M. and 8.00 P. M. each day Sale to be conducted by SAMUEL MARX Auctioneer and Appraiser ~*~ Woolworth Building NEW YORK NEW YORK CITY ENGRAVED AND PRINTED BY THE KALKHOFF COMPANY INTRODUCTION =——=F1 EK late Daniel S. Miller as a connoisseur took all art for / his province. Like his father before him he was the born collector. He was one of the strain of old New Yorkers who sought fortune in the West and found it. The brother-in-law of the late Jay Gould and the intimate of financiers, Mr. Miller was a man of affairs, deeply interested in every phase of life. His latter _ years were spent much in retirement. Although he lived alone except for his servants in his spacious suite for two decades and a half, he lacked not for company, for he was surrounded by a thou- sand and one familiars of his leisure. He assembled about him works of all periods because his was a nature which saw art in many facets. He had breathed the atmosphere of the dim past of Cipango and Cathay in the gathering of the porcelains from the ancient dynasties, the flawless vases of rock crystal, exquisite sculptures of the royal jade and ivories from the hands of master craftsmen of the Orient. How rich a store of precious things he had, none except him really knew. Only when the inventory of his collection was made was the true extent of it known. His rooms were so crowded that many rare and important objects were lost to view. Wases of Sevre were huddled together at the hearth; dark corners revealed charming water colors, and here and there disposed as though they had been forgotten were veritable gems of artistry. His collection proved indeed a treasure- trove. Where there is so much it is no easy task to dwell upon special excellence. The paintings are of many schools. ‘The strong and virile art of French military painters, soft toned canvases of the modern Dutch masters and the finest works of leading American artists may here be seen. Limoges enamels, miniatures, enamels, faience, carv- ings, enriched his cabinets at every turn. The library, which was Mr. Miller’s joy, was composed of many volumes rich both within and without. Their bindings, from the ateliers of such masters of their eraft as Sangorski and Riviere, are poems in jewels and tooled levant. Many of the choicest volumes were from the M. C. D. Borden collec- tion. The presenting of this collection for the view of an art-loving public has been a pleasing occupation. Its installation at the Hotel Savoy in the grand ballroom and the adjacent suite of ten rooms, in accordance with an entirely original method, is an interpretation as near as the conditions of exhibition permit of the personality of its late owner. The dispersal of the collection introduces a new factor in the art world, Mr. Samuel Marx, for twenty-five years an appraiser of the personalty of large estates, who now enters a new and broader field. ‘The preparation of the catalogue has been to us rather a fascinating voyage of discovery than a task. The paintings have been described by William B. McCormick, the jades and crystal by Ralph M. Chait and the balance by George A. Smyth and other experts. Every care has been exercised in determining the authenticity of the various objects. JOHN W. HARRINGTON. CONDITIONS OF SALE 1.

The writing of a brief review of the European and Oriental — carved ivories, French Limoges enamels and miniatures painted on ivories by celebrated artists of past and modern schools, is really an overwhelming: task. The ensemble presents the untiring efforts of the late owner, who was a very ardent collector of discriminating taste. The repre- sentative collection of carved ivories presents the workmanship of the Oriental and Occidental craftsmen of the past ages, and of them many are the masterpieces of the most renowned artists, whose signa- tures appear on them. The Nurenberg carved ivory tankard mounted in repoussé silver, the Renaissance presentation cups embellished with jewel and orna- ment and others, the German group embellished with silver gilt orna- ‘mentation and mounted upon crystal bases, likewise the Japanese intricately carved figures, groups and tankards, have been the cherished treasures of many generations. Among the miniatures will be found portraits of noted men and women, painted by the very best artists of their time. Of the Limoges enamels I would say that the conception of design, the harmonious treatment and decoration make them masterpieces. _ In conclusion, it may be said that so fine a gathering of such objects of art has not been offered for sale in recent years. This is an opportune moment for collectors and connoisseurs to acquire unique specimens. RALPH M.

