as we have said, to dissect his artistic
individuality, but we may reltera1e
our appreciation of his sterling work

In the anteroom at the Folsom gal
lery Mr.. Alfred II. Maurer shows
couple Of paintings done some time
ago. when he was content TO lollo"
the familiar paths crowded by his con-
temporaries. Though there is nothlns
especially memorable about them, they
disclose a cleverness to which we have
not infrequently had occasion to pay
friendly tribute. But in the gallery
itself there are twenty-seven paintings
significant of the artists dedication OF

ing of the old cleverness in weller OF

is compacently announced as AN I'M

by two Of the English hierophants OF
the Post-Impressionist movement, ana
i'm one Of them Mr.. Roger Fry has TINS
TO say: "All art depends upon cutting
off the practical responses 10 sensa-
tions of ordinary life, thereby setting

bodied function Of the spirit; but in so
far as the artist relies on the assocl-

and pure. since romantic associations
imply at least an imagined practical
activity" quite so. But these lmpas-
stoned words, with or without the con-
text, are quite powerless to explain
away Mr.. Maurer's error. He ought
not TO have abandoned his early intel
llgible method. The pictures he pro-
duced through its exercise were never
masterpieces, but they did well enough.

scapes in this exhibition, glaring in
color and suggestive Of nothing so

surreptitiously raiding the paint box, do

Maurer should retrace his steps before

personal quality which is the best justi-
fication of the entire affair II was not
a bad idea TO wait until about ten
years after the artists death and the
dispersal of the great mass of work he
left behind him TO make this little spe-

can see the better now what staying

is the artists freedom from the ciich'

in travcrsing the exhibition of Twacht-

tackle the same subject under new con-

That is obvious even from 50 small

the ducal palace seen from San Gior-

exhibition OF pictures by Mr.. Charles
