Gustav Trois, besides participating

the Central Public Library. He won
scholarships for study ut the Cor

Tiffany Foundation. under Hobart

he has also exhibited In many

has conducted classes in painting
and etching, and is this year teach

He is afiliated with several WASH
ington artists organizations.

me. He has chosen pleasant sub
jects. he has a poetic appreciation
of gentle and peaceful landscapes
with pictorial appeal, which he
transcribes in predominately ira"

tiers of the show seems to me to
lack sparkle, vivacity or backbone.
