THE SUNDAY INTER OCEAN, JANUARY 24, 1892. 18 an art exhibition worthy of the name, American pictures ought to predominate. Foreigners who come here will want to see what our artists have done, and will scarcely care to see what their own artists send. But from what I hear, great efforts are to be made to induce other nations to fill up our fine arts building. Even should American artists receive due recognition, I am afraid that the older and representative men will be crowded out to make room for the younger set, who assume to possess all the artistic of our time.

The same trouble was experienced at the Paris Exhibition. The older American artists who sent pictures there found their works hung out of sight, if hung at all, and were naturally disgusted. I know of a well-known French artist who, utter glancing through the American exhibit, said: are your American pictures! see plenty of copies of our French work, but we should like to see comething besides the pictures of young men who but repeat what they have learned in our Paris ateli.rs. This was the sentiment in Paris, and it is sure to be the same in Chicago, if something is not done to enlist the interest and co-operation of the men who have been known in the American art world for at least a dozen years. The whole arrangements are understood to be in the hands of a Western man who, judging by the circular he sent out to American artists a few months ago, has DO sympathy with the older school.

This circular particularly mentions that the Chicago exhibition of paintings is to illustrate the progress made by our artists since the Centennial--as if there was no American art before 1876, or as if Europe had then given our artists a lesson for which we should be grateful, and which gave us a start in art. you can find one New York artist who is at work important picture for the Chicago Exhibition, I shall be VANDERPOEL AND GUERIN. Invitations are out for reception to be given Monday evening, at the rooms of the Chicago Society of Artists, which is to introduce an exhibition of the works of John Vanderpoel and Jules Guerin. The latter's part of the exhibition consists of about forty water colors, many being the result of last summer's sketching. Mr.

Vanderpoel's contributions will be largely retrospective in "THEIR DAILY character, there being enough new work, however, to engage the attention, and repay the trouble of a visit. The chief value of the exhibit is in affording an opportunity for the careful estimation of the full powers of the painter, which is not easy, when but two or three works are shown in a large exhibition. This comprehensive view will redound much to the artist's credit. He has succeeded in borrowing many of his finest works from their purchasers. The picture, "Resting." a figure of a peasant woman with a jug, seated in shadow, which is the property of Charles L.

Hutchinson and is probably the best of Mr. Vanderpoel's figure pieces, occupies a prominent position. Another center of interest is the canvas called "'Their Daily Bread," which was first shown at the society's exhibition two years ago. The artist's finely modeled, delicate and harmonious portraits of ladies which are to be shown have previously beer. commented upon.

In the larger one there is a cameo like delicacy of handling that is very satisfying for such subjects. The small portrait of a lady is one of the finest things he has ever shown. "NOON IN THE VILLAGE," BY QUERIN. Mr. Guerin's work is characterized by a great deal of feeling and cleverness in execution and handting.

He does not attempt to transcribe a do pace from nature, but viewed from a realist's standpoint, may be said to take a a a number of bold liberties with subject, but they are usually in the interest of intenser feeling or more striking effects. He is fond of nature in her more sober moods, and in the larger part of his water-colors low- med and da harmonious grays prevail. This tendency makes more marked a new departure in the selection of subject and handling the same, which is deserving of special commendation. He has taken the quiet country street of a Southern Illinois town and treated it in a way which is suggestire of great possibilities. He has chosen his subject under the dazzling sunlight of high noon, and, while preserving the American character of the scene, has "IN THE SOUTH OF FRANCE," BY GUERIN.

handled it in a way to suggest, if not the Orient, the wealth of color and light of the tropics. Mr. Guerin is a strong admirer of F. Hopkinson Smith, and it occurs to the viewer that his Venetian scenes may have influenced the younger painter. But seeking the picturesque in the commonly considered prosaic phases of a country village business street is a radical departure in its way, and one which in this instance has resulted well.

The exhibition will continue until about Feb. 15, when it will be displaced by the previously announced blackand-white show. WALTER CRANE. At the Art Institute the exhibition of the decorative works of Walter Crane will close to-morrow night. The collection will then go to St.

Louis. Mr. Crane has made no sales of his works in this city although several were disposed of in Boston. The reason for this is not, as a Now York paper darkly hints, on account of the artist's socialistic views, but probably because Chicago has but very few real collectors, although many who own collections and such as the city possesses do not seem to have the courage of their convictions. The appreciation of a fine work of art, which is a passion at all times with the genuine amateur, seems to be weak or wanting.

It of itself is not sufficient motive with the Chicago art buyer for going into an exhibition and purchasing. It requires before there is any considerable transaction in pictures something of an extraneous stimulus in the way of adroit manipulations of the art dealers. Mr. Crane is, of course, not asking any one to buy his pictures, and is not "working" the public. It is more because he has aintained a dignified position and avoided Art Association" tactics, that there have been no sales.

