The Studio june 15. 1914 [antikvár]

THE STUDIOThe art of john lavery, r.s.a., a.r.a, etc. by a. stodart walker.With the exception of Mr. Sargent no living painter has been so canvassed, catalogued, and criticised as Mr. John Lavery. His name and his work areknown wherever Western art has penetrated. He has been laureated in more foreign collections than any of his contemporaries. The subject of a biography, of numberless criticisms and apprecia-tions, it may seem an act of supererogation to add to his bibliography. The unique exhibition of his work at the Grosvenor Gallery, in which we are able to study his artistic output from the early Glasgow days to the present seems a sufficientapology for one more essay as to the capacities of the man.The exhibition ranges from the year 1879 year 1914, and represents the cream of these thirty-five years. Of the 130 pictures, somé twenty are from public collections.