Only since experts have been examining the rare volumes which he had accumulated through the years have the hidden beauties of Mr. Miller’s literary retreat been revealed. In a dark cabinet, for instance, were found what biblio- -philes declare to be the most ornate copy of Williamson’s ‘The History of Portrait Miniatures” extant—a princely work in two volumes. From each of its red levant covers appear seventeen exquisite miniatures, the entire number of inserted medallions being sixty-eight. It was once owned by McD. Borden. The Muller library contains many works as notable as the Wilhamson volumes. Among others set with miniatures are Walter Pater’s “Renaissance,” with a portrait of Mona Lisa on the cover, and “An Inquiry Into the Portraits of Shakespeare,’ which is adorned with numerous likenesses of the bard, painted on the ivory. A Constable edition of the plays of Shakespeare, in forty volumes, is also ornamented with miniatures. Among the artists who wrought in leather and gold and gems to create the beautiful jewelled bindings of this collection were Sangorski, Riviere, Tranz-Bugonnet, Pagnant and Adams. Mr. Miller had from boyhood been devoted to good hterature, and when wealth gave him the opportunity to follow a refined and cultivated taste, he took delight in volumes which were the appro- priate settings of his literary treasures. -__ _ He was especially fond of the beautiful illuminated manuscripts of Keats’s “Ode to Psyche,” and 'Tennyson’s “The Lady of Shalott.”’ Sitting in his carved Empire chair, near a massive bookcase, which was such a resource to him, we see him reading the quatrains of the -~“Rubaiyat” from a tiny book, the cover of which sparkles with the amethysts in the form of the purple grapes, of which the Persian -tent-maker sang. | : Mr. Miller, therefore, delighted to have volumes in elegant bind- ings, decked with exquisite miniatures and precious stones; to have books extra-illustrated and illuminated in gold and colors; to have the best and most complete de luxe editions of the writings of the world’s great authors, splendidly printed and bound; to have in book form the finest reproductions of great works of art: in fact, his aim was not to have a large library, but that everything he owned should be in keeping with his ideals. Such is the library described in this catalogue. 63 pV 465 466 FOURTH SESSION Tuesday Evening, April 18th, 1916, at 8:00 o’Clock BOOKS A’BECKETT (Givzerr A.).

The Ode to Psyche and Other Poems. Manuscript, Designed, Written Out, and Illuminated by Alberto Sangorski. Comprising “Ode to Psyche,” “To Hope,” “To Fancy.” On forty pages of pure vellum, embel- lished throughout with charming Miniatures, Borders and Capital Letters, delicately designed and very finely executed. The text is surrounded by borders representing different styles of treatment, while in some borders appear very dainty Miniatures; the Capitals and Borders are heightened with solid gold; 83 546 fully equal if not surpassing in effect some of the finest examples of XIVth and XVth Century Illuminated Manuscripts. The title-page contains a delicately painted double border of flowers heightened with solid gold, surrounding a half-length Miniature Portrait of the Poet. The frontispiece Miniature portrays Psyche, half draped, surrounded by four Cupids, all within a lovely border, painted in rich colors, and heightened with solid gold. Another Miniature depicts Puck and Cupid in a forest dell, painted in the most exquisite shades. The poem “Hope” is preceded by an elaborate Miniature of a young Mother and Babe, within a border of exceptional beauty. The verse beginning with— “Then by my solitary hearth I sit, And hateful thoughts enwrap my soul,” is followed by a charming Miniature’of a young girl seated before an open fire-place, the full light shining into her beautiful face. There are several other large Miniatures, one depicting a Cottage Scene with four pretty figures in the foreground. Another illustrates— “Whose lip mature is ever new-—” by a Miniature of a charming young maiden with superb Titian hair, painted with great brilliancy. The last Miniature illustrates— “Let the winged fancy roam Pleasure never is at home” by a splendid Miniature depicting four young maidens dancing outdoors. The Manuscript is bound in blue levant morocco, with blue levant doublures, flies of watered- silk; the covers and doublures (four distinct designs) most elaborately decorated with inlays and gold tooling. The design of the binding is floral in character, the covers being divided into spaces of artistic shapes and filled with a conventionalized treatment of a variety of floral designs. Front Cover: Center comprised of a heart-shaped sunken panel, within this a smaller heart surrounding a pheasant, exquisitely done in high relief and beautifully colored, the intervening spaces of the panel gold-tooled in pointillé, heightened with numerous inlays of flowers, and two flaming torches, all beautifully worked in green, red, brown, purple and white moroccos; the remaining spaces literally covered with gold pointillé and floral inlays within laced borders the whole consisting of several hundred distinct pieces of leather, forming-a combination of © the most artistic beauty. Back Cover: This consists of two sunken panels, the first enclosing a chained anchor worked in blue and red moroccos, the outer border with a combination of opened flowers, leaves, and three butterflies, inlaid in vari-colored moroccos of beautiful shades, the background of pointillé, forming an almost solid mass of gold, the remaining spaces decorated with designs similar to those on the front cover. The doublures are formed of an arabesque design of cream-colored morocco within another compartment of blue morocco, the whole covered with an exquisite design, the center one con- sisting of a Lyre and Trumpet and Wreath within a circular floral border of green and red moroccos, the remaining spaces filled with pointillé, floral inlays of indifferent shades, all richly gold-tooled. The doublure of the back cover consists of a similar design except that the center piece decoration is a flaming torch above two hearts of red morocco, entwined with a ribbon of blue morocco, the remaining spaces very richly gold-tooled.

