The spring and summer exhibitions in London, England have been as unprofitable as any. They equal or surpass the Academy in dullness, though they include those of the New English Art Club, the International Society, and the Allied Artists' Association, the three societies supposed to stand for all that is youngest, gayest, and most alive in art. The exhibition is a vivid impression of a crowd in the open air, full of movement and color, and far more accurate than the Englishman's painting as a record of character and costume and date. Of course this is no new discovery, but it is one useful to make anew at this moment when contemporary artists in England offer little at all to think about.
