WhistIer's Portrait of Lady Meur;
Ne,O Paintings BY Tack and Others

With landscape he is always more or
less concerned, and there are several
instances of his activity in this direc-
ton n the present exhibition. They
arc not the best things he shows. They
begulle in intention rather than in per-
torrance. But the conception of land
scape at which he has been driving for
several years is beautifully realized in
the background of his most important
composition. the "Palace of Encbant-
ment," painted as an overmantel for
Greenwich House. In this, beyond the
colonnaded balcony on which figures
III renaissance costume are judciously
grouped, cleaning waters stretch be-
meath richly colored shores. The
scenery is mountainous but very gra-
cious. 1t is the landscape of the poet.
One thinks of types like Arnold Boeck-
In and Arthur Davies, painters who
nave strlven to recreate a world of
enchantment. That is what Mr.. Tack
has quite deliberately sought to do
The title Of his picture suggests as
much, but without the title we would
be equally clear as to his purpose The
thing has glamour, charm. Tech
nically, it is not fiawlessly successful
The rather pointilliste method adopt
cd by Mr.. Tack in this work is a shade
too asscrtive. A suaver touch would
lend a subter quality to the theme.
But perhaps in its place, seen from
greater distance this matter will adj
just itself. AS it is, the picture is
genuine achievement. 1t is surrounded
by canvases differing in manner but
resembling it in refined, winning
spirit There is an echo of Giorgione
in the "Three Listeners" costume
piece, which proves that the costume
piece need not be an affair of the
studio merely, but may breathe Of
life and feeling. econ Amore" is
again figure dependent to some OK
tent upon beauty Of investlture. but
painted with sincerity lifting it
above the "still life" plane of most
schemes of the sort. Everywhere Mr..
Tack atfirms a valid reason for paint
ing his graceful, decorative subjects.
They make an emotional appeal that
goes beyond the formal tone of decora-
ton. 1t is announced at the Kraus-
haar gallery that Mr.. Tack has re-
ceived Il commission to produce a
series of mural paintings for the new
Parliament Building at Winnipeg The
task finds him, this exhibition makes
plain, in splendid form.

PALACE OF ENCHANTMENT


In conception there is too much about
it Of the Salon tour dr. force. 1t lis
workmanllke, but has no personal quail
ity. Here, as in the drummer picture,
Mr.. Mclchcrs is the competent crafts
man, doing what might have been ex-
pected Of him. Where the show gives
pleasure is in those things which we
imagine him doing simply because it
amused him or because the subject
caught his imagination.
The best example is provided in the
picture called cold Virginia." the por-
trait Of some tumblcdown place in the
South, in which the shiftlcssness Of
broken walls and general dilapidation
~ softencd and made even charming by
artiesg pjcturesqucness and the play
Of sunny LEAKAGE. How lovingly and
how spontaneously Mr.. Mclchcrs has
painted this! All the hardness OF his
portrait Of the drummer disappears.
He painta simple, homc]y truth, paints
1t with seeming casual care!essness
beneath which a searching accuracy is
deftly concealed, and in the upshot he
obtains an effect Of beauty. All through
the show he is most persuasive when
he uses this unconventional method,
and, as we have limited, he wanders

ideal companions in an exhibition.
Both are adequate in technique. Both
have an outlook upon nature which is
BEAUTIFULLY resolved upon keeping arti-
fee in its place. There are moments
but they are only moments-in which
VIC suspect Mr.. Davis of having his
eyes perhaps too affectonately upon
effect" We look, for example, at his
most ambitious composition, son the
West Wind" and even while we are
admiring the grand sky, it's beauty of
form and color, we find ourselves won
dcrlng il art is not little more evil
dent than nature in the thing. The
artist, we seem to remember, has made
this kind Of picture before, made it very
well, but always with the suggestion
Of having leaned upon formula to do
1t. But then we turn to the real stuff
Of the show, to Mr.. Davis painting as
Mr.. Melchers has painted, out Of sheer
love Of the process, and in certain Of
his paintings he Ii successful beyond
even his own clever habit. Take, for
example, the Return Of Spring" As n
portrait Of the American countryside
this Is q positive triumph. Pattern, ms

Sea and Land

Our good fortune this week still
holds when we come to visit the Mac
beth gallery, where the one man show
Of the moment is divided between two
artists, Mr. Paul Dougherty and Nh.
Charles II. Davis. They are both re-
freshingly free from the disposition
to repeat themselves in popular pat
terms. For Mr.. Dougherty this freedom
must be, we gather, peculiarly difficult
He has an interesting composition
Such an interest, for the marine
painter, is rather hard to adjust to the
nature Of his subject. To harness the
surf to pictorial design is back
breaking task. Comfort lies, doubtless,
in casting pictorial design overheard
and concentrating upon the particular
matters in which one excels. 1t is Mr..
Dougherty's special merit that he sue
ceeds in approximating to the golden
mean. We say "approXimating" for
he never quite attains TO the compost
ton which characterizes, say, a master
like Winslow Homer. Homer could re-
produce the immemorial sentiment of
tho New England coast in one of his
studies Of storm and at the same time
give it, in design, the freshness, edge
and permanence of a new-minted coin.
We can imagine Mr.. Dougherty some
day drawing nearer to his sta ndard, in
vesting each one of his sea pictures
with a more individualized sgnificanc.
But at present we are grateful enough
for the truth and beauty with which he
paints the movement and weight Of
translucent waters, brings the salt wind
into his scenes, and altogether revves
the tang of the sea upon canvas. And
as he does this his composition is al
most but not quite unstudied. The wild
beauty Of the sea is never subordinated
to pattern, but something Like pattern
is always there; we get a good picture
as we'll as a good Impression,