The back cover with a wide outside border with a fanfare design inlaid in green, red, yellow, and light blue levant and gold-tooled, a diamond-shaped sunken _ panel in the center with interlacing bands of light blue, maroon and dark green on a ground of solid gold pointillé, framed in a formal diaper of red, blue and green morocco, and gold-tooled, and ornamented with garnets and turquoises, doublure of a Moresque design inlaid in green, blue, purple, and white levant, and gold-tooled, with straight and curving lines in a Bos formal pattern, with a wide outside border inlaid in red and green mo- roccos and gold-tooled, flies of dark green crushed levant with inlaid and gold-tooled borders, gilt edges with a painting in water-colors of the Rock of Gibraltar under the gold on the fore-edge, by Sangorski and Sutcliffe. ~The masterpiece of the late Francis Sangorski, being the last volume from his designs, and upon which he was engaged at the time of his lamented death. _ This magnificent example of all that is splendid in the art of book-binding contains 228 jewels and 2,500 inlays of colored levants. The jewels are as follows: 14 diamonds, 12 sapphires, 32 chalcedonies, 43 turquoises, 76 - topazes, 17 marquise garnets, 14 smaller garnets, and 2 tourmalines. The design of the whole binding is Moresque in character and possesses all _the richness of color, intricacy of line, and concentration of ornament that one associates with the best period of this type of decoration. There is involved in the execution of this binding more time and care than has ever been expended on the covers of a book, and whatever fad or fashion may obtain in the future history of book-binding; this volume must ever remain a marvellous and beautiful triumph of bibliopegistic skill.

L’AtiecGro anp It PENserRoso. A Manuscript, ExecurTep By Messrs. Sancorski & SUTCLIFFE. Manuscript written out on vellum and elaborately illuminated with miniatures, borders, and capitals in color and raised gold. Both poems are symbolized in the decoration of the binding. This is in brown levant, with leather joints, blue levant doublures and fly leaves, and with the whole elaborately inlaid, gold-tooled, and set with 12 amethysts, 12 turquoises, 16 garnets, 8 moonstones, 12 chalcedonies, a ruby, and a number of pieces of Mother of Pearl, in all, 61 Prectous SToneEs. The design of the front cover is an interpretation of the poem “L’Allegro,” both in color and detail suggesting the joy and gladness, and the pleasure of gaiety and mirth depicted in this poem; birds, butterflies, and bees being shown amongst a wealth of roses and other floral decoration. In contrast to this the back cover is suggestive of the poem “Il Penseroso.” As the poet himself has interpreted with lyrical perfection of symbolic expression the twofold ideas of light and darkness, joy and sorrow, gaiety and contemplation, so the binder has endeavored himself in contrasting the decoration of the front and back cover to represent the same ideas. ‘The back cover is sombre in tone, and night is suggested by a little moonlight scene, an owl being a prominent feature, and a bat is decoratively displayed in each corner. The design of this binding is entirely original and 1330 SEPARATE PIECES OF INLAY ARE USED. MINIATURE BIBLE. Abridged Versions of the Old and New Testaments. Very curious engravings on wood.

