THE ACADEMY OF THE FINE ART:
KOUTY-SECOND ANNUM- EXIUMTION.
In the sprinjr of every year, a if in syiti'ift'liy
with the season, the wall ' 01 on r old Ae-demy h!uh
and bloom Rain with the bruutv of art. Then we
discover what our arllsis have been doing for the
past year, tor here their brst works are asiomti'ol.
The aatlerlos aro tilled with now pa'ntini.,, not
toeroly those of American ar isis, but with the
foreign piofure which our we .lihy connoisseur
are oonxt'.intly importing. England, Franco, and
Germany are laid under cnntnbn'ion. Nowhore c in.
the ontrarelled I'liiladulplnan a'udy ait to suon ad
vantage, for it la the only pallor In which the
various schools ard slylrs are represented. The
visitor may iro bvk to "the elory that was Greece,
and the grandeur that waa Rome ("have at least
glimpse of the beauty or the early Italian pslnters;
study the new tendencies of art In other conn tilm,
and compare witii all those tho works o! those inon
who row nia'nmln and incnaso the reputation of
Tbiladelphia. tie tnny sre tne complete colloo
tion ot oasts from the eolebrated marbles
which Lord Klein broupht from tho 1'ari.he
non to England in 1811-tlio-o mutilated
statues before whioh Fusoll strodeln hit enthusiasm,
exclaimitif, 'The Greeks were jrods! The Grcoks
wereKOds!" of which Haydcn said, "I saw fiat
onion ol nature and ideal perfected in hlh art, and
before this period pronounced by tho ab rit crit'os
as Impossible. I thanked God with all my hear..,
with all my soul, and with all my being!" No otlier
city in America possesses casts trom the unrlrul ed
works ot Phidias. Someiinn?, at lent, U lliero of
Cnido, Saivator Ro a, Dominicliluo, and Michae
Angelo. Ol tiamcn dlsPneu-'shcl in English
art are Van Dvke, Wc, Ople, LnHe,
but, strauje indc.'d, not one canvat
of Reynolds is in the galleries! But all the
artists who aie now considered the father ol Anieri
can pnlutiup are represented there Gilbert S uurt,
the greatest of a 1, perhaps 'Vahtngton Ailstou,
John Neajrle, Inman, and Rembrandt Tea e; aud
afier these the eminent painters now living -Sully
Hamilton, Bothormel, Scb.us-.ele, and others, who
prove that art has not deoneratod in America
Deficient as our Academy is in many respect', it
must be admitted that no othor collection in too
country surpasses it. while In the department of costs
from the Antique it is unequalled. To-day the spe
cial exhibition was formally opened. On Saturday
evening the privato view was largely attonded.
Most of oar artists wore present, and many pontic
men well known for thoir interest in art. The Indies,
of course, were numerous too many of them more
attractive thau the pictures, and a low qir.t3 as well
painted. A beautiful woman should entci a picture
gallery with discretion, and endeavor not to distract
the attention ol the earnest studont. In the crowds
that filled all the palloru n, and with tho short time
for examination, we could do little more thau form
a general idea ot the exhibition. T ie cnt.c is neither
just to himself or to tbe artist, who judges a picturj
at a glance.
Thoie are upwards of live hundred works belong
ing to the Academy; bejio.es there, are about
three hundred and thirty new works, which will be
Withdrawn when tho exhibition closes
We do not intend to pass over the fact that a
number of prints and drawings are hung in the
lHreclora'froom, which the catalogue states are "not
on exhibition." Why are they not exhibited?
Wnatrluht have tho Dr ctoia to retain them for
their own private enjojmentf if, as we suppow,
these works are the property of the Academy, they
should bang where visitors conld study them.
Though we remember better exhibitions, this is
equal to the average of tho last six or seven years, and
contains man; excel. ent and in'cr.-atiup works.cu.etly
by Philadelphia artists New Yoik and Boston bavo
sent few pictures. Nor are the foreign contributions
numerous, though there are many pictures, from
Germany especially, that bave nevor been on the
walls of the Acauorny. tjoine of these are only
known to the public by their exhibition at tne Great
Central Kalr the finest ojlloction ever seen in Phi
lade'phla and we regret that their owners were
not more liberal. 1 he Direotors of the Academy
have always had a difficulty in obtaining the
loan of the gems of private galleries. But why
should a collector hido his pictorial lights undor a
bushel? It it is cieditablo to possess a fine plcturo,
it is more honorable to share for a little while with
the art-loving public the pleasure of boholding it.
