Pictures by Hugo Balm, Sam
uel Halpert and Others.

Most of the canvases which Mr.. Hugo
Rallin exhibits at the Montross gallery
are in the style which he has followed
from the beginning, a style suggesting
variously the old Venetian painters
stained glass windows and dimly light
ed rooms hung with tapestry. But
there are two pictures showing that Ge

two figures, is a delightful study in ST.
very green's and grays, and the nesl
painting instantly reveals the benefit
to the artist of emerging from cold
studio light. The nude in the other
picture, In Sunlight" is even more
conclusive on this head. Mr.. Balm
preserves all his wonted decorative
grace and makes his figure far more
interesting. 1t would be well for him
if he would continue in this path, turn
ing only occasionally TO the kind of
picture hitherto associated with his
name. That he should not abandon 1t
altogether is obvious enough, for apart
E.. IN the artificial SAVIOR in them the
numerous paintings in this exhibition
of the stained glass order are indubita-
bly, picturesque and handsome. He is
capable workman. His sumptuous
types and the Trailer, more gravely ro-
mantle figures he draws are modelled
and composed with a sure hand, and
he gets some rich effects of color out
of their draperies. Why, after all,
should an artist who paints pictures
like these so we'll do anything else?
No answer seems to be forthcoming
until you turn TO Summer" or I'm
Sunlight" Then it points clearly
enough TO the fact that the atmosphere
Of life is somehow more persuasive
than the atmosphere of the studio, and
promises in the long run a more SUBJ
stantial repute.
The new Daniel gallery, bravely pro-
ceedng with its programme Of indie
pendence, gives its second exhibition TO

Recent American Landscapes
and Figure Paintings.

The whole question Of what should
be done in the organization of a
miscellaneous show of contempt
rary pictures is commonly supposed
TO revolve around the problem Of
space. 1t is always blithely assumed
in some quarters that all you have to
do in order to solve that problem is 10
hire the biggest possible hall From
another point of view-which has stead
Nv been advocated in these columns
the matter Of space is almost negligible,
the real point being one of wise dis
elimination. If exhibitions are TO be
made on the principle of giving an OPP
portunity TO every one who can handle
the brush. with the generous view
Of dispensing encouragement then
ilimtable wall space should be Sc
cured. If, on the other hand, work IS
10 be shown only on serious grounds,
only 10 afford pleasure and edification
TO the public. then the hall may be
Of the most modest dimensions. This
reflection follows automatically upon a
visit TO such an exhibition as the one
now open at the Macbeth gallery, which
displaces. after the fashion adopted
there at the opening of the season, the
zone man" affairs of previous years.
Two rooms are filed with about thirty
paintings from seven artists, and, in
another an eighth has the walls 10
himself, because he has something spe-
cial to say. The enterprise is model
Of it's kind. These pictures might justly
remain on view for month instead Of
for a fortnight.
There is, after all, only one reason for
asking the public 10 look at picture.
The picture must be, in one way or an
other, worth while. Students work
should be shown only at the schools,
and the artist who is interested in
something he has done. because IT
suggests what / am trying for might
better show the piece TO his friends in
his studio. save in those rare instances
where a man is so gifted that even his
casual studies possess real signih-
canoe. real beauty. Th- pictures at
the Macbeth gallery are not all mas
terpieces. but they are. If the phrase
may be repeated. in one way or an
other worth while. Take, for example,
the group of five paintings by Mr. Ken
meth II. Miller. IL can hardly be said
that any one Of them authoritatively
reatizcs "A completcly convincing ideal.
But there is no mistaking the imagina-
tive quality OF this painters work, the
poetic feeling with which he attacks
his subject. the delicacy Of his color