Most elaborately bound in full crushed brown levant morocco with leather joints, green levant doublures, and silk fly-leaves with both covers, doublures and fly-leaves elaborately inlaid, gold-tooled, and set with fire opals, garnets, chalcedonies and a turquoise, ae with clasps jewelled with sapphires and gilt edges, tooled and hand colored. The design of the whole binding is emblematic in character. In an oblong panel sunk slightly below the surface of the front cover appears a golden orb (suggestive of the Sovereignty of Christ), embossed and richly jewelled with garnets, chalcedonies and a turquoise. ‘This is surmounted by a wreath of thorns (suggestive of the Crucifixion), inlaid in black upon a closely studded gold ground, and is surmounted by a Dove (repre- senting the Holy Spirit), modelled in high relief. In the lower part of the panel is an hour glass, surmounted by a pair of wings, the, whole modelled in high relief, and suggestive of the Flight of Time. The background of the panel is decorated with the Vine (symbolical of the Blood of Christ), the leaves of which are inlaid in gold and the grapes in purple, appearing on a closely studded gold background. This central oblong panel is surrounded by a floral border, showing a deco- rative treatment of the Privet (suggestive of Everlasting Life), the berries of which are inlaid in red and the whole of the border is inlaid in blue. The central feature of the back cover is a conventional representation of a Phoenix appearing amidst flames and surrounded by 16 fire opals, and encircled with a wreath of butterflies.

It is surrounded by a rose design, the flowers of which are inlaid in white, and the leaves in green and the whole is enclosed by a border of dead rose stalks decoratively arranged and inlaid in purple. The contrasting ele- ments of this design: The living rose, with its vigorous growth and wealth of bloom and the dead entanglement of stalks, is suggestive of Life and Death. A number of emblematical devices also appear on the front doublure. In the centre appears a Cross inlaid in brown, and with the crown of thorns and the three nails represented, the whole suggesting the Crucifixion. This is enclosed by a border showing a decorative arrangement of peacock feathers (suggestive of vanity and pride), with a Dove in each corner (the Holy Spirit) and White Lilies (Purity) in circular panels inset into the border, this border being enclosed within bands of interlaced strap- _ work, inlaid in blue. Butterflies, hearts, and a Spiritual Crown are also introduced into the decoration of this doublure. A similar border encloses the back doublure, but with a winged Scarabeus, emblematical of Eternal Life in each corner. A symbolical device appears in the center, composed of a sword and scales surrounded by Lilies rep- resenting Purity and Justice. The fly-leaves are richly tooled with a diaper design composed of flowers and small hearts. The panels on the back are decorated with a rose design and with a butterfly and Spiritual Crown, alternately.