Tet even our best artists, after selling a picture, per
baps the triumph of a year's labor, frequently find
the possessor unwilling to permit its exhibition
This form of selfishness is akin to that which has
made the collectors of rare engravings destroy all
the duplicates they could find, that they might boast
Of having the only copy in existence 1
Of historical subjects there but few, the largest
being Bothermel's "Paul Treadling at Athens," (No
648). Schussele exhibits "Andrew Jackson before
Judge Hall, at New Orleans, 1815" (No. 691), aud
Winner, "Christ and the Pharisees," (No. 724).
These are the only new pictures in the branch of art
generally considered the highest. That it is, we are
not willing to coucedo. But that the annual exhibi
tion of the leading city in American art contains but
three paintings of history, and not one of them
great, is a proof of the inequality with
which art is sustained. In searching for
the reason of this, It must be remembered
that in this country art depends upon the patronage
of the people, while in Europe, for oenturie, its
jrreat pil'ars were Royal Governments and the
Catholio Church. To Catholicism the unrivalled
architecture of the middle ages may bo said to have
owed Its existence, and to tho lavish hand with
which the Church dispensed her wealth, Raphael,
Michael Angelo, and Rubens, most of thoir fame.
W ben Italian art was in Its glory, there was scarcely
a church too poor to purchase for an altar-piece a
"Descent from the Cross," or a "Lat J ud gment."
But in Anier ca there are no palaces for painting to
adorn, and our republican Government has only of
late appreciated the Immense importance of a
national patronage of art. In the Capitol, at
Washington, are few paintings worth glanc
ing at, and most of them dlsjjraoe the archi
tecture. The Pennsylvania Legislature has
lataly votd a small appropriation to purchase
paintings illustrative of the war; hut this is an ex.
ception. As a rulo, our artists depend upon men of
moderate wealth, who merely want pictures to adorn
their gallenes. Hence the great number of land
scapes, cabinet paintings, portraits, and the unfor
tunate scarcity of good historical pictures. Hother
mel, whose genius deserves the largest field, has
eu Cored throughout his career for the lack of en
couragement, and we owe tho "Christian Martyrs,"
the greatest oi bis works, more to his own detrmi-
nation than to any external inducement. Thouph
historical art languishes in this condition of atfain
no just complaint can be made; it is inevitable in
the early career oi nation without a Royal Court
or an Established Church.
The exhibition contains the usual number of land
scapes. E. I). Lewis contributes several good pio
tures, the largest of which is entitled the ' Edgo of a
JForest on the Susquehanna" (No. 632).
HeUol sends "On the Head Waton of tho Cone-
mauph" (No, 661), one of the moot charming of
Pennsylvania streams, Paul Weber has several
Another large landscape' Is "The Hill ot the E'ham
bra" (No. 697),lby P. Colman. Cropsey, Whlttar-
edge, Richards, Van lngen, Shavor, Rus oll Smith
and his children, G. W. Holmes, De Vogol, Isaac
Williams) are all represented.
Of marines there are unusaally few. The exhibi
tion, mime tUv important Rid ot Edward, Momo, vho
does tiot send a single picture. Nor has Thomas
Moran contributed bis landscapes, nor Petor Moran
bis cows. James Hamilton, whose genius Is tireless
as the sea whose wavos be has mastered, bidding
them blorra to the clouds, or murmur on the sands,
at his will, has sent but lew pictures, and but two of
any importance "Liverpool Harbor" (No. 699), ann
"Scene on the Thames" (No. 670). Not one of his
Niagara pictures is vouchsa'ed as, probably because
tho best of tfleso great studies, in which be has been
engaged lor a year, aro yrt unfinished. Nor dois
be exhibit a slnrlo sunset, which is so much splendor
lost. Samuel Walker, bowevor, has endeavored to
supply the want of those magnificent skies in which
Hamilton is unrivalled, and has said to the Sun ot
Hamilton, like a new Joihua, "stand still I" und
thus fixed it on his own c:uvas, where it bums with
diminished lustie. The largest of all the ninnnos
is C. G. Eoccnberf's "New York Bay" (Nj. 70S)
Bonficld contributes two or thiee.
We do not like so much land and so little sea, and
hold thodo'iiiqtioat ariists responsible. Mr. Moran,
no doubt, as he waks about the roouiB, jvliere no
picture of his is seen, ami thinks lio v Smith is criti
cized and Jones abu.-od, tnny quote Shak spear
nd say, "Let tho galled jado wince, our withors
are unn rung," But as ho is usually more praised
than blamed, this exemption from criticism will
hardly consolo him for his error in not exhibiting
something. There bavo boen years when the ma
rines in the Academy amounted to a do.u.ro but
this is drought.
