The Macbeth gallery, having already
made good record in the matter of
exhibitions this season, saves it's best
effort for the last. 1t presents col
lection of American pictures which are
not only interesting in themselves, but
which, taken together, have an uncom-
monty instructive significance This is
a comparative" show, which is to say,
that the men in it are represented so
far as possible by works of their early,
middle and late periods. The light
thrown on the development Of this or
that personality is entertaining, and,
incidentally, it turns the observers
thoughts into the realm of general
ideas. From the experience of the in
dividual one may divine something of
the nature of one of the most fascinat-
ing problems in art, the problem of a

which illustrates his impressionism
with imagination superadded There
are definite steps and transitions, as
Weir and Twachtman remind us. in
the progression made by some artists.
These steps are taken largely under
the pressure of spiritual transforma-
tions. Men paint better pictures as
their natures gain in stature, as magi-
nation grows richer and mellower. as
thought grows deeper. But there are
types in which the gain seems almost
entirely matter of practice in man
ual deXterity. The better picture
comes not so much because the artist
has nobler vision, as because he uses
his instruments with greater ease. Mr.
D. Francis Murphy, a s a type, lies some
where between the two extremes. The
contrast between his early and late
landscapes is one indicating that to
some extent he sees nature more emo
tlonally as time goes on, but. even
more, uses his technique with greater
breadth. The increase in breadth is
almost exclusively matter of tech

exhibitors here, Mr.. Carlson and Mr..

imaginative in theme, has heightened

reallst with imaginative impulses, is
merely clever brushman in his picture
of 1902, "Fisher Boys" "The Prim-
roses,' a figure piece dating from the
present year, exemplifes the advance
he has made by refining upon his
method, struggling toward an ideal of
beauty. That, nominally, is the goal
OF every man represented in this exhi
bltion The artist, as artist, is sup
posed to be dedicated to beauty. But
the lesson of the show is the ancient
lesson that, while many are called. few
are chosen, and that personality holds
the answer to the riddle.

Method is the servant, not the master
Beauty is the great solvent, the
element which more than any other
fixes the artists rank and makes his
title clear. Yet, paradoxically, it is
the element which gives a picture at
mosphere and envelops it in mys-
terry. The hardest types to define are
those in which it dominates the most
triumphantly. Mr. Dewing's develop

been with him so long and so con-
sistently maintained. The formation
of that alliance is a little easier to