Magnificent Illuminated Manuscript. TENNYSON (Atrrep Lorp). Some Porms sy Atrrep Lorp Tennyson. Manvu- script Executep By Messrs. Sancorski & SUTCLIFFE. For more than 40 years Tennyson remained at the head of modern poetry. All subjects in his time he has touched in a poetical and enlightened manner. His feeling for nature is accurate, loving and of wide range. His human sympathy appeals to everyone; he makes true song and has excelled in pure Idyll. In lyrical measures he is effective and original. These selections of his poetry are written out on vellum and richly illuminated in a manner affording a fitting tribute to the great Poet of the Victorian era. These poems selected are “THE DAY DREAM,” “SIR GALAHAD,” and “LADY CLARE,” and comprise 52 illuminated pages, all of which are illustrated with miniatures. These miniatures have been specially composed for this book and are entirely original. The “DAY DREAM” in partic- ular affords splendid scope for the imagination of the artist. The Sleeping Palace is decoratively depicted in an initial miniature, rich in color, with delicately painted marble steps and pillars, with the “peacock asleep in its laurel bower” and the still fountain in the background. “THE SLEEPING BEAUTY” is next illustrated. In these three verses we have the perfect expression of Tennyson’s lyrical power. His artistic shaping of verse charms the ear with the delicate cadence of lines which are full of wondrous beauty and color. The panel miniature painting is. illustrative of: “She sleeps: her breathings are not heard In palace chambers far apart. The fragrant tresses are not stirr’d That lie upon her charmed heart.” The next miniature represents the arrival of the Prince, illustrative of the following lines: “He travels far from other skies— His mantle glitters on the rocks— A fairy Prince, with joyful eyes, And lighter-footed than the fox.” 102 No. 620. H ' i } “4 Thomson’s ‘“The Seasons.” 103 1s na RU Cosway Binding. a mnsansnaapancansancnrmsamesensttt OT ee “The Revival” opens with a beautiful panel picture of the awakened king seated at the banquet board, interpreted by the lines: “And last with these the king awoke And in his chair himself uprear’d And yawned, and rubb’d his face, and spoke ‘By holy rood, a joyful beard’ How say you? We have slept my lords.” The concluding miniature of this poem represents “The Departure,’ a panel picture of an imaginative landscape showing the Prince and Princess leay- ing the Palace; painted with a depth of tender expression. “And on her lover’s arm she leant And round her waist she felt it fold And far across the hills they went In that new world which is the old.” The poem “SIR GALAHAD?” is illustrated by a full-page miniature painting of the Knight riding to combat, armour clad, and lance in hand, gorgeously apparelled with the plumes upon his helm flying in the breeze, illustrating the splendor and power of these lines: “My good blade carves the casques of men, My tough lance thrusteth sure, My strength is as the strength of ten, Because my heart is pure.” “LADY CLARE” is a lyrical poem, simple in its lines, and is illustrated by a large oval miniature painting illustrating the following lines: “It was the time when lilies blow, And clouds are highest up in air, Lord Ronald brought a lily-white doe To give his cousin, Lady Clare.” The book is bound in green levant morocco, with leather joints, buff colored doublures and brown levant fly-leaves and with covers, doublures and fly- leaves elaborately inlaid and gold-tooled and embellished with 280 jewels, These comprise: 20 diamonds. 12 sapphires. 51 topazes. 1 small sapphire. 80 garnets. 27 amethysts. 20 marquise garnets. 16 fire opals. 31 green chalcedonies. 4 Australian opals. 8 pale blue chalcedonies and 5 rubies. 5. pearls. ‘Two thousand and seven hundred inlays are employed in the decoration of this binding. The designs have been specially prepared for the book, are entirely original and will not be used again. They are symbolical in character. An endeavor has been made to suggest in a subtle manner the three poems in the book. The dominant feature of the front cover is a symbolism of the Holy Grail; this is surrounded by lilies, each occupying the remainder of the panel. The flowers are slightly modelled in relief and suggest the purity of “THE QUEST.” They also remind one of the lines in “LADY CLARE”: “Tt was the time when lilies blow.’’ 104 The Sleeping Palace is dedicated to “LADY CLARE,” Goddess of flowers and of spring. This is suggested by the richly colored floral design that occupies the central portion of the back cover. Floral borders inlaid and ‘Closely stopped in surround these panels on each cover. The decoration of the doublures is depicted by the Poem “THE SLEEPING PALACE.” The front one represents the Palace asleep and the back one “The Awakening.” In an oval panel sunk slightly below ihe surface, the Sleeping Palace is suggested by “the peacock asleep in its laurel bower,” the suggestion of the still fountain and the garden overgrown with bramble. The Peacock is richly jewelled, the crest being formed by pearls, the eye by a ruby, and topazes represent the eyes of the feathers in the tail. In the back doublure is a suggestion of the Palace awake, birds are singing amongst the foliage, bees and butterflies add to the scene of animation and < the fountain is seen playing. Both of these panels are surrounded by richly inlaid foliage. | | Flowers ornament both fly-leaves, the monogram of the Poet occupies the center of the front one surrounded by the laurel wreath, and a foliated heart the center of the back fly-leaf. Work on this book was started in the early part of 1912 and completed the - 81st day of March, 1914. .

