of all time have been
portraits, so ii it is desired to measure
the strength of contemporary art with
that of past centuries a turn is made
quite naturally to that branch of paint
ing. Moreover. there is dual interest in
portraiture-the personality of the sitter
signifying as well as the skill of the ar

ant esthetic appeal, and at the
same time documents of character and
testimonials OF art, or at least SO they
should be; sometimes, however, one fac
tor predomnates and sometimes another.
Not infrequently, i'll fact, the two are
found to conflict likeness taking prece-
dence over effect, or effect over likeness.
Must Be Done Well.
A story is related of man who when
he comp aimed that portrait recently
painted OF his wife by q celebrated artist
did not look like her. was told by an un-
sympathetic friend that a hundred years
il did not; hence the fact that it had
been well done was of vastly more sig
nificance. This is of course. an exaggera-
ton. but il has in it the provcrbial grain
of truth. 4 portrait, if il is Il real work
