Solid wood furniture. painted. is
always suitable for the summer
porch. A satisfactory color to use
is gray. This neutral tone may be
combined with almost any color.
The pieces may be edged with
bright colors. such as emerald

Flowered cretonnes and chintzes
make a good showing. as cushions
and curtains. when contrasted to
sold masses of neutral coIors.
Other good ackground colors
which will bring out figured ma

A pleasing way to treat windows

These ivies can be trained up the

these serve two purposes. One

was divided into three squares. The
two end ones held ferns, while the
middle one was made of glass and
was used as a goldfish bowl. Fern
cries of reed. with reed bird cages
suspended above them are equally

A New York decorator describes
a sun porch which he has just done.

Has Original Durer.

An original pen-and-ink draw
ing by Albrecht Durer. signed and
dated 1918. is owned by Charles A
Whipple, 1880 Rhode Island avenue
northwest. Mr.. whipple. who has
an interesting private collection, is
the artist employed in the restora-
tion of the Brumidi decorations at
the Capitol. and probably to COM
plete the frieze in the dome. The
Durer picture measures about 90
by 30 inches and represents a man
on horseback. Armorial bearings
are suspended like a banner held
in the knights hand.
The drawing was acquired by Mr.
whipple about thirty years ago
from an Italian collector. and it
has never been published. Its au-
thenticity is established by Fred J..
Braendle. 5 Dupont circle. who is
an authority on works of art as
well as an unusual linguist. Mr..
Braendle is about to publish a COM
pilation showing the Lords Prayer
in more than thirty different Ian
guages. By a color system the
parallel words will be indicated.

the picture he seems to bear aloft.
Another important medieval art
work of Mr.. Whipple's collection is
a Byzantine portrait, believed at

years ago. The painting itself.

thin coat of plaster spread on
wood, dates back to the tenth or
early eleventh century, but its rich
coloring is well preserved, being in

By GERTRUDE RICHARDSON
BRIGHAM, PHI. D.

Gustav Guelich, a noted Swiss
artist who may also be claimed as
American. is spending a few weeks
in washington. Mr.. Guelich, who
Is of Danish descent on the pa
ternal side. paints in a brilliant
and original style which has been
compared by some critics to Frans
Halls in his portraits. The Swiss
has spent much time in Holland
and is possibly Influenced by the
Dutch temperament. but the i'm
preston gained from a variety of
his work is that he has created a
new style of his own, often somber
but always Individual.
Portraits, landscapes. genre pic
lures, flowers and still life are his
favorite subjects, with some pencil
drawings. The seriousness of life
seems impressed upon his subjects,
though the artist himself is full of
humor. In the portraits the eyes
are often haunting in their inten-
sity. Color plays an important
part and Is particularly conspicu-
Gus in his Moroccan figures with
their dark faces and bright-hued
garments. A native African, garbed
in purple with white tunic and
bearing a salver of green peppers,
entitled "Negre avec Poivres." was
reproduced with high praise in a
Swiss publication.
Many types which he has seen in
Washington interest Mr.. Guelich
tremendously. He is accompanied
by his father. II. G. Guelich. who
grew up in the United States. hav-
ing come with his parents fr,m
Denmark while a child. Afterward

rope when he was "a. There he

though he was born abroad and has
always lived there. mostly in Eng
land and Italy. Mr.. Guelich. after
studying in several German schools,
continued his art career in Rome
and Paris. afterward spending
much time in Holland and Switzer-
land. His work is always in oil
painting.