The distinctive feature of the collection of paintings left by Mr. Miller is the fine group of examples of the modern Dutch and French schools. ‘This first-named division of his collection includes — canvases by the great figures in modern Dutch art, Blommers, Kever, De Bock and Pieters, and paintings and water colors by men who, while not so well known, have much to say for themselves through the superb qualities of their technique. On the same level with these paintings is the group of modern French paintings. Its range is naturally wider, and includes exam- ples of such widely diversified painters as Fantin-Latour, Boudin, Zandomeneghi, Monticelli, Bouguereau, Henner, Marie Doieterle, Antoine Vollon, Lerolle; also the military painters, Berne-Bellecour, Grolleron and Chelminski, a Pole inspired by Gallic influences, and that favorite American painter who has lived so long in France as to be one of its school, Ridgway Knight. Unlike most American collectors, Mr. Miller devoted less atten- tion to the native school than is usual nowadays. With the exception of the two Harts among his pictures, these being wholly characteristic examples of the Hudson River School, now gradually coming back into a better state of appreciation among our amateurs of native art, he had few of them. And these, curiously enough, are all by men who had or have lived so long abroad as to be looked upon almost as strangers to their native land. This, at least, showed an uncommon consistency on Mr. Miller’ S part; for, since these men wholly paint in the school of the country in which they are domiciled, they are foreigners in their art, at least, and it was to European art that this collector was devoted. That is probably why he acquired a Boughton, because it was British in feel- ing; a McEwen, because his canvas was of the older Dutch manner; a Pearce, because it was French. Patriotism has so little to do with art collecting that it is rather refreshing to see, here, an amateur’s collection that represents freedom from that spirit. In all of these schools intending purchasers will find exam- ples that are not only thoroughly artistic but have a pictorial interest as well. Mr. Miller bought his pictures to live with and, when all is said and done, that is the supreme demand of any picture bought to adorn a home. So it is that in all the other schools and painters rep- resented, this quality is the predominating one. And among the smaller pictures there is not one that does not hold its own reward of artistic quality, decorative charm and anecdotal interest which will make it a future treasured possession.

It may be said without the slightest hesitation that this is the finest assemblage of jades, crystals and other hard stones ever offered for sale in the United States. There are very few collections of this kind, and the supply of fine pieces of jades and crystals decreases from day to day. The collection as herein catalogued is of the finest possible qual- ity in form, color and technique. Mention may be made of the large Rock Crystal Palace Vase, the superb Rose Pink Quartz Vases, with their original covers, which are masterpieces of the Chinese craftsmen of past ages. The Emerald Green Jade Screen, the Crystal Balls, and the very unusual Mandarin Amber and Jade Necklace—in fact the entire ensemble is so fine in quality, conception and of artistic merit, — that the pen cannot do it justice. | Among the snuff bottles will be found distinctive examples used by the most fastidious princes and mandarins of China. The amber specimens are unsurpassable. The Chinese and Japanese porcelains, though not all antique, will be found in good forms and colors, especially some of the mono- chromes, which are represented by apple-green, coral-red and fine blues; the polychromes are likewise very fine, with happy shapes and charming decorations in famille-verte and famille-rose enamels. Therefore such a gathering of so many cherished treasures should be of more than passing interest for the collectors and con- noisseurs. (Signed) RALPH M.

