each other rs TO view the pictures.
when the artists went away for their
,unchcons the windows and yentilators
usre opened. fresh air was allowed In
and the blue smoke chased away. The
aoors were uewly polished. a band Of
musicians was introduced and suddenly
a., entirely different vanishing day vas

Exhibit Excesstvcly Tame.


The Academy is so excess vely tame
this spring. however. hat il; is to be
greatly feared that the masses who will
be attracted 10y free art will carry no
lasting impressions away from IL.
Judged by its wi standard II repre-
sents a falling of from what was shown
last spring and even from what was
exhibited last fall. Apparently the
jugy 10 protesting It's policy OF what
q safe and sane In art has protested
TOO much this time and cut out the
lively examples hat interest masses.
Fortunately one OF the prizes and the
place u honor in the Vanderbilt gallery
have been given to one Of the two con-
tributions ia the show that stand the
best chance Of being considered bear
able twenty years hence. This is Doug
lass Nolk's portrait of Dr. Felix Adler
which Won the Maynard prize and 81 ".
1t is a quarter length. a bust without
the hands. for which the canny English
painters In the palmy days of their por-
tralture always charged extra and
without being p~retentious or great is
nevertheless sound work. 1t is refined
and quiet. with something caught 10y the
artist from the intensity OF the sitter.
Had We such an institution here as a
national portrait gallery. n We GER
tainly ought to have one. such a work
would take a place in II as a matter of
course.
The second contributor whose work
deserves something Of the same COM
mendat.0n ami whose proGuct will no
doubt be- suffered to exist for another
generation is Rudolf Evans. whose
bronze figure of a girl IL we'll placed IN
the centre OF the small gallery. For
one thing he works In bronze. a lasting
material, except In time OF war. His
ngure Of n gal stands upright, her arms
hanging down and a gilded apple in each
hand. The composition is almost negli-
gable, The head has the slightest pos
conventional way is excellent. The pro-
portions amt the drawing are so true
that one might accuse the sculptor OF
having east ii from life. had he not
taken the ~precaut.on OF making IL n
iniie less than life size. and did we no,
also nov that female models them
selves are never in such good drawing
As this, II looks well and is drawn well
from every side. This OF course should
De said Of every bronze. but unfortu-
1ately II isn't.
Mr.. Evans made an especial success
10 the PARIS salon last spring with his
sculptures, and the American residents
Of the quarter were much pleased by
al the kind things the French critics
said Of his work. Evidently he Will re-
peat his success here.
