preston as these three distinguished eteherS
OF all three, John Taylor Arms Is undoubtedly
the most skillful technicians producing pure
etchings Of 50 fine and perfect quality that
his colleagues declare 1t miraculous.
Writing Of his work, Mr.. Arms once said: "I
think the first duty of an artist seriously taking
up etching is to devote himself to mastering,
In so far as mastery Is possible to him, the
technical aspects Of the medium. Only when
he has done this can he hope to produce work
which will do justice to the conception he
wishes to set forth on copper. have struggled
for years to overcome the difficulties peculiar
to the craft Of etching, and 1t Is only now,
after considerable experience, that I realize
the limitlessness of the field and the scant hope
there is for me ever to attain technical &C.
complishment sufficient to enable me to say
the thing feel as feel it." But the real un-
derlying purpose with Mr.. Arms and his col-
leagues Is something more than technical
achievement. "I have drawn and etched build
ings," he says, 'for many years and in many
lands, and SO always will the love of them be
the force which viii impel me to go on etch-
ing" Only by feeling deeply and by endeavor-
ing to express oneself with sincerity cen
great end, he believes, be achieved.
Since 1924 Mr.. Arms has devoted himself
almost exclusively to etching cathedrals and
churches Gothic architectural monuments rs
there anything" he says, 'in the world more
poignant In its beauty than the facade of
Chartres-the truest house of God that was
ever built?" No wonder that with this feeling
he has been able to etch such plates as Lace
in Stone" the facade of Rouen Cathedral
(Which, published at $50, now brings $165),
or Gothic Glory" Sens Cathedral. How de-
lghtful are his two etchings of gargoyles, PEN
seur de Notre Dame" and 1.-The Gothic Spirit"
the latter by etchers declared to be one of his
best.
Most recently Mr.. Arms has completed a
series OF Italian etchings exquisitely reproduced
as illustrations for his wife's book, "IIill Towns
and Cities Of Northern Italy" -
With works by Roth, Arms and Rosenberg
as measures of merit no collector can go very
far astray.
THE four Government architectural bureaus,
Of the Treasury, Supervising Architects
Office; War. Navy and Veterans Bureaus are
holding joint exhibition in the Agricultural
Department. which opened yesterday to con-
tinue free to the public to the end of the pres
ent week This exhibition consists not only OF
architectural work but water colors and sketches
by employees Of these bureaus.
Evening star., 1933-02-12

better training could one have for such work as
he now produces architectural themes, rend-
cred with the knowledge Of the trained archi-
tect and the keen perception Of the sensitive
artist?
Rosenberg is never hampered by technical
dificulties but neither is he restricted by tech
nical knowledge. His rendition of wall surfaces
is peculiarly fine, and his understanding Of the
relation Of light to shade most notable. What
ever he does has that distinction which belongs
only. but invariably, to great art. He is
master etcher.
THE sculptor exhibitor in the Sears, Roebuck
& Co. galleries this month Is Karl F. Skoog,
a native of Sweden but for some years now
resident Of this country. Mr.. Skoog has re-
ceived numerous awards and has executed i'm
portant commissions, SUCH for example, as the
Fishermhn's Memorial at Gloucester, Mass;
portrait busts Of the late Senator Lodge, Of the
archbishop of Sweden, President Lowell of
Harvard, the Late Henry Lee Higginson, Prof.
r. Bushnell Hart and others. Included in his
showing here is a portrait Of the painter John
Singer Sargent, an interesting animal group,
Buffalo and Panthers," and an exquisite little
figure (Which might well have found its way
into the Miniature Painters, Sculptors and
Gravers' Society's exhibtion) of reclining
woman, nude.
| OCAL print lovers and collectors are n
L commonly favored at the present time when
three Of the leading American etchers are
simultaneously exhibiting here-Rosenberg at
the Sears, Roebuck g. Co. galleries, and Ernest
David Roth and John Taylor Arms at the Arts
Club.
Mr. Roth, whose works are displayed in the
Arts Club gallery, shows water colors as well
as drawings and etchings; Mr.. Arms is repre-
sented exclusively by etchings, which occupy
the walls Of the drawing room and dining ROOM
Mr.. and Mrs. Roth, the latter successful
riters.attended the opening view at the Arts
Club last Sunday afternoon and made many
friends.
Mr.. Roth's water colors are of an unusual
sort. recalling old English watercolor draw
ings literally drawings. to which a wash Of
clear, transparent color is applied. It Is
primarily line and mass that interest the etcher,
therefore when he uses color it is merely to
heighten effect But how slillful he is as a
craftsman, how accurately he portrays his
themes, and with what taste. judgment and
feeling!
It is an extraordinary thing that three etch-
ers OF architectural subjects could vary 30

These are selected from a larger group Of CO.

These photographs, which are in fairly large
dimensions, are Of the Parthenon, the Erect

Age, which are still an amazement and an in
spiration to countless travellers. Mr.. Whitaker
has been successful in interpreting through the
medium of photography the ageless beauty of
these ruins and the atmosphere of the place
as few before him have done. This series of
prints, sngly and collectively, will be found not
Only significant but enchanting.
THE Sears, Roebuck & Co. Galleries opened
last Tuesday evening their February show
with private view as usual, at which in the
present instance. the Minister from Venezuela
and his wife were guests of honor and one of
the chief exhibitors Venezuelan artist Alberto
Egea Lopez. Mr.. Lopez contributes to this ex-
hibition oil paintings portraits and land
scapes; water colors-portrait drawings and a
hthograph, Swimmers" the last shown in the
Olympic exhibition at Los Angeles in 1882.
Among his portrait drawings is one of the
Venezuelan Minister, Mr.. Mariana Arcaya and
among his oil portraits is one of Mrs Arcaya,
simply and very directly painted. Extremely
charming is his portrait of Miss Louise Finch,
and an excellent likeness Is his self-portrait
also in oils. Among his water colors is one of
'Washington's Church." and another of the
patio Of the Pan American Union"
Other exhibitors are Maurice Braun of Point
Iona, Calif.: F. Mortimer Lamb of Stoughton,
Mass; Michel Jacob formerly of Washington,
now Of New York; Lester Stevens of Rockport,