In a sparsely furnished room two Belgian lace-makers have stopped their toil to eat their mid-day meal. ‘Their table has been placed before a window, through which a strong light streams, that reveals clearly the simple utensils on the table, their patient, sweet faces, and the characteristic grey wall of this painter behind them. One of the young women has her back towards the spectator, but her face is seen in profile as she reaches down to lift the long loaf of bread from a three-legged stool by the side of the table between the two women. At the end of the table the second woman sits, her gentle face, grey and black gown and white apron all painted with superb precision by this modern master of tactile values and sunlit atmosphere. Signed at the lower right, Bail, Joseph. Purchased from C. W. Kraushaar. EUGEN VON BLAAS. AUSTRIAN: 1843- FLoweER GIRL. Height, 43% inches; width, 238%, inches. With a coquettish air, comporting well with her vivacious costume of flowered green skirt, tucked up to show her white petticoat and red stockings, purple and red bodice with embroidered guimpe, a slender, grace- ful brunette has paused for a moment against an old brick wall to glance towards the spectator over her right shoulder before she steps through a stone-arched gateway in the wall Jeading into a wooded park seen at the right. She holds a flat basket of brilliant flowers on her right hip and balances this by holding her left hand against her other hip. Signed at the lower right, Eugen von Blaas, 1900.

In an opening between two clumps of trees, and beyond a rich, green meadow, lies a pool lit with the reflection of the sinking sun. The luminary has dropped below the horizon, but the sky is still glorious with scarlet and yellow clouds, above which floats a darker expanse touched by the shadow of the oncoming night. In the fore- ground are some fowls, and the figure of a man at the left. Signed at the lower left, Geo. Inness. 242 Jb Iy 04 No. 1143 HENRI J. T. FANTIN-LATOUR. Frencu: 1836-1904. INSPIRATION. Height, 24 inches; width, 29% inches. A. decorative symbolical study characteristic of Fantin. On a height, rising above a broad plain, are seated two figures. The golden-haired woman who typifies Inspiration is on the crest of the slope, while at her feet is the artist, with pencil poised above a sketch- ing block. The figure of the title is draped only to the waist in filmy red, and her golden hair, bound with flowers, hangs down her back. The artist wears a black costume and looks up eagerly to the figure above. Dramatic, portentous clouds sweep across the sky behind the figures and over the plain. Signed at the lower left, Fanton.

The modern Dutch genre school is brilliantly represented in this charming picture of happy childhood and the rich beauty of the native landscape. In a meadow by a little pool two girls and a boy are engaged in picking the gayly colored wild flowers of the coun- tryside. The boy has his back to the spectator and is evidently still plucking the blossoms. At his left is the seated figure of a young girl making a nosegay of the plucked flowers in her lap, while stand- ing behind her is a little girl holding her flowers in the hollow of her left arm. The sunlight falls on the flaxen heads of the children in high lights and on their shoulders. Through a vista formed by clumps of trees at the left and right of the picture is seen a broad. low-lying meadow with barns dotting it, and a humid rose-and-blue sky hangs over this distant prospect. Signed at the lower right, FE. Pieters, 1911. Purchased from C. W. Kraushaar. 244 AUGUSTE HAGBORG. SwepisH: 1852- A. Barr-DiGcer. Height, 47% inches; width, 301% inches. eet Bi Armed with her long- ,, Of handled bait spade and wat- tled basket, a French peas- ant woman stands on the beach at low tide resting for a moment before she begins work. The artist’s interest z in the woman as a subject -__-was clearly in her wind-red- dened face and the soft hues 3 of her time-worn yellow Bee's - skirt, red bodice and blue waist. The threatening sky behind her strong head and figure is an elemental fea-— ture of the canvas. Signed at the lower right, Hagborg. | Purchased from M.
