The Schwartz Gallery Is showing .

and agreeably handled. though not al.
ways convincing. Across the Valley
is a pleasant winter view. The Old

winter sunlight. The best things shown
are the nine little dark hued sketches
with brown mats, which are hung low,
below the other pictures. They are
done with spontaneity which some OF
the larger pictures lack.

why more portrait painters DO not do
this. The unusually high general
excellence OF the group is slightly
marred By the too dark pencilling OF

defect. The Goupil Gallery, where

The Enrich Gallery has now on er-
hibition q large collection Of the work
OF Marie Zimmerman. II consists OK
a goodly number of pieces OF jewelry
and many other specimens OF metal
work. A great deal Of the iewelry Is
of the most obvious description, such
as one might find In any fashionable
shop on the avenue. Again, when II Ia
unusual il fairly shrieks az the be-
holder. There are pieces which no one
but an Oriental princess OF giant pro.
portions might wear with impunity. OF
this kind is a large piece Of pierced
green Jade, from which are suspended
several festoons of tourmaline beads OF
various colors. Several silver boxes are
shown with handles or ornaments OF
carved jade and precious stones. They
are merely gorgeous, not beautiful or
even sumptuous. There are. however,
some door knockers OF wrought bronze
which are in good design and workman

bronze and crystal branched candle
sticks. The finest thing shown, things
which are worth visit. are the bowls

inspired by the Chinese, and set on
carved lakewood stands. There are
large number Of them, each one more
charming than the one before.
