JUNE BtllDAL PARTY
EXHIBIT WAR PICTURES
Themes Sketched Under Fire by
French Artists Are at Academy
An exhibition of neaily 100 oils and
water-colors by. French nrtist-soldiers
is open to public view nt the Academy
of the Fine Arts. The pictures nrc
from the collection of Rodman Wnnn-
mnker.
The paintings were mnile in the
trenches or developed from sketches
done under shellfire, during furloughs,
bj nrtis-ts in the service' or on specinl
duty with the nriny. Many of the
men who painted them are dead. The
collection is of high quality nnd records
dramatic moments with the emotionnl
intensity which is characteristic of the
French temperament.
The most striking picture in the
collection is by Georges Clnirin, "Gas
Attnck." Many of the pnintings show
a wonderful use of the sky, cloud forms.
nnd sweening smoke masses to express
the horror and excitement of the battle -
front.
"After the Assault, Champagne," by
William Lnparrn, is an epic of human
destruction suggesting the huge pic
ture "The Conquerors," owned by John
Wnnumnker.
Another picture with n high-powered
thrill is Louis Gillot's "Attnck Against
Asphyxintiug Gases nnd Liquid Fire."
Gillot wns one of the official painters
for the French army. In "The Peri
scope," by George Rruyer, there is n
concentration of meaning nnd feeling
which mnkes it a masterpiece. Only
one painter of the group, Tancrcde
Rynave, can be classed as a modernist.
The prevailing color scheme of most of
the paintings is in faded blues, tans,
pale yellows nnd browns.
The exhibition will remnin open to
the public without charge every day for
the next three weeks.
