Abstract
- This article presents information on the Eleventh Exhibition of the Water-Color Society. Painter Walter Paris, in his "Lenox Furnace," gives honest work without sensationalism, and shows the hot, withered look of a village of iron-works superheating the landscape of the high summer noon. The "Calm" of P.T. Clays, the Belgian is, of course, a faultless recital of the liquid effects of plashing water-music. "A New Hampshire Kitchen," by Walter Brown, showing a huge fireplace that would be the pride of a modern bric-a-brac interior, and a farmer's wife manipulating the kettle of dyestuff obtained from blue sugar-loaf paper, reveals a care and a promise rare among lady-amateurs. A room is devoted to black and white. The display is very select. Here is a superb proof of Seymour Haden's "Calais Pier," much better than that he exhibited at the Centennial, and a preliminary proof of a corner of the same.
