A characteristic group of paintings
by Martin Mower is now shown at the
Enrich galleries, where they make a
charming contrast to the Spencer Pryse
group of war Autographs exhibited up

vergencies in technique; .Fencer-
Captain w. II. r. is painted low in
tone and with much care, while GLASS
Day" is flicker of paint giving vivid
impression of brilliant sunshine, col
orful figures and Chisese lanterns
swaying IL the breeze. Evelyn" also
is cleverly painted in a subtle color
scheme Of pink, green and gray, and
The Dancing Glass;" group Of small
figures in great gray room, is per-
haps one of the best canvases shown.
A large pastel, Hunt Club" has the
same qualities as the paintings, vivac-
ity and rich color. Two formal flower
pieces designed for seventeenth CEN
fury room have been loaned by Win
throp Ames, Esq, and charming still

In the paintings by Sander Landau
now shown at the Babcock galleries
the artist strays from realism, as in
Spring Fantasy and "Morning Light
on Pearl Blossoms" to the fantastic
and imaginative, as in "Abide With Ne"
showing Christ in purple aura beside
wounded soldier, and "Supreme Com
passion" rather theatrical in effect.
Ancient Expresses, Rome" however,
has certain decorative design which
makes one wish the artist would be
content with painting the delightful
truths Of nature rather than the fam
tastic imaginings of religion. "Moon-
light Night, july" has the calm
beauty of etherealized landscape, and
Spring Dance, Proserpina," is painted
in mood OF gay abandon. Mr.. Lam
