Paintings, Drawings and Prints
Michael ANGELO.

Two exhibitions on fairly large
scale are impending. On December 10
the collection of 100 paintings from
Sweden. Norway and Denmark which
have been brought over here by the
American Scandinavian Society will be
placed on view at the American Art
Galleries. Four days later the Winter
Academy will be opened at the Fine
Arts Building. Meanwhile there is
plenty to see at the smaller galleries.
Prints are much to the fore. At the
Keppel Gallery there is a selection OF
etchings by Rembrandt. At the Boyer
Gallery there may be seen a quantity
of American wood engravings, includ-
ing pieces by Juengling, Cole, Kruell,
Wolf, Linton and many others. 1t Is
particularly good idea to pay attention
TO the American school of wood en-
craving. Its vogue was seriously
diminished when the halftone and the
three color process came upon the
scene; but the art has fortunately
never quite died out with us and the
collector is still interested. At the
Folsom Gallery there is an exhibition
Of sculptures by Ernest w. Keyser, and
another of clever amusing water colors
by Josephine Paddock. The gallery of
the Mcdowell Club is filled with
paintings and sculptures by Karl An
derson, Gutzon Borglum, D. Putnam
Brinley. Anna V. Hyatt and others.

The American Artist and His
Thumb Box.

There are two shows at the Powell
Gallery. One of them is devoted to
number of pastels done last summer at
Capri by Mr.. George R. Barse, jr He
is a skilful workman. His portraits Oh
Southern types are well drawn and
modelled, and his villa subjects,
sketched always from a good point or
view. are full of sunlight. His touch
is satisfying in its easy firmness, on
the other hand, he is perhaps a shade
too adroit dealing in crisp staccato eff
fects which sacrifice charm to eXecu-
ton. One cannot help wishing that
impressions of material so romantic
might be a little less sophisticated in
style. In a larger room at this place
there is an exhibition of thumb box
sketches by American artists, collec-
ton so large that the visitor is, for
moment. somewhat dazed.' These bits
of color vary greatly in value. good
many of them are rather amateurish
affairs and in others the casual spon-
taneOus note is attenuated almost to
the vanishing point But it is worth
while to search through the mass.
Here and there you come upon the old
hand, upon the experienced craftsman
like Mr. Edward Gay, ana he gives you
within a space bounded by few inches
a really delightful and authoritative
glimpse into nature. There are some
appealing fragments Of figure paint
ing in the show and there are some
studies of animals, but it is in land
scape that the collection is richest.
These are unpretentious, inexpensive
little works, in adequate but modest
frames. They are exactly what is
wanted at the holiday time. The
writer's and orators who are forever
urging that American art be supported
are prone to suggest elaborate and even
imposing ways of carrying out this pur-
pose. There is no better way of help
ing the American artist as he deserves
TO be helped than by buying his pict-
ures. and on an occasion like this one

ART IN THE BALKANS
Some Servian Foreshadowings
of the Present War.

The peoples to-day engaged in fight
ing the Turks are scarcely thinking of
aesthetic things. But in their art some
Of them, at least. have been thinking

ton to this fact Abiding to the battle
of Kumanovo and the subsequent
entrance Of the Servian army into
Uskiib, the ancient capital Of their
race, from which they had been
driven five hundred years ago, he
says that there are some who
saw the Servian pavilion at the inter-
national exhibition last year at Rome
to whom the news came not only as d
great event but as the fulfilment of a
prophecy." The point is thus interest
ingly developed:
The unforgettable thing in that exhibit

It would not be pleasant to hear that
Mr.. f. Hopkinson Smith had stopped
making his water colors Of scenes in
Venice in France and in Holland. by
some miraculous process he paints
these pictures year after year with as
fresh a spirit as that which he first
took with him on his holidays abroad
more than quarter of century ago

of his wreaking itself on other themes,
