“THE MARKET PLACE
| Iris market day in a large German town, and in the prin-
_ cipal square, surrounded by lofty houses with steep roof's
and quaint gables, are many open-air booths with fruits
_ and vegetables. In the near foreground are grouped sev-
_ eral girls in holiday attire, some of them having made
their purchases, others awaiting customers for their wares,
and on the left one of them dictates a letter to a public
scribe, who sits at the door of his wooden office surrounded.
by the implements of his calling. The costumes are all of
the late eighteenth century period, and on a post at the
corner of the awning of the wooden office is a sign bear-
= ing the word “ Schreiber,’ which localizes the incident.

the cold by warmth from a bottle, are wandering along a
trackless, snow-covered waste among the foothills of a
ee actu nk lr es
' large mountain range. One of them has fallen on his back
: in the snow, and, pointing an empty bottle in the guise
of a pistol, halts a pair of startled sledge horses, which
: the peasant driver lashes, vainly urging them to pass the —
| sprawling figure. In the immediate foreground on the
I left a dog vigorously barks at the two companions of the
| fallen musician, who have succeeded in keeping their legs.

was found in the Carpathian Mountains.

THE WEDDING '
A BRIDAL party of ladies and gentlemen is just descend-
ing a broad flight of steps which leads from a stately resi-
dence to a terrace, the youthful bride and groom partly
shaded by a small canopy carried by two dark-skinned
attendants. They pause for a moment in their progress to
greet a bevy of small schoolgirls, who, in gala dress, meet
the bride with offerings of flowers, while an usher in livery
keeps back an eager band of peasants who crowd forward
to see the happy couple. The foreground group is in a
strong effect of light and shade, and the rest of the com-
position, with the exception of a bit of sunlit landscape
beyond the crowd of peasants on the right, is in luminous
shadow. The costumes are of the poudré period.

THE motive of this picture was evidently found in Kansas
or Nebraska at the time of the early settlement of the
West. In the foreground on the low grassy shore of a
broad river stands a prairie schooner at the point where
the trail enters the stream. The emigrants are scattered
about it, and nearby the four draught oxen are feeding
under large trees which grow near the water’s edge. A
single horseman, who is crossing the stream by the ford,
stops to water his animal in the shallows near the shore,
and across the river the sun is just disappearing behind the
trees in the distance. On the left is a line of lofty crags in
the mysterious glow of early sunset, and the cirrus clouds,
floating high in the heavens, are touched here and there by
a ruddy light.

scattered wheat heads, are returning homeward in the late
afternoon. The company is led by a young woman in short-

“BUTTERFLIES” AND FOAL
Tux portrait of “ Butterflies” with her foal ne bs “Hi
Highness.”’ This famous mare, considered in her day the
fastest mare ever entered for a race, won the “ Futurity ”
in 1894, and in the f ollowing year defeated J. R. Keene’s
great horse “ Domino.” The two animals are standing to-
gether near a broad fence on a gravel path leading down — ‘
to a stream. Both their heads are upraised, and their ears SAK
pointed alertly forward, as if watching some object or
some approaching person. Modified sunlight falls upon
the animals, accentuating the lines of their backs and
bringing them into relief against a simple wooded land- :
scape which forms the background.

THE CASINO AT MONTE CARLO
GrouPeEp around one of the large gaming tables at Monte a
Carlo, under a concentrated light from above, is a large —
assemblage of gentlemen and ladies of various ages and —
nationalities watching the green cloth covered with gold
and silver coin and banknotes. The emotions expressed :
are as varied as the types, and many familiar incidents of —
the gaming table are illustrated. In the f oreground, ons
the right, a dejected loser, with empty pockets, leaves the
table; an old lady searches in her pocket for more coin,
| and an eager young man, with a handful of bank bills,
' dashes hopefully toward the table. Through an open door
! on the right is seen a second group similarly occupied.

small fields by f neces, hedges and rows of leafless trees,

_pollarded willows grow on the low bank in the left fore-
ground, and the same number of trees, from which the
branches have been cut, stand on the water’s edge on the
opposite shore, and are reflected, together with the cloud
forms, in the quiet water. The horizon is formed by a
long rank of low trees in late autumn foliage, and the
_ sky is covered with a high stratum of clouds broken by
gleams of light from the sun, which has just sunk below
the horizon.

_ ROBING THE MADONNA
DS the chancel of a magnificent cathedral of Spain a pro-
cession is f orming to display the image of the Virgin to
the expectant congregation. On the left is a group of
richly robed priests, acolytes and various other personages
awaiting the advance of the procession, which is delayed
while a group of sumptuously dressed young ladies are
busily engaged in draping the sacred image with rich
embroideries. —I'wo maidens in white holding decorated
candles, three young children, and a pair of richly cos-
tumed noblemen suggest that the ceremony is to be of
stately magnificence.

VICTIM OF COQUETRY coe
Tue motive for this picture was found in a populous calle
in Venice, where the women sit in the street, busy with -
their sewing, and gossiping as they work. A young fisher- —
man, evidently in the favor of many maidens, has just —
met and passed a comely girl, who is going to the foun-
tain with her two copper buckets. With a coquettish air
she slowly walks away, conscious of the glances of the 4
young fisherman, who pauses to look over his shoulder at
the passing beauty. In the doorway of a cottage on the
right stands a rival beauty, who smilingly endeavors to
attract the attention of the young man, to the amusement
of three companions seated nearby. In the distance is a — Be
lofty stone bridge crossing a canal, with the facade of a-
palace beyond.

be Cie KaHLer, painter of the above-described work, was born at Linz, Austria,
_ in 1856. He was a pupil of the Academy of Fine Arts of Munich and of
Professors L6ftz and Lindinschmidt, received several medals in Munich, and
a special prize for his painting “'The Death of Julius Cesar.” A picture of
his entitled “Queen of the Season” was exhibited with great success in the
principal cities of Europe, and was afterwards purchased by the Austrian
National Gallery. Mr. Kahler continued his studies in Paris, and while there
‘exhibited his work at the Salon. In 1886 he travelled in India, and then visited
Australia, where, under the patronage of Governor Lord Loch and Lady Loch,
he met with much success, and painted a number of portraits and a very
important picture, “The Melbourne Cup,” illustrating the Australian Spring
Meeting, in which he incorporated a hundred portraits of the most prominent
Australians. This picture was reproduced by Messrs. Goupil of Paris, and
the reproductions, sold by subscription, realized 30,000 pounds sterling. While
on a visit to New Zealand the artist executed a number of remarkable pictures
of the volcanic region. In 1891 he came to San Francisco, where he stayed
- two years, painting a number of portraits of people of prominence and pict-
ures of Angora cats. It was in San Francisco he completed his important
work, “My Studio at Melbourne,” which was begun in Australia. He came
to New York in 1893, where he now has his studio. While here he has painted
a number of successful portraits, including that of President Roosevelt’s son
“ Archie,” on his favorite pony, a number of thoroughbred horses, and
numerous “cat pictures.” Mr. Kahler is now engaged in painting what he
considers his greatest work, a picture entitled “Steel, Steam, Electricity: the
Giants of the World.” ’

the spectator. On the left, seen beyond the gently slop-

which extend across the sky near the horizon. The fore-
