H L. Woodcock of Belfast, one of
Names best known artists, gave an ex-
hibition of about 80 of his famous paint
ings at the Country Club last Sunday
afternoon. On account of the dull skies
the living room was darkened and the
lights turned on, giving an excellent OPP
portunity for many of his admirers to en-
Joy what they had long anticipated-a
good exhibit of some of his best work,
with the artist present to explain condi-
tons under which they were painted and
certain scenes, etc. Mr. Woodcock is
fluent speaker and has travelled extern
sively, which with his wonderful talent
is a combination rarely met with. All of
his pictures were framed in flat brown
frames, relief from the usual gilt. They
included marine and winter scenes of the
north ard several of the almost indies
crlbable scenes in tropical Nassau N. P,
where he has spent many seasons His
Nassau pictures are wonderful works of
art and his Belfast friends present hope
that this artist will in the near future
be able to exhibit in his home city.
