Exhibits a Rossetti.

In the art galleries of Mr. Fischer in
Fifteenth street, there has been ex-
hibited privately TO artists and art low
ers, rather than to the public. a notable
painting by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, the
leading painter of the pTe-RaphaeIite
school. The subject Of the pa:nting-
The Lamp of MemOry-is one of the best
examples OF the school, Of which this
painter was a conspicuous member. The
composition is OF the imaginative char
ing an ancient lamp, conveys 10y the
expression of her eyes the leading
thought Of the artist. In graceful lines.
in beauty OF form, and of color, this
work appeals strongly to the love or
beauty OF both the objective and sub
jective qualities. The picture is also
memorable, liz that IL was the only pic
