The. collector -asked of paintings that they | _jshould be graceful to him and to his friends. He did not ask of them to be ea | eertain epochs or schools. | He placed Courbet beside Lefebvre, with |delightful impartiality. His white hair. |glistened in the front rows of seats at the} imost varied art sales at Fuller’s Monets, jat Milliken’s ‘Mancts. | I thougat that Mr. Blumenstiel was | leclectic, that be desired examples of all expressions of art. But that was not his j i ' inclination. Tt was for the pretty, the ex- iquisite and the rare. | His individuality is flagrant in his col- dlection. It has sketches by Menzel, Neu-! jville, Israels, Gerome, Rosa Bonheur, which {seem to haye been carefully selected, after | thours of delving in the artists’ portfolios, | ito express only their graceful traits. | j { Gabriel, Arntzenius. When Gerome wished _to make a gift to Mr. Blumenstiel, Gerome “selected the most delicate picture that was! in his: studio, “The Sentinel,” an Albanian i costume of the most delightful colors. Another | Gerome, ‘‘The Sentinel at the _gultan’s Tomb,” harmonizes aptly the green |” and the red, the blue and the orange, of flags, rugs and costumes. The ‘Head,’ the portrait of a man, by Sir Joshua Reynolds. “is in the amber tone of Titian’s portraits | peeine Reynolds acquired. , “After the Storm,’ an old vessel at aj, pier, in colors red, blue, green and gold,| by Isabey, has the magic lights of an ame- |thyst. The same painter’s ‘‘Bringing Home the Wounded” is a poem of- graceful fig- ures and vivid colors. Boudin’s gray and green sea of Antwerp, “In the Harbor’; his ‘‘On the Bere, | painted at Deanville, his other works of {> ‘the collection; Domingo’s ‘‘Cabaret,”’ Rous- | 2 , Seau’s splendid “Sunset,” dark green and] ' red; Swan's ‘Lioness and Foxhound,”’ have > | | } ' multiple good qualities, | They have, especially, the grace that Mi, 'Blumenstiel liked.

Paris, September 7th, 1895. 65 Boulevard de Clichy. Dear Sir: I have heard that you have bought my picture “'Tidi-Abder-Rhamon’s Tomb” and I beg to send you a few lines to explain the subject. At the death of a holy musulman his fellows in religion build a little monument over the tomb, which is generally ornamented with flags and covered with draperies; these draperies are generally precious, often bearing inscriptions taken out of the Koran and ‘written in the configues types. The ornamentation of the monument is in carved and painted wood; on the top are little domes. The musulman women (who they say have no soul) are not allowed to enter the Mosque but are authorized to visit the tombs of the saints, where you very often meet them, specially on certain days. From the decision of a Council at the majority of one, the Christian women are declared to have a soul and are given the right to enter Churches and Temples. ; The subject of your picture is: A father with his two children has come to perform his devotion, on the right a Santon (that is, a religious lunatic) kisses a flag. Very often the believer after the prayer and before leaving the church kisses the holy cloth. Please believe me, Dear Sir, Truly yours, i Signed: J. L. GtrOmeE.

Behind the cardinal, on the right, is a figured velvet screen partly concealing a tapestried curtain. November 17, 1898. Sir: Mr. Allard has told me that you would like to have a letter explanatory of a picture which I have lately finished, and of which you have acquired the ownership. I hasten to respond to your desire. It will be for me a means of thanking you for the honor you do me in condescending to interest yourself in my work. The picture in question represents the corner of a picturesque library, which does not shine by reason of any elegance, since its sole ornaments are sombre hangings and old furniture of another period; but upon the shelves where the books are arranged, are hidden many treasures. Behold, well in evidence, supported by the pulpit of an old lectern the most precious treasure of all, an old Dutch bible, in its primitive binding, not intact, but at least respectable. It is the latest “find,” the rarest piece of all, long coveted, haggled over as to price, finally captured and placed in the sanctuary. In the absence of the master of the house a friendly visitor has been introduced. He is a Cardinal who himself would seem to be most appre- ciative of the marvels of the printers’ art, for before taking off his mantle, without even taking the time to put down his stick and hat, he has thrown himself upon the old treasure, and is now slowly turning over the leaves. The point which I have striven to bring out in this painting is the physiog- nomy of a bibliophile, at gaze before a rare book. There are many passions in those heads, love or envy; but also that nobility which is always given by erudition joined to taste for art. There, sir, is the explanation of my character sketch. Besides, since you are yourself an amateur, you must know better than anybody else what he is thinking. Receive, sir, the assurance of my most perfect consideration. J. G. Vipert.

REMARKABLE ART FANS Tus unique and remarkable collection of the work of celebrated artists was started by Mr. Alexander Blumenstiel in 1894, and, after tireless energy, completed in ten years. Each blade is painted by a distinguished artist and is a complete picture in itself, carefully carried out by the artist and strikingly individual in its subject and treatment. The five fans embrace a complete representation of the work of all the modern foreign and American schools. This work can never again be duplicated. Many of the artists have died—among them, Cazin, Henner, Benjamin Constant, Géréme, Jacob Maris, Boudin, Vibert, Mesdag, Minor, Vollon—and certainly none of the others would ever accept a similar com- mission to paint on such a restricted space constituting a work so difficult. The mountings were designed and executed by Tiffany & Co. Sugges- tions with respect to the mountings were made by Monsieur Madrazo. food .

On the left, in the middle distance, is a large cop- pice with a single building overshadowed by the trees, and on the right, low in the heavens, the full round disk of the harvest moon is shining, casting a ruddy reflection on the plain below. Through the thin mist which covers the sky a few stars shine here and there. _ This picture and the following one, “ Karly Morning,” were purchased at the sale of the effects of the widow of the artist after her death. Mr. D. W. Tryon, the well-known landscape painter, a few weeks before Daubigny’s death, which occurred on February 19, 1878, visited his studio and saw these. two large pictures on the easles. Mr. Tryon in speaking of his visit says: “ Both were noble examples of his work and made a deep impression upon me. I told him they seemed an advance over all his previous pictures. He seemed much pleased and said he hoped as much, adding, ‘They are for my family.’ I asked if they were not for sale, and he replied: ‘They are both too large and too bold to find a purchaser; all my best work remains with me and are pour la famille.” Stamped at the lower left, C.

In the left foreground is a large heap of manure near a thatched farm building which rises out of the picture, and here a number of fowl are seeking their morning meal. A gamecock, joyful at the coming of the dawn, stands crowing lustily on the summit of the heap.
