Tuesday next. Chief among the sub
jects viii be a number OF his military
paintings since it was as a painter OF
war compositions. more particularly
civil war works, that his reputation was
won. But landscapes and genres, some
OF his more recent themes, will form an
important part OF the display. As a
painter of American military subjects
this artist ranked as high as the highest
in the country, and scarcely collection
of note was considered complete without
an example or his work. A number OF
museums also possess his canvases.
His pictures were noted for their sin
cerlty and the knowledge they portrayed,
for the artist in seeking to record the
truth did not shirk at illustrating with
conviction the horrors Of war, for he be-
lieved that II the world could know the
real aspect of battlefields without theat-
rical or staged effect their knowledge
would so far in abollshing the slaughter
and manning of men. Gilbert Gaul was
a realist, a thorough draughtsman and
colorist. and above all, aside from the
historical value of his work he knew
how to produce paintings Of quality.

every alcove there are groups OF

public that these OF the Independents

WORK OF ROBERT HENRI.

An exhibition in the Milcn Galleries
presents all the familiar phases of Rob-
ert Henri's art. There are one or two
nudes. one or two gypsies, one or two
Indians and some Irish personalities;
also some landscapes.
All have great ease OF execution. but
no great depth The difficulty would be
In living with them. One OF the most
attractive is tho MARY Of Connemara"
who wears an exceedingly sketchy but
pretty red waist, though her chin line
has been blurred unfortunately as though

nastics by flying finger.
La Rubia" will be considered one Of
Mr.. Henri's best nudes. La Tlubia has
flowing red hair and the 1.-the figure Of

dancer. The other nude, Helen"
has some true tones on the shadow side
of her thighs, but on the whole is not
so pleasing as La Rubia.
One OF the finest OF recent opportuni-
ties for the study of Rembrandt's su-
preme skill as an etcher is given by an
exhibition now open in the Knoedler
Galleries. Such impressive masterpieces
as the Christ Preaching" the Christ
Presented to the People" the Death
of the Virgin" and the portrait OF Jan
