U the writer of this article were to lollow
ke tiBRRO consecrated by Mm and tradition,
lie would bave to commence his remarks by
making complimentary allusion to the valuable
paced yonr journal, and indulge In a n tim
ber of ap"lofrics lor venturing to encroach upon
its columns. I shall do neither; for your recent
exhaustive essays upon the Fine Arts (as repre
sented in the present annual exhibition of our
Academy) have abundantly proved that the
interest you feel in matters pertaining to the
arts is sufficiently ttroT.fr to warrant the belief
that you will inert this c mtmmication.
I Am one of the few who bave fa'.th In the
artistic abilities ol American painters, and bo
Heve that a penerous recognition of their merits
should be fairly accorded them. Amoug tho
names of t'uone that are found at the head ot
the list of fine lamlHcape artists is Albort flier,
stadt; and, until the other day, a great many
unsophisticated persons believed that he was
capable of producing a work of some merit,
and there were some few to be found who backed
their Ideas on the subject by paying thousands
of dollars for his productions. Unfortunate
creatures! how dreadfully harrowed will they
be after a perusal of the slashing criticism that
appeared in last Saturday's New York Tribune
on this artUt's last painting! It may be perti
nent to tne subject in hand to stale, for the
benefit of the uniuiWed, that theie are two
ways of being toncidered a successful critic.
The first manner is to be delighted with every
thlug, to distribute praise rUrhtund left, to writhe
and grovel belore works th.it are from the
easels of celebrated painter?. This is one way
of writing about paintings, and it has been made
to pay ; but our critical friend of the Tribune
seems to consider the other method tho best, for
reasons best known to himself. Consequently
he wields a trenchant blade, and Is merciless to
those who have not taken pains to conciliate
him after the fashion he likes best. There arc,
then, two styles of criticism, and In like man
ner there are two classes of critics. In the tirst
class we tball place the man who, having studied
the works of the best masters in all countries,
draws as result of their study this lessou that
In all conf-cientous efforts to reproduce the
beautiful in nature, a certain amount of good is
to be lound ; in fact, a critic of this class feels a
large share of sympathy with all who endeavor
to repment nature in a poetic sense, and never
thinks ot preaching from a fanciful eminence to
the abashed crowd of art-followers, as the in
ferior art critic would do.
Our second-clnss writer is distinguished from
the first by this great feature he knows abso
lutely nothing in reference to nature, and, for
the matter ot thai, very little about art; but his
great forte is fliopancy, and this is a very strong
point indeed. How easy it is lor such an one
to examine iu a few miuutes the work of an
artist, who has, perhaps, given months upon
months to the development of the subject, rnd
then, with a few lines of witty scribbling, con
sign both artist and picture to the contemptuous
miles ot the public 1 Our carping friend of the
Tribune belongs to this category; but he over
estima ea his force if he thinks he can displace
Bierttadt lrom the estimation in which he is
held by amateurs.
The Domes of the Yo-Semite is now on exhi
bition iu New York for the beuotit of a Suutu
eru relief fund, and the lady managers ot the
exhibition have a printed description of the
work scattered arouud the room, iu order to ex
plain the points of interest of the picture t
visitors. A few complimentary allusions are
there to be tound in reference to merits of the
artists, and these laudatory remarks seem to
have had a maddening effect upon the temper
of our critical friend. I extract from his own
article the remarks fiom the priuted descrip
tion that excites his ire. Here they are:
"Famous as other paintings or Mr. Blerstadt have
become, llils, tils latest gut to Ilia world of art, merits
the highest adruirallou ever accorded to bis guulus,
The singleness ol us Idea, the sublimity of Its subject,
lhe masterly skill which nan drawn lis perspective,
and deludes us with lu seeintuxiy eudiess iter I a I dU-
lanceB, ueiray tun revereui woisuipper ol the lleauu
lul, and the uutalterlug artist,"
To those who have looked with unqualified
admiration upon this artist's Bublinie production
of "The Storm in the Rocky Mountains,"' this
does not seem by any means too ereat a meed of
praise to accord to one who Is certainlv a con-
sclentious student of nature, and yet It Is over
powering in Its effect, for with con.entrated
ppite does the writer in the Iribune exclaim :
"Wby Mr. Blerstadt should think for a moment of
fallenug, wlih such backers as this all over i "e 11 md
we really do not know. It will be. to our miu a
plain case of flying la the face or Frov iuc". w
wish, with all our hearts, he would taller."
I am sorry that I cannot agree with the wish
to heartily expressed, but, on the contrary,
fervently pray that an artist of Buch power and
ability as Mr. Blerstadt may long continue to
give us such delightful renditions ot nature's
charms as may be found in this last ereat work
of the Yo-Bemlte. Lover of nature have al
wajs been solemnly impressed with the abun
dance of beauty that the Creator has lavished
on all lands. The apparent waste of lovelluess
that grows and decays in solitude is a lesson
for us all, impressing us as it does with the
Illimitable resources of our Heavenly father,
vho renders the most inaccessible retreats'
monuments of His glory aud His goodness!
Fancy, for a moment, the woodland gleus
where the foot of man has never fat
crushed the modest daisy or tram
pled upon the waving fern. The flowers
bud and grow in beauty. The chequered sun
light silvers here and there the murmuring
river, and we canuot look thereon. To those
who pass their lives in the study and research
of these beauties, we owe a debt of gratitude for
presenting to us the counterfeit presentments
of such woody nooks; and foremost among
them all may be placed tho name of Blerstadt,
the adventurous artist whose labors have ren
dered us familiar with the severe grandeur of
the Eocky Mountain range, and with the soli
tude of Its woods.
But our friend of the Tribune interrupts us at
this point, and tells us, la the dogmatic style
usual to bis class, that
"Mr. Blerstndl Is entirely dead to all senBU of what
fa nrnnerlv termed color. He iiuinia with asues, with
clay, with brimstone, but never with light. He ha
but little accurate knowledge of nature, either In her
ceueral forms or in her detail; the proof ot which Is
at hand in the cloud-drawing of the present picture,
in the vegelallou throughout, and Iu the uninterest
ing aud uuvarled foreground."
The readers of this communication cannot at
present see the picture under consideration, but
en attendant we would advise any person Inte
rested In the subject to examine the right-hand
foreground of "Mount Hood," now on exhibl
tion at Uie Academy of Flue Arte. A rjsore ex
quisitely truthful rendering of foreground, both
In color and form, I have never seen; and yet
the foreground in the "Domes of the Yo
Bemlte," which Is at least as equally well
realized, causes the writer in the Tribune to
regard the very qualities which I, In common
with thousands of others, admire, as lacking in
color, form, and detail.
But perhaps, after all, I do not know as well
as the gentleman who "uses up" Brlerstadt in
such an unceremonious manner. A thorough
acquaintance with the wrks of every landscape
painter both in Europe and America, may not
help in any way to form a comparative idea of
the various merits of artists. A love and de
light In studying nature, in all her changeable
forms and moocl, may not assist one in forming
an opinion of the studies that are made from
nature by landscape artists. All this is of no use
whatever In aiding one to become a judge of the
beautiful. No! it Is (rue, we were once vain
enough to believe Hint that sort of study aided
a man to become a judge of pictures; but our
friend of the Tribune has convinced us that no
other qualification is necessary but one of un
blushing cheek, plenty of assurance, and a gift
of gab. These are the attributes to render a
sharp writer able to attack, with some noise, an
artist who has produced a great work that will
live for ages, namely "The Domes of the Great
Yo-Pimite."
