London Group Exhibits
In Manchester, England

The second exhibition in Manches-
ter, England, by the London group was
on view during the latter part of Au-
gust. The Manchester Guardian says:
whereas last December the exhibits
Of the decorative art group lent sup
port, on this occasion Spanish paint
ings by Gustavo de Maeztu are here to
satisfy the more conventionally minded
visitor. The London groups show sixty
one exhibits, Of which twelve are by
the brothers Nash-Paul and John.
The latter is proving to be the more
interesting Of the two. He is particu-
larly SO in his small wood engravings.
They show an admirable sense of COM
position and medium. Mr.. Paul Nash
continues in his now well known vein,
and seems to have become a recipe
craftsman. One Of these looks like q
scene in the tortured BATHS area of
France, but he calls it Early Spring,
Fulmer.' Therese Lessore has managed
to convey her depression at what she
saw in the Gallery at the Agricul-
tural HALF rather successfully. But
one wishes she had not. Mr.. A. P. AL
linson has skillfully painted the
Grampians and Scawfell under snow
But his deXterity leaves one somewhat
cold-though not in the way he realized
the meaning of the word while paint
ing. There is much sound work in his
portrait, The Black Dress but Mr..
Dickey, with his H. A. Spiers. ESQ.,
produces s better picture. Mr.. Bonn
calls Rocks Doubles and Pines
but the evidence produced is hardly
sufficient justification. The three most
famous members OF the group-Mr
Jacob Epstein, Mr.. Roger Fry and Mr..
c. R. w. Nevinson-do not exhibit.
"The paintings and drawings Of
Senior Gustavo de Maeztu make most
Of ths other works on exhibition seem
rather amateurish. Senior de Maeztu
shows fifteen oil paintings Of landscape
and figure subjects. His landscapes
and portraits are romantic and painted
with full technical equipment. The
largest painting 10 'Dwellers in the VIII
lage.' The competition is not very
happy. and the villagers should mot
seem unaware Of each others close
proximity. The allurement Of Fanny
Is we'll conveyed. The best Landscape
is perhaps Church of Lesaa.- The
charcoal drawings are noteworthy, and
their handling is mastery"

Reproduction of the Goya Painting of the Duke of Wellington

true to life. Goya, although he ad-
mired the masters work, never would
work by rule and rote and was often
given to impetuous moods which al
ways led him into trouble.
This explanation is necessary in
order to tell the story of the paint
ing of the dukes portrait, which,
as historians have recounted, was
never finished, owing to Goya's tenn
perament. He caused SO much dis
turbance in his native town during the
time of the professions, by rival pro-
cessions, that all agreed that it would
be jolly good thing if the authori-
ties put up the money to send him
to Rome to study, but Goya had made
so many enemies that no one would pay
his expenses to Rome.
What he learned in Rome was Of
great benefit to him. When he returned
home he accepted job at painting tap
estries, after which he was ready to
accept the post as assistant to Mengs,
the royal portrait painter. and it was
through that painter that the Duke of
| Wellington was induced to have his
picture painted.
! Now, the duke was the very antithe-
sis of Goya, and any sensible person
would have realized that portrait Of
the duke could never by any chance be
finished if Goya was the painter. The
Duke Of Wellington, after his victory
over Napoleon, was sent by the Brit
ish government to act as plenipoten-
tiary at the peace conference at the
Austrian capital. His uniform was a
beautiful one, and he thought that it
would be very niee to have a portrait
to hang in the palace which had been
given him by grateful nation for his
1 success at war. Goya worked very
quickly, and he had decided that he
would finish the work in few sittings.
He first made the two sketches which
afe so weA known and worked care
fully sketching the dukes head in
colors. The uniform was to be left
for anether sitting. He worked rap
idly, and as the portrait now shows, he
worked remarkably we'll.
Unfortunately the duke and he
started arguing, probably about the
war or about art, and Wellington, q
man who was accustomed to have every
one agree with him, insisted on holding
TO his argument,
Goya, who was quick tempered, over
come by his antagonism, hurled g plas~
ter cast at the dukes head.
Naturally Wellington left the room
and never would return to have the
details OF the uniform sketehed, and 60
it remains to this day.
Every one, even the descendan&a OF
the duke, believed the portrait to have
been destroyed. but by some strange
accident It was only stored away in q
garrse for many years before IL was
sold to first one person and then an

The reason it remained in ehseurity

The great portrait of the Duke Of

His "Cancionero" contains classified
examples of all traditional types OF
Spanish melody. He gives various
theories concerning the origin of the
"Cante Flamenco" the name given g
form Of Andalusian melody with free
rhythms and occasional intervals OF
less than a semi-tone. According to
one suggestion cantes Flamencos came
into Spain with the Flemings who came
from Flanders in the time of the EN-
peror Charles V. Another theory cred
its the tunes Of cante Famanco with
being Arab melodies from Africa trans
formed by Flemish gypsies.
PedrelPs examples of Catalan melo-
dies bear q certain resemblance to
Provencal types, while the Castilian
tunes appear to be more strikingly
Spanish in character, These are sup
posed to have originated in songs of
the Visigoths blended with Moorish
melodies. 1t is upon the music of
Southern Spain, however, which in
cludes the songs and dances Of Anda-
lusia, that most of the music instantly
recognized as Spanish is founded, and
in this music strong tinse of Ori-
entalism is readily diseernible.
Toners book is notable for excellent
examples Of Northern melodies, less
Oriental in character, such as melodies
from Galicia, stirring Austrian airs,
songs and dances of the Basque prov
inces.
New York had taste of Spanish
music in the winter of 1915-I6. There
was, for instance, "Goyescas," by the
unfortunate Enrique Granados, who
superintended its production at the
Metropolitan Opera House. Then there
was the dancing of Isabel Rodriguez.
But the most vivid manifestation from
Spain came year later. This was a
musical revue, "The Land of JOY" at
the Park Theater. Few who ex-
perienced the intoxication Of this en-
tertainment will forget its spell, or the
witchery of the gypsy, Doloretes, who
has since-alas! gone the way of all
flesh.

enthusiasm for the writings Of Blasco
Ibanez make itself felt in the coming

Spanish temperament, its intensity and
Indifference, hauteur and melancholy.
In certain respects the music awakens
memories Of Raoul Lanarra's extraor-
dinary opera LA Hubanera," which was
sung in Boston under the regime of
Henry Russell. In the first act there

to part with the painting, but were de-
termined to put their trust in an hon
est artist. They sought counsel Of
British official, who gave the name of
an artist on whom they could rely.
Now, the artist, too, had suffered by
the war, but, as artists all over the
world do, out of pity for these
English women he told them that he
would advance some money. They said
that they could not get on with less
| than 5000 francs. The artist hadn't
that amount, but they besought him TO
do his best He had some friends, who
lent him the money, and he gave it TO
the ladies. Although they said that che
portrait was valuable, at first sight 1t
was not prepossessing. Every month
the needy ladies wrote for money, and
were disappointed when o purchaser
had not beer found for the pictuEe.
The artist was losing heart, too, as no
one wanted to buy the picture, much
less give 5000 francs for 1t, yet he
hadn't the heart to refuse the beseech-
ing appeals for money.
Finally, when the sums had reached
$4,000 francs, the artist himself felt
that something must be done, as he
ran the risk of losing all this money.
It is true that he had plenty Of work,
but people paid slowly, and be couldn't