NNE Of the features of this particular exhi-
~ bition is the brilliant series of etchings by
Louis Conrad Rosenberg, to which separate
gallery has been given. The American Society
of College Print Collectors has just issued as
the first Of its two plates for the current year,
an etching by Rosenberg; and, if American
etchers were to be asked to name the six men
at the top in this profession there is little doubt
that Rosenberg would invariably be among
that number. Like John Taylor Arms, Rosen-
berg studied at the Massachusetts, Institute Of
Technology, to which he had won a scholar
ship offered by the Architectural Club of Por-
land, Oreg- then his home; and he left the
institute as winner of the technology travelling
fellowship In architecture. In 1921 an exhi-
bition Of his etchings was held in the American
Academy In Rome, attracting very favorable
attention. But the etcher was still determined
to be an architect, and. returning to New York,
worked for two year as a craftsman and de-
signer In the Office of York & Sawyer
Through the interest Of Muirhead Rome who
had come across some of his prints, he was
persuaded to give up architecture for etching,
and entered for a time the School of Engrav-
ing at the Royal College Of Art In London, in
which he greatly perfected his technique under
the instruction Of Malcolm Osborn What

the opportunity Of distinguishing individual
characteristics.
Maurice Bram's paintings are Of California
Landscapes, picturesque. lovely In color, lyrical
In quality. They are the kind Of pictures with
which one would Hike to live. It Is said that
when an exhibition of Maurice Brauns paint
ings was shown in Texas city some time ago,
18 were sold the first day, and twice kilograms
were sent to the artist for more. Seeing these
pictures one does not wonder.
F. Mortimer Lamb contributes 81 exhibits,
most striking among which are . full length
portrait Of Mary Baker Eddy; spirited paint
ing OF steeplechase. and one or two very
colorful stin life studies.
Michel Jacob seems to have changed his style
with his residence, for whatever modernistic
tendencies he may have had when he was in
Washington are no longer apparent; his land
scapes, contributed to this show, are essentially
Of the academic type.
Lester Stevens is essentially a painters
painter. one who handles his pigment with
breadth and sureness and produces results that
are keenly artistic and unquestionably sincere.
Several of the works shown in this exhibition
were painted when he was in Washington last
Fall conducting a class. These are "Rock
Greek Park" "Near Pierce's Mill" and 'The
White House Rotunda"

Gary Cooper long ago invited stares
when he produced a foreignmade car
painted bright sulphur yellow with
tenders of green. P. D. Smith tells
me that he has his eye on both Of
these. One day a star tires of the car
which has entertained him or her for
couple of years Then it goes into
the rental market and earns $50 or
more day. Or it goes into the used
car lots to be bought by a citizen.
I've got to add a personal expert
ence to all this. A relative of mine
bought the roadster which Gloria
Swanson drove about here for some
time. In San Francisco it became q

terrific weight, which made it almost

By Their Cars One Must
Know the Hollywood Stars

T OLLYwoOD. Calf. September
23-When a Hollywood player
becomes ,a,ls. Ho.lyvo0d 2sa+,n hit ;,,r the
the same. A modest apart
ment on side street becomes that
super-apartment in the limelight: the
small roadster becomes the great purr-
ing motor, and the sporty and cute
wardrobe acquires spangles, blue fox,
ermine coats and all the rest
BY their cars do ye know them, for
the motor makes immediate the success
of the moment But what becomes Of
the $4,000 cars that finally go into
the discard when the star sees some
other bauble or takes dramatically to
especially built flivvers for a hobby?
There is a man in Hollywood who
tends to just such things. P. D. Smith
directs sympathetic buyers to the aban-
doned cars of the famous. and it seems
that most of these historic busses go
to people of moderate incomes. For
instance, a Greek restaurant owner in
downtown Los Angeles is the owner Of
Tom MiX's $4,000 car. It is but five
years old and the Greek bought 1t for
$3.50, after it had reposed for weeks in
a used car yard.
OF course, the most spectacular car
ever to startle Hollywood is the s22, 500
Mercedes Benz which AL Jolson gave
as a present to Joseph Schenck. It
had gold-plated interior furnishings,
needle-point tapestry cushions with the
producers monogram woven into the
design and elaborate rosewood inlays.
Now, within two and one-half years
of its purchase, Schenck has sold the
car to Peaches" Browning in New
York for $500. And If that wasn't q
bargain!
The famous Arbuckle Rolls cost the
late comedian S25,000 and was recently
sold for $500 to a man of very moder-
ate means. The 25-horsepower Rolls
which Mary Pickford drove so often
around here is now 10 years old and
may be bought for $50 on one of the
used car lots Of Hollywood
P. D. Smith, who rents unusual for
eign-made cars to movie lots for sum
never less than $50 a day, has some
interesting ones in his possession.
Among them is one which formerly was
used by the German Crown Prince and
which was equipped with machine gun
and rifle racks and bore other evidences
that 1t had been used by the officers
visiting front line trenches during bat
tie.
Rudolph Valentino had a town car
from whose windows the alluring face
of Pola Negri often peeped during his
life here in Hollywood. When Valen-
tino died, the car, which cost $4,000,
was sold to Texas oil man for $500.
