Funeral services at his residence. 451 60th on April 17, at HUNDREDS ATTEND ARTISTS' RECEPTION ON VARNISHING DAY Exhibition Representing Conservative and Traditional Far From Old-Fashioned. The Brooklyn Society of Artists held its Varnishing Day reception last evening at the Pratt Institute Galleries. No Academy Varnishing Day was more enthusiastically attended. The Brooklyn Society of Artists is the Academy of Brooklyn.

It is the oldest of the several art sowhich have since been formed. cieties histories of all art societics repeat themselves. They split and form an academy and a radical group, then very often they again. At present there are three art societies in Brooklyn--the Brooklyn Society of Artists, the Brooklyn Society of Modern Artists and the Society of Painters and Sculptors. The present exhibition, in representing the conservative and traditional, is in no way old-fashioned or unprofessional.

Fortunately we are getting away from this idea, until recently prevalent among our younger intelligentsia that unless a painter dresses up his work in modernistic clothes he is stale and played out. In the present exhibition landscapes predominate, as is always the case in any group of American painters. There are 62 pictures, some of the members of the organization, which numbers 56, exhibiting more than one picture. The crowd was so great that any adequate review of the exhibition must be reserved until Sunday. society draw hundreds of people That ethe pictures of a local art in one evening, is surely a proof that there is a live anough art interest in Brooklyn to provide an art gallery suitable for the needs of our local artists.

The Pratt Gallery was originally planned for one-man show. The present exhibition is attractively hung, and proves that the hanging committee has exerted utmost ingenuity in arranging the present exhibition in such a way that the small wall space does not seem over- crowded. Vezin Has Village Scene. Charles Vezin, the honorary president, is represented with a colorful street scene of a New England village, and with another gray misty picture which he calls "Bridges." Both pictures are the antithesis of each other as regards color, and here is one artist who has not fallen into the danger SO prevalent with our successful landscape painters, of repeating a successful motive. Harry Roseland sends two of his portrait heads, Mrs.

Clara Faifield Perry one of her charmingly decorative flower studies, in which a carefully planned pattern does not destroy the reality of her subject. In quite a different sperit is her nocturne. Here she has given us the poetry, the emotional aspect of the thing, rather than an emphasis in fact. Mrs. Caroline Ackerman Brown shows a sensitively felt little landscape, and Frances Keffer one of her richly painted flower studies.

Other painters who have been impressed by the so-called poetry of nature are Allen Daggett and J. Willet. Howard Notman is here with a large canvas which he calls "Rain." Here is a man who has worked out an entirely personal point of view. Starting out with small canvases in which every minute detail was recorded with almost photographic exactness, he has gradually evolved a style which has something almost Chinese in the generalization of nature which he gives us. A generalization which we know is on accurate knowledge.

The Chinese painter contemplated a certain landscape until he knew its every mood, then he went home and painted, one a might say, a composite idea of many moods. Benjamin Eggleston sends one of his autumn wood interiors, a harmony of blond autumn tints and grey mists: Leon Dabo sends a vivid canvas, which he calls "Sea-Shore." a typical Dabo, in which he again demonstrates his original sense of composition; it is a case of mos'ly sea and little shore. W. E. Spader shows a portrait, which he calls 'A Studio Study," one of the best figuro studies in the exhibition; Will Quinlan, Nic.

las Macsoud and William Patty exhibit important canvases, which will be discussed at another time. Since all varnishing day receptions are in reality social, and the true picture lover returns and looks at the exhibition alone. The society has invited artists 1 to exhibit with theim who are not members of the organization. They are: Gustave Gimiotti, George Laurence Nelson, Franklin de Haven. George Pearse Ennis, Glenn Newell, Ernest Roth, George Traver.

List of Exhibitors. The list of exhibitors follows: Charles Vezin, Harry Roseland, Frances Keffer, Robert M.
