The Aitist's Native Land Permitted the Great Canvas to Find a Home In This Country-—The Story of the Painting and Its Replicas. One of the chief glories of the Metro- polita museum in New York is Rosa Bonheur's stirring masterpiece, “The Horse Fair,” a picture which for its frresistible movement and lving por- trajiture of man's most useful friend holds a unique position in the annals of art and the affections of lovers of paintings. Few, however, are atauzinted with the intimate history of that notable canvas, and fewer still are aware that there are no less than five horse fair pletures In exis The one in New York is the original and, it will be re- membered, was first the property of A. T. Stewart and then purchased for the Metropolitan by Cornelius Vanderbiit for 250.000 francs.

It was first exhibited at the salon of 1853, but went back to the artist unsold.