even remotely Influenced by such
dreams as visit Mr.. Miller. But then
he does not pretend to any dreaminess.
II is enough for him to keep his eye on
the object, to be gay and clever Grant
him his unimaginative but not by any
means dull hypothesis and you cannot
but enjoy his decorative pictures. We
pass TO another painter, and again have
the eXhilaration of seeing an old prob
lem handled with a new felicity. The
figure placed before a window and
bathed in broken light is a familiar
motive with Mr.. Childe Hassam, but
never has he painted it with the GER
tainty and the charm belonging to The
Window Curtain" in this exhibition.
His color, brilliant as he always makes
it, is here wonderfully pure and trans
parent, and not only the color but the
form and the textures are painted with
beautiful suavity. The whole lumi-
nous scheme is fused into subtle har-
mOny. Mr.. Hassam sends three other
/ pictures, open air studies. and one of
them particularly we could i'll spare,
the delightful "Fisherman's Cottage,
| Gloucester" but if he had sent THE
| Window Curtain" alone he would still
nave made himself one Of the pillars
| Of the show.
The same thought is provoked by Mr..
Weir. All of his four pictures are good
to see. The very sweetness of nature
| is in his Spring" he gives us sin
gularly fresh impression in "A White
Oak" and we are interested, if not
wholly beGuiled, by The Plaza: Noe
turne" But these are illustrations of
Weir on the way. if we may so express
it. pictures of the sort to which refer
ence has been made above as justified
merely by the quality which distin-
guished artist is bound TO put into
everything he does. The remaining
member of the quartet, Pan and the
Wolf" is one of those full-rounded ;ri-
umphs which make an exhibition me-
mOrable. The classical sentiment is
there. to give the pictures title its
due weight, but into the landscape Mr..
Weir has poured all the emotion Of a
modern lover of nature. all the poetic
loveliness OF a scene relt as well as OBJ
served. The simple, even tone OF the
composition is KEPT very low. but it is
not sombre. And the artists technique
is splendidly adequate 10 his theme.

interested himself in the Post-Impres-
sionists. and that he has possibly sat,
figurativelc speaking, at the feet OF
CeZanne. He aims at the slmpllfca-
ticn of "A given subject but not at the
broad synthesis characteristic OF the
predominant schools in modern art.
Very rarely he would appear to see his
subject as a whole, as in THE Seine,
which, viewed from good distance IS
truthful and even an agreeable impress
sion But his fixed habit is rather TO
simplify the details and then assemble
them in a picture with that selt-con-
scious naivete which is one of the par
adoxes' Of Post -Impressionism. More
candidly described, his method savors
Of the crudity of Young Hopeful, peg
sing away without much regard TO the
rules of the game and achieving some
thing which looks like picture, but
ISN'T. 1t is odd to observe this imma-
ture note in Mr. Halpert's work, for not
only i'm The Seine" his one successful
picture. but in several of the others,
one feels vaguely that he knows some
thing about light and could draw eff
GENTLY enough If he chose to do so.
IT is to be supposed that at the bottom
of all these productions there is a
struggle going on for the mastery OF
some artistic principle, but we cannot
now divine what it is, and the exhibit
ton as it stands leaves us skeptical as
To there being anything very profitable
ir the upshot Of the fight. Here is
another instance of a painter trying
for"-what? In the face of his ra"
colors and his bald method, which does
or &c bring out the beauty in them, the
mystery remains a mystery. indeed, but
not one Of any great depth.
The French pictures at the Hodgkins
gallery are not, on the whole, OF very
great Importance, but they make
pleasant exhibition for those who APP
rreciate the light charm of the eigh-
teenth century. The courtly elegance
of Natter Largiliere and Roslin may
here be apprehended in fairly repre-
sentative examples, and there are some
capital little things by Lagrenee and
De Troy, the sketch by the latter for
well known picture on a larger scale
being perhaps the best bit Of mere
painting in the show. The specimen
CT Tranouesse delightfully."- revives the
sentimental spirit OF the time, senti-
mental but always animated by a GER
tain sound artistic force. Looming
amidst these bewitching trivialities
there is a full length portrait Of Cinq
Mars by Matthew lie Main, an impress
sive illustration of old French for
malism.
The Powell gallery shows a MUNGER
Of drawings in water color and other
mediums by Carton Moorepark. He is
good in his animal studies, spirited and
sometimes quantity humorous drawings
Of q sort which we have seen from his
hand before. He Is even better in his
water colors, which are new TO us.
These are studies made in Bermuda,
freely but firmly handled and particu-
larly excellent In color.