Mr.. Melchers at Play

FIR. Carl Melchers, at the Montross
gallery, conveys an impression similar
to that which we have received from
Mr. Tack. The ability Of this artist it
has been easy to take for granted, but
never before has he so happily dis
closed it as something more than the
means Of making pictures. He plays
with it upon this occasion, painting all
kinds Of pictures as though for the
sheer pleasure Of putting color upon
canvas. There are, it is true, one or
two full dress performances in the col
lection of sixteen pieces, but these are
not, as it happens, the most felicitous
things Mr.. Melchers brings forward
The big full length portrait of mill
tary type, Drummer First Royal
scots,' is of greater military than ar
tistic interest. The gorgeous uniform
is in no wise generalized. Every one
OF its details. every note of color in it,
is given full value, and the result is
too literal, too hot and hard. The
young Woman at Her Toilet" in a
lesser degree, is likewise disappointing
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-02-02

far and wide. There is a bewitching
study of light, atmosphere and color in
the Summer Cottage" subject suffi-
GENTLY "groomed," and then in con-
trast there are notes of landscape,
brushed in with the directness and
haste of memoranda, swift but true.
There are flower subjects, sparkling in
color. There is a marine, "North Sea-"
which we would call Whistlerian in its
delicate harmony if it were not that it
had the robust forcible quality pecu-
liar to Mr.. Melchers. There is a bold
bit of still life, watermelon" q little
harsh in tone, but technically a dashing
piece of work, and finally we would
cite "The Hermit" the best of the
figure subjects We have noted the
rather too sophisticated character of
the young Woman at Her Toilet"
There is the same Fictitious air hang
ing about the Laughing Nude" and,
on the other hand, the artists easy
adroitness seems to fail him in one
or two other ventures with the figure.
But not so with "The Hermit" Here
his skill is exercised with an engaging
custo. The type has interested him.
The pose is enforced. There is moth
ing forced about the color scheme,
which seems to match unaffectedly the
facts of the case. And the whole thing
goes" with brio and authority. Nh.
Melchers has rarely done anything to
beat this unpretentious sketch. Of
his exhibition as whole we may re-
peat that he has never made so eXhila-
rating an affirmation Of his individual
ity and talent.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-02-02

But what he has that is best of all is
local sentiment, the grain and texture
of such pastorals as only our own
country can claim. With this racy
truth he has originality, strain in
him that is not perhaps markedly pow
erful or in any way significant of a
strong creative impulse. but that is
fresh, personal interesting Decidedly
he keeps the current standard of the
one-man show at high level.

Romance and Decoration

in this season Of one-man shows
and the galleries are constantly full Of
zhem-we are confronted by lottery
in which the chances Of drawing q
prize are not, to tell the truth, always
encouraging. The trouble with this
hind ST exhibition is that it too often
illustrates temperament that has, 20
TO say, Digeonholed itself. The more
successful an artist is the more dan
ger there is that he Will repeat him
self. The one-man show is frequently
but a collection Of stencils AT the
moment We are lucky, and perhaps
iuckiest Of all in the exhibition TINT
FIR. Augustus Vincent Tack is making

would attribute TO him the status Of

yigtas. His last year's exhibition was
better than it's prcdecegsor, and this
one Is the best Of them ala. II is not
that Mr. Tack docs not know hig craft.
On the contrary, he knows it very we'll.

Tie Arlington Galleries have placed
on exhibition selected number of
paintings and miniatures by Nicolas
S. Macsoud. Mr.. Macsoud, born in
Syria, naturally has a fair for the
East, and most of his canvases are of
camels, pyramids, deserts and Eastern
interiors. A large painting entitled
Meeting of the LLAMA" is one of eigh-
teen which were exhibited at the Pan
amaPacifc Exposition. The scene rep
resents a great hall in noble Mahom-
etan residence, with the Ulama
(learned mem sitting around listening
to their host reading the Koran.
Through the entrance TO the harem a
yelled woman is seen peering while
handing coffee to the eunuch in wait
ing. Mr. Macsoud is, perhaps, more
happy in his miniatures than in his
large canvases. which appear a trifle
labored In his "Ship of the Desert"
however, he achieves certain dra-
matte effect of camel and rider fly
ing before an approaching sandstone.
