ENGLISH, 1836-1912 Alma-Tadema was born in Friesland. Although he showed promise mn drawing as a boy, he was trained for the bar. He found, however, that his. true métier was painting and, while at first he encountered a certain amount of difficulty and discouragement, he attained success much earlier than is usual, and, when. only twenty-five years old, was awarded the Gold Medal for Painting at the Royal Academy at Antwerp.’ Later-he won high Medals and Orders from every cultured country. He devoted much time to historical research, which ensured the absolute accuracy of his paintings of Greek and Roman Antiquities, the romantic spirit of his pictures being invariably backed by sound knowledge of the subject and period represented. 1 GOLD FISH : A marble pool, with golden carp swimming on its surface, in a ter- race of mosaic; near its edge, on a tiger-skin, a girl reclines at full « length, stretching out her hand to feed the fish. } Canvas.

AS vue ENGLISH, 1838-1898 Baber Coley Burne- -Jones was born in Bipaacee Original: destined for the Church, he went up to Oxford in 1852, where he met William Mor- ris, whose friendship he retained throughout the whole of his life. He e€ was a Celt to the finger-tips—dreamy. and imaginative. Absorbed in literature, - especially of an allegorical or romantic nature, his first serious essay in the realm of art was a set of pen-and-ink illustrations for a volume of Ballads on the Fairy Mythology of Europe. Except to a very small coterie none of his work was known until 1877, when he exhibited some pictures at the Grosvenor Galleries. They were at once the subject of discussion and controversy, which continued until 1889, when Messrs. Agnew bought the famous “Briar Rose” series and exhibited them at their Galleries— “A masterpiece in colour, design and execution which it is no rash pro- phecy to say, ensures the artist’s immortality as long as paint and canvas Be q hold together.” The four exquisite pictures silenced criticism and, as long as they were on view, crowds flocked daily to see them. In the same year the French Government made him a Chevalier of the Legion of Honour and in. 1894 Queen Victoria, on the advice of Gladstone, created him a Bar- onet. His motto—“Sequar et Attingam’”’ —was prophetic. In all humility, with absolute fidelity and truth, he “followed and attained” the vision of his dream. - This is the first time that a collection of his works has been ead for sale — § in America, although during his lifetime he had American admirers, — ; notably Professor Charles E'. Norton of Harvard University, whose daugh- ter’s portrait was painted by Burne-Jones. The studies, as do the finished pictures, serve to show with what patience and care his work was 8 done, so that he could offer nothing less than ls best. | : Ot i. sae THE ROSE BOWER 60) A female figure, half-length, holding a book; in a setting of roses against a gold background. | 3 ies 3 Canvas.

Pen From a label pasted on the back of the frame it appears dat this fine picture was once in the possession of Thomas Agnew, Carver and Gilder, Exchange Street, Manchester—this would be during the earlier half of the last century. Constable exhibited no picture of Arundel at the Royal Academy or the British Institution, so far as can be discovered from the respec- tive cataloguers. We know from his biographers that he visited his friend George Constable at Arundel in July, 1834, and he was work- ing on his picture of Arundel Mill and Castle (now in the Collection of Mr. Libby of Toledo, Ohio) at the time of his death. The Lever- hulme picture dates from about 1834-37, and ranks as one of his masterpieces. [SEE ILLUSTRATION] 18 ARUNDEL BY JOHN CONSTABLE A R 4 27] [ NUMBER JOHN CONSTABLE, R.A.

His career was determined by his breaking a leg; to while away the hours of convalescence he was given a paint box and his efforts were regarded as so promising that, upon recovery, he was sent to a drawing-school. At the age of six- teen he was apprenticed to a toy-maker, for whom he painted miniatures and decorated small objects. On the death of his employer he painted scenery for the Birmingham Theatre, at that time managed by the father of Macready, the famous tragedian. In 1804 he went to London, where he made the acquaintance of Varley, who encouraged him to devote himself seriously to painting, and in 1813 the seal was set on his skill and profes- sional reputation by his election as a Member of the Water Colour Society. 49 A HAYFIELD 300 .

He was one of the greatest painters of the eighteenth century and maintained a successful rivalry with Sir Joshua Reynolds, from: his house in Pall Mall, in painting the portraits of the beauty and fashion of his day. It is very rare for a portrait painter to be ’ also a landscape painter, but Gainsborough managed to combine the two, and, while his portraits show the same simplicity as: those of Van Dyck, whom he greatly admired, in landscape he captured all the mystery and charm of the countryside, and his subtle effects of light. and eI: are enchanting. . 104 DUKE OF CUMBERLAND Henry Frederick, Duke of Cumberland and Strathearn, fourthe son of Frederick Prince of Wales; born in 1745; Privy Councillor and K.

One of the surprises of the evening was when the widely-heralded Constable landscape, “Arundel,” ranked as one of Lord Lev- erhulme’s masterpieces, was sold to Mrs. William T. Tonner for $1,000. Fifteen paintings by Constable, though numbering nearly a dozen small studies, realized $5,925. Six landscapes by John (Old) Crome went for $5,050. Four by Bonington brought $4,000, and four Pee including the large “Earl of Fife” by Francis Cotes, sold for$4,750 . It was apparent that many of the pictures collected by Lord Leverhulme were types which hold relatively small | interest for the American collector. A fine landscape entitled “Peace and War,” by David Cox, which thirteen. years after the painter’s death, in 1859, was sold for nearly $18,000, brought only $2,500 last night. It was purchased by Rosenbach the Company.

To this principle Millais steadfastly adhered and his pictures are strong with the force of great sincerity. In spite of adverse criticism (in which even Charles Dickens joined, though he after- wards owned his mistake), his pictures sold for considerable sums—‘The —Carpenter’s Shop’, which “The Times” called loathsome and revolting, being bought by a dealer for £150. Members of his family and friends sat for nearly all his subject pictures and when he turned his attention to portraits they were among his greatest successes, his portrait of Mr. Glad- stone, now in the National Gallery, London, being considered the finest portrait ever DUNC of the great statesman. 179 “CALLER HERRING” | Miss Beatrice Buckstone, the daughter of the Retr, was the model for this picture, “the broadest piece of Pre-Raphaelite painting he (Millais) had indulged in for five-and-twenty years”.

[NUMBER 221] SIR JOSHUA REYNOLDS, P.R. A. ; | ENGLISH, 1723-1792 ) Reynolds was born in Devonshire; at an early age he showed signs of ‘talent and in 1740 went to London and was apprenticed to Thomas Hudson, the portrait painter; he studied hard and by 1744 had executed some twenty portrait commissions. His work was so much superior to that of any of his contemporaries that he quickly became the most popular painter of the day. He was elected first President of the Royal Academy. In 1781 he painted portraits of George III and Queen Charlotte and he also painted Dr. Johnson, who was his intimate and much-loved friend, five times. — Reynolds is regarded as the greatest portrait painter that England has ever produced and as one of the greatest painters in the world. He hada singularly charming personality and gathered round him all the most eminent people of his day. In his will he bequeathed a picture each to the Earl of Upper Ossory and to Lord Palmerston; the former chose the “Venus and Cupid” and the latter “The Infant Academy”, each of which is included in the Collection of Lord Leverhulme. . 223 THE INFANT ACADEMY _A group of Cupids in a studio, one seated to the left, painting ; the other to the right, posing for its portrait, in high bonnet with 0 “ “ *“feather.
