There is an unusually variegated
quantity Of things 70 be seen in the
galleries just now. We have already
traversed some sufficiently contrasted
works. old Chinese paintings and mod
ern color prints. and still the calendar
is far from exhausted. One excursion
70 be made away from the beaten track
takes Us, as seems natural, too, in the
direction Of the Photo Secession gal
lery. Evidently the new STRINGS there,
which offered Us, not long ago, some
primitive African carvings, is 10 be
continued. Mr.. Stieglitz has now on
view a number OF recent drawings and
paintings by those luminaries OF the
"Armory" world, VI. Picasso and W.
prague. and with them he shows some
archaic Mexican pottery and carvings
in stone. The relation, of course, is
obvious. Equally, of course, we are
grateful for these dips into antiquity.
but must confess 20 receiving with
more pleasurable emotions the an

An interesting innovation has been
made at the Anderson galleries. EX-

been exclusively of things sold at auc-

Rod, pictures are also shown which are

one of the upper rooms there are a
number of Dutch. Flemish and Italian
paintings from an English private col

Gus among these old masters. They