Praise and admiration have been lavishly accorded him. His views on subjects other than his art are of little interest here, and whatever he may believe in religion, politics, or social science certainly had no effect in preventing sales, as it is said to have done in humorous Boston. THE ACADEMICIAN'S KICK. The old artist who still paints in the style of before the war, and who has no patience with the technical accomplishments that our younger men learn in Paris and Munich, has been heard from in the regulation kick on the regulation subject, this time in connection with the World's Fair. A New York paper states: "An artist of standing in New York and a member of the National Academy said yesterday: "I doubt.

whether any New York artists have yet decided what to do with reference to Chicago, If we are to have form obtained a wide introduction throughout the The writer is mistaken, as John Rogers, of New York City, is the author of those famous groups, the Best of which attracted so much attention in a window on Broadway during the war. READER. The Election of Senators. Buffalo Enquirer: A mighty popular cry one of these days will be: "Elect Senators by the direct vote of the people!" Pittsburg Commercial: It Is a common belief that our Senators in Congress have been retrograding both in personal character and in the qualities of statesmanship, as compared with their predecessors of generation or two past. This is a popular fallacy.

The further we are removed from the earlier Senators the less we know of their bad qualities, but they were All human and more or less faulty, The chronteles of the time were not so full and searching half 4 century ago as they are today, and yet there is enough if on record to show that the people were little, any, better satisfied with their public servants then than they are now. Taken as a whole, there has been much ability, integrity, and patriotism manifested in the Senate during the past thirty years as during any preceding generation, and while the choice of Senators by State Legislatures has sometimes been faulty and even scandalous, there is no reason to hope that their election by a popular vote wonld be at all times either satisfactory or creditable. J. Hopkinson Smith is meeting with A fair financial success in his New York exhibition of water-colors, most of which were exhibited here. He has sold about $3,500 worth.

Director W. M. R. French, of the Art Institute, will deliver a lecture Tuesday afternoon in the. Institute lecture, room, the subject being Innoceney Vision." It is one of the regular course for members.

It is proposed a part of the Colorado exhibit at the World's Fair shall be a bronze group by Preston Powers, a son of Hiram Powers. It represents an Indian in a mournfully contemplative attitude with one foot on a dead buffnio which he has just shot. It 18 supposed to be illusrrative of the extinction of both buffalo and Indian. Mr. Powers, although educated in Florence, is at present a resident of 1 Denver.

If we may believe the Washington correspondent of a Baltimore paper, Mr. Reed is not greatly taken with his own portrait by John S. Sargent. "I can stand it," he Was formerly reported as saying, "because that painter has painted me 60 that the hardhearted Democrats will forgive Ine for ali I made them suffer. They think my punishment is sufficiently Now comes Mr.

Springer with the remark: "If that is art, I don't want any art in mine. In fact, the thought that it I had been elected Speaker, some tan might have done to mne what this man hes done to Reed reconciles me to Crisp's J. G. Brown has collected 130 of his paintings which are now on exhibition at the Fifth Avenue Art Galleries, New York. They clude his best canvas, "Watching the Circus, and range trough a variety of subjects which take in not only his newsboys, boot-blacks, and old men and women.

with which the publie is 80 familiar, figure and genre pictures, country boys and girls, fishermen, young women of sentiment, the latter being something of a revelation to many who suppore he never painted anything but the evitable gamin. Mr. Brown has several times tried to break away from the subjects with which he is in the public mind and portray those which other artists adopt; but the buying amateur would not have it. In this exhibition are shown his efforts in that direction. because the person who wanted a J.

G. Brown wanted a characteristic one. The exhibition will conclude with an uareserved auction sale to be held on the evenings of Tuesday and Wednesday next. Daniel C. French, who is at present in Paris, has just completed a memorial tablet, with life-size figures, of Martin sculptor of Boston and the creator of the batil: in.

nurent on the Common. The tablet to be done in bronze. A photograph of it was received by Sculptor French's brother at the Art Institute. Thy idea is novel. and 18 as effective as any of the best things in modern sculpture, which is -ajing much.

It repre-euts the young sculp or at work on a low relief of the sphinx. One knee is on the dais, and the pose of the figure is graceful, and at the same time vigorous. Beside him is the figure of Death with hands outstretched, und resting oil the chisel in the act of arresting the work. In Death's other hand a bunch of poppies, typical of the long sleep. This figure is simp.e and dignified.

There is a feeling of re entiessness in the fimly modied mouth and a suggestion of mystery in the hrad part lly vei.ed and canopied by the drapery. A together it is strong and striking. It shows a marked advance and a steady growth over previous work of Mr. French. It is something calculated to give the dead Boston a fame which his own works have not done.
