Notable Landscapes in Oil.

The following from late issue of
the Boston journal refers to the work
of Mrs. Wyman, who spent several
weeks here the past summer as guest
Of Mrs. f. L. Brigham: AN exhibit
ton of % landscapes in oil by Minnie
r. Wyman, has been hung in the front
room of the Copley gallery, l03 New
bury street. This is Mrs. Wyman s
first Boston exhibition, and shows great
promise. One likes the sincerity of
purpose evident in the straightforward
manner in which Mrs. Wyman has
tackled difficult subjects and depended
upon her vision and power Of execution
to aid her. There is an utter lack of
aifectation in the execution. One can
readily see that Mrs. Wyman is so in
tent upon what is before her when she
paints that how someone else has treat
ed similar subject does not occur to
her. This honesty always counts for
good; it allows one to develop and
achieve a manner Of expression entirely
their own. Her picture, Old Covered
Bridge has been carefully observed and
is capitally drawn. Sunshine has real
sunlight in it, and her picture of shin
ing hills with autumn foliage have
beautiful passages of color. Holly
hooks and An Old Fashioned Garder
are very complete pictures. Mrs. Wy
man received her early training in the
Corcoran School of Art in Washington
She has also studied abroad and in New
y ork under Robert Henri.
