Wyatt, Lady Lee which was formerly

Henry wyatt and a sister of Sir Thomas
Wyatt the poet. 1t has been recorded
of the latter that from 1929 to 1880 he
was High Marshal at Calais. and in 1888

A TRANSFORMATION.

The development Cf a really vitalized

observer. are in 10 wise surprising or
perplexing. When an artist has the prin-
ciple Of growth in him his adventures in
experiment have an obvious validity and
are I'm fact. full Gi an eXhilarating in
terest. This is the case with Mr.. Henry
Golden Dearth. Some years ago. when
he first figured I'm the exhibitions, his
pictures were in harmony with the cur
rent modes of painting broadly executed
In more or less romantic vein. He in
terpreted landscape sentiment I'm rich yet
restrained tones. Then he took TO max
ing the kind Of picture that is strongly
dominated by a given key. the picture
that is all modulations of green or rose
or gold. The result was certain arti-
ficiality of effect but while Mr.. Dearth
appeared to have lost some ground. 1T
vas still apparent that he was man of
ability. Now his art is passing through
third phase and undergoing a COM
pIete characterization. Inc SENSE "a

But he seems to have been embar-
rassed by the transition and not yet to
have found himself. Two or three OF
these pictures. coast scenes. In which
sea and sky give him simple and pure
masses OF color with which to deal, con-

In them nature is accurately observed
and portrayed with some charm. More

h,n 20 the rank Of a classic. The eclec-
tic always has to pay a certain penalty
for his acouisitiveness. That Mr.. Strang
pays II is a fact which cannot be ignored.
But a strong man can carry handicap
and still win race. That is what Mr.
strang has done.
The late Alphonse Legros was his mas
ter. forming him not only in method but
in spirit. The merest glance over MS
etchings will show that he has also sub
mitted himself TO other influences, 10
those OF Millet, Van Dyck. and divers old
Italian masters. There are figure pieces
OF his. like "The Bather' or the Britain
MIA" which recall the large, abstract
dignity Of antique sculpture. In land
scape like the Ruined Castle" or an
other such as THE Tower" he is as ro-
mantle. as a painter Of the Barbizon
school, and then, again, in such plate
as the Despair" he uses the realism OF
a Callot heightened by psychological
poignancy altogether modern. There
YOU have something Of Strang's secret,
something of his wide-ranging curiosity,
his thoughtful interest in life, his trans
mutation of what he sees into compost
tions now purely aesthetic in their ap-
peal and now burdened with an almost
painful stress. on his lighter side he
has a purely sensuous delight in form.
