cause her back is turned, showing re-
markably beautiful shoulders, tiny
bit Of chin and a quantity Of bobbed-ofi
blonde hair.
Does Not Like Bobbed Hair.
The interpreter Of children is not en-
thusiastic about the bobbed.of locks
and the big ribbon bow of the small
American girl. She displays great skill
ia rendering the texture Of the hair,
as may be seen in "The Robe de Bal
let" and also in the portraits of pref
ty and prim Hester, seven-year-old
daughter Of Lady Stephen Gatty; of
Betty Bliss and of Kate, aged eleven,
daughter of Mr.. John Prentice.
A dreamy looking, fair-complexioned
child is little Miss Prentice, with de-
liciously upturncd small nose, pout-
ing mouth and black eyelashes, con-
trasting strikingly with her blonde
tresses. Miss de Cordoba's remarkable
range of technique is shown in the
plates of two notable child portraits.
In the Bonnet de Hollande" there are
lines so exquisitely delicate that they
barely touch the plate, and in "Her
First Portrait" that of a baby girl,

subject OF one Of the most effective por-
traits ever made of an American child.
She is represented in the costume which
she wore as the Good Fairy in "The
Long-Nosed Princess" given year ago
at the home Of Mrs. Benjamin S. GUM
ness, Washington Square North. All
Of the fairies in that play arrived on
balloons, and in her portrait little Miss
Farquhar is holding The pair which
were supposed to have waited her,
1t is safe to say that, for the time,
she actually believed in the motive
power of those toy balloons, for she is
intensely poetic and imaginative. She
talks much of fairies, of magic, of a
castle which she is going to build and
of its jewel decorations. Her magma
tive drawings, in crayon, are most in
teresting. The first drawings which
she showed to Miss de Cordoba were
copies, but when told that she should
either imagine or remember subjects,
she thereafter worked on those lines.
Unusual and striking is the full
length figure of a little girl who is
peering into a japanese lantern. 1t
cannot justly be called q portrait be-

AS CHILD ETCHER.

there is depth and richness in the shad-
ows, which, nevertheless, are full of
light.
The suggestion Of movement which
Miss de Cordoba is able to get into her
portrayals OF childhood is nowhere
better eXemplifed than in "Sprngtimc. -
This etching represents twelve-year-
old Miss Mary Law, daughter Of Hugo
/ Law, an Irish Member of Parliament, as
| Spring, running forward with a spray
of cherry blossoms. Her perfect type
of Celtic beauty-dark hair, dark eyes
and fair complexion-is most effective
ly brought out by a landscape back
ground.
This wildly colored portrait Of
very young girl full of life differs
greatly from that of eight-year-old
Honor Boland, whose father is Mem
Der of Parliament for Kerry, Ireland.
Printed in ssnguine, the sole color note
is the bow of green ribbon restraining
Miss Honor's hair.
Baby Portraits Express Individuality.
Full of babyhood are the portraits
which Miss de Cordoba has made of in
fSnts. They express an individuality
which is startling to those who do not
realize how thoroughly in accord the
artist is with children. They interest
her more than anything else in the
world. Baby Brown, youngest daughter
of Congressman Lathrop Brown, dis
plays at sixteen months a surprising
amount of personality. But it is the
personality of dreamy, poetic nature,
and very different from that of her
energetic, capable, executive sister,
aged two and half years. As posed,
the elder of the Babies Brown" stands
with one finger commandingly raised
and with her other hand lifting the hem
of her frock.
An adorable type of babyhood is Cor
nelius Bliss, Sd, at the age of thirteen
months. Even then his features strong
ly resembled those of his late grand
father, the first Cornelius Bliss, who
died shortly after the infants portrait
was completed
Baby Bruce Crane, son of Senator
Murray Crane, very blond and with
very blue eyes, sits in a high chair and
eats a cracker. So very solemn does
he look that the printer in Paris
where the etching was printed-always
called that plate "Le Petit Juge."
Despite Miss de Cordoba's predilcc-
