designing engineer. His work in this
capacity took him into the high
Sierras and from it, as by product,
came the many fine prints of these
mountains and their environs in
cluded in the current exhibition.
To explain Mr.. Doolittle's excep-
tional technical skill is less easy,
for untaught, he has mastered the
most intricate and difficult print
making methods and employed them
with that apparent ease born OF
complete competency. The surmise
is that the ability was inborn, an
inheritance perhaps from some re-
mote ancestor (there have been
among the American Doolittles some
eminent engravers). and that the
mathematical exactitude which his
engineering training imposed made
possible the conquest of mere media.
Especially successful is Mr.. Doo-
little in the handling of aquatint,
medium which has tempted many
and served few, because not only
of its complexity, but inf1exibility.
To make an aquatint, plate is
busted with resin powder in primi-
tive way, which, by the adhesion
of tiny particles, produces half
tone ground, on which the design
is etched by acid, and gradations
of light and shade procured by
scraping or Furnishing. The result
has been said to resemble in trans
parency a water color drawing, but
to lack the richness of mezzotint:
it's common fault is monotony of
tone and lack of accent. But these
structures do not apply to the aqua
tints by Mr.. Doolittle, for his plates
produced through this process have
both delicacy and strength. The
fact that they are exceptionally
large makes this fact the more
| remarkable.
Lovely, indeed, and at the same
time imposing, are his Morning
in Yosemite" to which, by the way.
the Chicago Society of Etchers' prize
was awarded last year; his Eel Cap
itan-Y Yosemite" and Desert Rocks"
all of which are spacious in sug-
gestion and full of luminous quality.
This ability re-create effects of light
is one of Mr.. Doolittle's especial
gifts, we'll manifested in such works
as "Silhouettes'-a group Of royal
palms seen against sunset sky,
and Ventura Mission-Evening"
both aquatints. In these he plays
up dark against light in a particu-
larly happy manner.
Next in interest, to the present
reviewer, come his dry points, deli
cately handled, fine in line, yet fully
expressive of weight, form and
spaciousness. In this medium he
transcribes delightfully."- the Cali
fornia mountain ranges and the
trees which stand as sentinels on
their heights and along the coast.

The Death of Mary C. Riley
A Serious Loss.
Much sorrow has been occasioned
in local art circles by the recent
sudden death of Miss Mary G. Riley,
member of the Society of Washing
ton Artists, the Washington Water
Color Club and the Arts Club, very
excellent and clever painter and an
| Sll1l iilAiiS PSi
Miss Riley has been active in the
local organizations for some time.
In 1923 she won one of the Society
of Washington Artists bronze med
ais, and again in 1882, in an exhibi-
tion held under the same asuspices.
she was prize winner. The Ma.
tional Art Club in New York, tho
National Society of Women Painters
and Scultors both similarly honored
her, as did the National Association
of American Pen Women.
A couple of winters ago she held
by invitation an exhibition of her
water colors made in Mexico and
Guatemala in the Corcoran Gallery
of Art-and later an exhibition in
one of the leading dealers galleries
on West Fifty-seventh street. New
York City. Her work was extremely
direct, sound and at times brilliant
especially that in water color, a
medium that she handled with ex-
ceptional skill. Her presence, as
we'll as her work, will be much
missed.

the Sesquicentennial Exposition
Philadelphia, he received a bronze
medal. OF his industry, sincerity
and feeling for art there can be no
doubt.
The present exhibition gives a
comprehensive review of Mr.. Levitt S
life work, comprising go paintings
and perhaps as many drawings. He
did figures, portraits, landscapes and
decorative compositions, as we'll as
still-life subjects. all apparently with
equal ZEAL but by no means with
equal merit. At times he attained
to very considerable height, but
again and again he failed to rise
above a very commonplace level.
This is true of almost all, and the
pity is that after an artists death
more discrimination is not used IN
the matter of selection of works for
exhibition. Had half the pictures
in the current exhibition been
eliminated the impressiveness OF the
showing would have been doubled
and the artist more justly honored,
for, after all, we should be judged
bv our successes rather than our
failures, our strength rather than
our weakness.
Mr., Levitts strength evidently lay
in his power to represent light ana
atmosphere; his keen appreciation
of sheer beauty in nature and his
deep human sympathy. Among the
best of his paintings are those
painted from within doors looking
out-as, for example. his large can
vas entitled window Over the
Lake" to which the bronze medal
was awarded at the Sesqui-centen..
NAL Exposition, and that entitled
Looking Out" also "Marigolds. ="
These are fresh, colorful and very
luminous; as well as strongly and
crisply painted.
The same qualities are to be
found in his Colorado Landscape
and Morning, Monhegan Island y
Utterly different in type and treat
ment are his figure paintings, some
of which undoubtedly hark back to
student days in old Russia when
and where he got his academic
training.
Joel j. Levitt came of Jewish
family of very modest means and
presumably grew up in the ortho-
dox Jewish faith, which inculcated
respect for the aged and reverence
for religion. The majority of those
he has painted are of this race and
class, and his Interpretation of
character gives indication of his
own gentleness of nature and fine
ness of feeling. Take, for example
his portrait of an old women read
ing the Scriptures. which is entitled
"Sabbath-Contentment," or First
Lesson" mother with two little
boys, one teaching the other to read
or Jewish Farmer-Sabbath Morn
Evening star., 1939-02-12

though the work displayed is more
modernistic in tendency and extreme
in expression. One still-life in this
group is admirable, in color, compo-
sition and brushWork; certain en-
larged floral studies presumably
inspired by the paintings of Georgia
OKeeffe) are decorative in feeling
and fresh in handling-but even they
give little evidence of academic
soundness, the a b c's Of art.
The children's section is, to say
the least, more up -to-date. inasmuch
as it might be mistaken for an ex-
hibition of the works of present.
day modernists, who are seeking
primitive and unschooled expression.
Here is an excellent and perfectly
veracious transcription in the style
of Rouault: there are other works
which recall likewise other inno-
vators whose works are acclaimed
as of genius; but these are children
trying to be serious, not adults as
Stunning ignorance. In some in
stances the impressions set forth
are lively and significant. There
is one group of circus scenes which
is particularly notable. Apparently
these children from the East Side
settlements. convalescent homes and
slum districts have been taught to
use their eyes, but they certainly
have not had their eyes opened to
beauty. OF this element not one
single work shows the slightest
glimmer-and though world with
out beauty may be exciting, what a
sad place it is! Practically all of
this work among the underprivi-
legged children of New York has
been under w. P. A. instructors. The
children, ranging in age from about
to IL years. bear almost exclu-
sively foreign names, and represent
newcomers from old lands where
for many centuries art has been
treasured as one OF life's assets, not
thing to dawdle with, but to in
spire. Are we investing this gold
or squandering it? That is the
question that this exhibition pro-
pounds.

Two stimulating little exhibitions
assembled by the Studio Guild Of
New York City, circulated by the
American Federation of Arts, are
now on view at Howard University
Art Gallery. One comprises small
sculpture, the other water colors.
The Studio Guilds collective
mind" is completely open, to Judge
by the sculpture, which ranges from
spirited traditional work to expert
mental, all in the scope of II ex-
hibits. In the flicker of an eye one
passes from the naturalistic head of
little girl, Jane" by Katherine
Pyle Cole, in which every detail of
the models appearance is tran
scribed with loving care, to John
Roods Mother and Child" decid-
edly primitive in appearance. What
the exhibition lacks in unity it COM
pensates for in variety. Obviously
the Guilds idea is to provide a
cross-seCtion of contemporary work
in the field of small sculpture, both
in treatment and medium, which in
cludes terra Gotta, stone, poured
stone, bronze, alabaster, porcelain,
wood and plaster.
Pony Tracks, a bronze statue of
mounted Indian, by j. Clinton
Shepherd, is an outstanding piece
in the traditional manner. The
horse has been reined in sharply
as the rider looks intently at what
is to him plainly the mark of an
interloper. Although the pose is
motionless, it is full of vitality. An
other Indian in the show is Big
Beaver" an authentic portrait of a
Blackfoot Indian. in terra Gotta, by

American sculptor, educated in this
country. Much simpler in treat
ment is Richard Davis head Of

baster; the translucent stone seems
to be an ideal medium for the ex-
