The Washington times., 1922-04-23

Tho history of this club, and it's
i. gradual development. is as fasci-
mating TO Victor Flambeau as the
story of the Barbizon painters of
France, who went out from Paris
and lived In Fontainebleau. or of
the Prs-Raphaelite Brotherhood of
Ens1and, which revolutionized the
whole British conception Of paint
ing.
And our landscape artists are
sven more interesting. for they
have done q unique thing-they
have continued their daily voca-
lions. the bread and butter end,
80 necessary, giving good service.
and In addition they have devel.
oped an avocation generally be-
heved to be only possible for the
leisured few. Besides all this. the
Landscape Club men are preserv-
ing for us the beauty Of our
Washington environs, they are
helping us to see II better. and
II is all about us, here and in the
suburbs. the most beautiful spots
I'm the world.
These mentor so far they
limit their membership to men,
though tradition has 1t that O

Sunday-are painting exceptional
pictures, they have the true spirit
of art, their work is inspired by
truth and sincerity. and many,
many more Washington homes
would be happier to have the
daily delight and companionship
of a picture from the Landscape
Club. Instead of buying a new
car, buy q new picture. Buy
both, and enjoy lovely landscape
scenes all the time.
LIKE ARTISTS OF OLD.
When our people as a whole
feel the need for art so that they
buy and appreciate such good
painting as we have here from
some of our own artists, then we
shall see Washington very rap
idly become the national art GEN.
ter, and eventually the world art
eentsr. The new Renaissance will
begin here, for that was the spirit
I'm old italy, when a mere hand
ful of F1orentine painters, most
of them poor men, awakened
flame of vision that has lighted
us until today. when we again
await a fresh CLEAN.
The Landscape Club of Wash.
tngton evolved in this way.
Nearly ten years ago one or two
solitary young landscape painters
used to stroll out on Sundays in
search of chance scenes of beauty.
A passerby would stop to admire
their work. -.
do you psint?" the artist would
ask. Wouldn't you like to join
us every week? We are men In
Government office. and are free
only on Sundays, when we make
excursions to study landscape sub:
jects."
so the club grew, a picked body
of tried recruits, who didn't hest
tate to tramp ten or fifteen miles,
fording streams, or spending all
day In the wet and cold of come
picturesque marsh, seeing Nature
at first hand.
