The Enchanted
Places Of Italy

In 1905, when Mr.. Charles Latham
published in two handsome volumes
his beautiful photographs Of Italian
gardens, the text supplied by Miss Eve
syn March Phillips, made but slen-
der accompaniment TO the illustrations
Now this work is issued again by
Charles Scribner's Sons in a single
stout folio, THE Gardens OF italy,"
which makes in every sense a book a
distinguished from collection Of pho
tographs. MI Arthur 7. Bolton, who
edits it. explains in preface that
about $50 new photographs have been
added, and that while Miss Phillipps's
text has been retained he has provided
architectural notes throughout has
written number of new chapters and
has assembled a considerable company
of plans. These last mentioned draw
ings vastly increase the serviceab blcness
of the book to the architect and stu
dent "The Gardens of Italy" is now
practical treatise We welcome it
as such in view Of the marked growth
Of landscape architecture in America,
but we confess that the charm of the
book lies, too, in sheer glamour. 1t
unrolls a panorama Of ancient beauty
and, thanks to Miss Phillips, the
"silenzio verde" of Carducci's exquisite
line is peopled with the romantic fig
ures BETTING these lovely places.
Apropos of the Palazzo Colonna and
the Villa Borghese, for example, the
author recalls a famous lady who knew
them both, the ill-starred Maria Man
cini. "Six weeks after her first sons
BIRTH" we are told, "she received visi-
tors sitting up in a wonderful bed
made like golden shell supported by
seahorses and with little Loves holding
back curtains of cloth of gold. She
herself was dressed in fine lawn and

caught up with cd fms and a necklace
by Benvenuto Cellini himself around
her throat" 1t was this heroine of

Some Good
English Portraits

1t seems natural to turn from Re-
naissance Italy to the eighteenth GEN.
tury in England There is collection Of
the Reinhardt Gallery Of eight or nine
portraits which beautifully illustrate
the later period, recalling It's graceful
elegance, its suave formality. They give
US an echo Of that same courtliness
which iourished in the gardens of Italy
They give us also, as it happens in this
instance, some very coed painting. Wit
ness, for example, Hoppner's Miss
Bover,' the portrait of the prettiest of
women in the prettiest of lace hoods
This is a piece Of technical virtuosity.
and as limpid, as sparkling, as it is
powerful. There is another Hoppner in
the show, the handsome three-quarter
length Of Came, Countess OF Sheffield"
The bewitching face is set against
dark background of trees Though the
portrait has some feeble passages, it is,
on the whole, a fine work. The early
Gainsborough, "Miss Baker" is inter-
esting IN It's crisp drawing, but its
quaintness is about all that really tells.
There is no hint here of the "featheryo
magic which he was afterward to de-
velop. There are two portraits by Sir
Thomas Lawrence, brilliant things
painted more freely and with q fuller
brush than we recognize In his usually
sleek canvases, and there Is q remark
ably good specimen of that accomplished
pastellist, John Russell. Two portraits
by Sir Martin Archer Shee carry them
selves well enough in the gallery. The
group is rounded out by Gilbert
Stuart, Mrs. Luke White and Child"
which more than holds its own alongside
Hoppner. Romney, whom it strongly
recalls, could not have bettercd this
beautiful painting.

Women Not Really Musical
They Are Naturally Mechanical,
Saws British lecturer

LONDON, Feb. 2S.-women are nat
urally mechanical, therefore no woman
is really musical, contended j. Swim
burne in an address before the Musical
Association in London the other day.
"It is commonly believed that wom-
ems brains are just like mems and that
they can do everything that men can
do just as WELL" he said. "The as
sumption is quite unfounded. Women
are nowhere in science, although
scientific training has been open to
them for more than generation.
"The cultivation of music by women
hinders the development Of the art
One effect of the supposed musical
gifts Of women Is that girls are taught
music while boys are neglected in this
training"
