preston, but with a kind of rude
virtue in him; Will Geiger and Emil

lusciously romantic Hans Meid. But,
for the rest, there are not many dis
tinctions TO be drawn.
The German touch is little blunt.
In broad view OF the exhibition one IS
inclined to recall an old witticism.
These artists have quantities of taste,
and Sol e of it is good. They are busy
with all sorts of technical experiments.
They draw freely and picturesquely.
But from the point of view of an old
master. like Rembrandt, or a modern
one. like Whistler. they know next 10
nothing about the possibilities of line.
The connOiSseur of the etchers art will
find little here to arouse in him n last
ing enthusiasm, though ne will ind
scores of things that are amusing and
have, technically, a passing interest.
Nor is the pleasing decorative motive
forgotten. Your adroit young German
is often very keen upon the original
and effective filling of "A given space.
But we wish that he cared more for
beauty and had a little better under
standing Of il; we wish that his work
had finer, more fastidious quality.
An exhibition trimming over, as this
one is, with energy and audacity
seems as though it must have under
lying IT some authentic inspiration
But after one has made due allowance
for the shock of the first assertive ana
even violent effect of all the unques
tionable ability displayed upon the
walls one is constrained to confess that
German graphic art is, at bottom, 4
rather prosaic affair. Grim realism on
the one hand and the deity touched
moroccan on the other may hold us for a
moment, but not for long i'm the alb
sence of the right elements of beauty
and style.

Mr.. Morgan's Pictures at the
METROPOLITAN Museum.

In the biography Of Mr.. j. Pierpont
Morgan his achievements in the world
Of affairs must inevitably fill the fore
ground. But public interest in him
will never be fully satisfied until some
one, in painting his portrait, has
brought out his traits as a collector.
At present little is known about them.
1t is said for example, that he has a
peculiar fdir for miniatures, and there
are stories of his returning home at the
end Of a casual walk with one or two
priceless masterpieces in his pocket,
collected" quite spontaneously and
with that personal emotion which one
feels on gathering a favorite flower
Anecdotes like these, however, do not
often come to light Only his close
friends and advisers. like Mr.. Fitz-
henry, know the precise range and sig
nificancc Of his different tastes. on
the other hand. it is pretty generally
understood that Mr.. Morgan. pursuing
works of art with genuine enthusiasm
for them. has never hesitated 10 seek
authoritative counsel. and has been
resolute in obtaining the right thing
even though at prodigious cost. In the
news that crops out relating to his vast
collection we hear much OF the millions
he has spent The important point is
that the millions have been lavished %

First and last he has been extraordi-
narily generous with his treasures.

again. in one department after an
other, you will come upon the familiar
label Lent by j. y. Morgan. In
London the South Kensington Museum
has in this way been placed heavily IN
his debt. Furthermore, on special oc-
casions, he has made special and al
ways important loans. Some years
ago. for example, there was a mem
rable display of miniatures at the
Bibliotheque Rationale. in Paris. The
present writer, seeking out i'm IT Inc
works Of Saint-Aubin, came with de-
light upon one case that richly CON
tributed TO his studies. The precious
pieces IL contained were there by cour-
tesy Of J. Pierpont Morgan. It is
typical instance having a fine signih-
canoe. II serves TO emphasize the pub
lie spirit which has eliminated in
stupendous gift to the American pco-
pie, the collection now finding It's per
manent home in the Metropolitan Mu-
scum.
II is entirely natural TO expect that
when the new wing at the Museum is
built and filled with the Morgan co!lcc-
ton it will present an unbroken array
of masterpieces. AS has already been
reported in The Tribune. thirty Of the
paintings are to be shown in special
exhibition next month. We have seen
many of them, and it is more than easy
10 take the rest on faith. 1t will he a
glorious company. We here repeat the
list, complete, save for one picture,
which is to be announced later:
