Works of Jean Louis Forain on View
At the Caresse Crosby Gallery

new location and remains through
next Tuesday.
Forain is generally linked with
Daumier and Gavarni. The three
formed triumvirate of French car
toonists who exerted powerful influ-
ence upon their times. Forain, born
in 1852, was the youngest by ap-
proximately 40 years. He was hence
the intellectual heir of the others
He early became skillful in the use
of pen and ink and was fascinated
by the potentialities of the press
His retentive memory and the speed
with which he worked gave him q
marked advantage in dealing with
the type of subject matter that most
interested him. He drew most OF
the time for impressions rather than
models.
The present exhibition has more
than 80 works, 20 of which are etch.
ings and Autographs. They impres.
one anew with the feeling that Fo-
rains graphic work was more bril-
liantly executed than his paintings
His interest in subject was intense
His color is dominated by brown.

In the field of TYPOGRAPHY

things-joy in living. The latter ex-

Wood Enerauines
Perhaps, however, the most re-
markable and impressive of all the
collection now on view, are the wood
engravings by Grace Albee and by
Thomas Mason, which witness to
possibilities of achievement new and
especially fascinating. Wood engrav-
ing which dates back to Durer and
his contemporaries was much used in
this country for the purpose of illus
tration in the eighteen nineties, and
was raised to high level for artistic

lessons on the Spanish guitar. They
sang duets in Spanish with their
own accompaniment. Performing
at embassies, they had opportunities
to meet many Spanish and Latin

not new to Katie, as she had previ-
ously sung over WRC, WINK and
WWDC. She also has performed
in the Department of Interior, the
Department of Agriculture and the
Music Auditorium of the Smith
Isonian Institution.