The portraits are bettor than the avorage, and
thoie are very few of those dreadful mockoriosot
"the human face diviro" that Jonathan Miller used
to try to hang out of sight, noar the ceiling. Sally
exhibits several beautifully painted pictures, with
all that ease and grace for which he is famous, the
boat being "The Girl at the Well" (No. 6S).
Waugh, J. K. Lnmbdin, Conarroe, Winnor,
S!athiws, Fisher, Trogo, Pettit, and Rosenborg, are
among the principal contributors. II. Balling Bonds
"Ocnoral Grant in the Trenches at Vicksburg" (No.
706), and we think there must be half-a-dozen por
traits of "Abraham Lincoln." Schussele givos a
characteristic portrait of 'Totor Coopor," an excel
lent likeness. W. E.. Hewitt, who has mado such
rapid improvement that no one could guess, from
his present works, that seven or eight y ears ago he
was quite a bad painter, exhibits a number oi capital
portraits, one especially, a group ot children ani a
d og (No. 626), deserving high praise.
In the miscellaneous pioturos exist, probably, tho
chief merit and interost of the exhibition. At most
of them we had merely time to giauco, hut could not
mistake the bouty of Bouguoreau's "Before the
Bath" (No. 688). nor the loroe ol John Neaale's
"Cupid" (o. 632). in which the little god signifi
cantly plays with tho doves ot Venus and the shield
of Mars, fully's "Red Riding Hood" (.No. 612)
peeps out with a singularly sweet expression. Georgo
Lumhdin has a Iaige number of his delightful com-mon-plaoo
subjects.
In the northwest gallery is a large pa'nting by A.
F. Bellows, "The Echo"(No 707), which we thought
deserved more attention than we had time to givo
it. "The Recognition" (No. 773). by Constant Mayer,
is a large, bold picture, representing two brothers
nicotic j ou the field ot battle Tho Rebel soldior
bends above the dying Federal, shocked to think his
musket may bave sent the fatal bul.et. There is fine
feeling in this work. Board exhibits "Not Caught
lei" (No. 776), a picture ol capital humor, in which
r mouse escapes out ot one eud of a basnet, as his
pnrsuor leaps into the other.
In the Southwest Galery are a number of marble
and plaster casts, several of groat boauty. There are
Karnisch's model for a monument to Lincoln,
statuettes of Longlellow and Bryant by Kuntze, a
bust of Albert Barnes, and ahead by I'almer.
This rapid sketch ot the puller ios does not, of
course, even touch many of their mo.t interesting
points. Though tho exhibition does not contain one
picture worthy to be eal'ed great, it has abundant
charms for the lover of true ait. We have merolv
given our general opinion of its oliaracter criticism
we reservo.
AMUSEMtNT.
Walnut StrkbtThkatbi. Mr. Booth will make
his rvMirce in Philadelphia in a part we have never
yet seen him play that ot "Othullo." Hitherto he
has pluyed "Jago," aud It is one of tbejeweis of his
an it tic crown His admirable concootion ot "lapo"
will add additional interest to his "Othello." the
great contrast giviag, as it were, the cause and the
etket ot the dramatic action ot theplav. Mr.C.Barron
has been chosen to support him as "lapo." aud Mr.
Taylor will play "Cassio"- a fine cast. The ladies
are entrusted to Miss uermon ana Miss Graham.
The play will bo put upon the stage with entirely
now "business" and oQects according to the modern
school. Booth's reappearance is an event in our
dramatic annals.
Abob Stbeet Theatre. Madame Colette's now
piece is a version ol the "Flying Dutchman." She
nerseii cnacis mat nanuerer ot too eeas. Too etlocts
in this piece are said to be most wonderf ul, and never
yet attempted on any stage. Madame Celeste's ex
prrssive pantomime, her exquisite grace, will give
admirable character to this mvstio and romantic
bero. ,1'he synopsis ni the play seems to promise
eflts which, at any theatre excepting the Aran,
wouiu seem lmvossioie to produce, nut nore we may
be sure of having all that is "set down." lhepieoe
will be preceded every night by a tarce.
New Cherwut street Thkatbb Miss Mapple
Mitchell appears this evening in a new role, whicu
she baa never before played in this city. The piece
is an adaptation oXLn Grace de Vieu, of which there
are already one or two versions in English. Miss
Mitchell has been very snocessiul in this role, w Dich
differs somewhat in character trom "Fanehon,"
although tho heroine is a peasant. Linda di Clio
mounix is an Italian version of the plot. Miss Orion
has a pait in the piece, which will be an additional
attraction.
