the Gulf of Mexico. Morrice ob- viously belongs to France, not to Canada. Even in the winter scenes oi Quebec, the snow is warm and l thawing. The habitants with their massive stone houses are reminis- cent cf Normandy. Morrice knew the Canadian winters well, in his adolescence, since he was born in Montreal, of Scotch-Canadian par- ents. But he was an inveterate European, a Parisian by preference. He never was deeply interested in the land oi his birth and~his rest- less soul was that of a nomad. The very reverse can be said oi the work of Tom Thomson, whose 20 canvasses are exhibited in the other half of the same hall. The contrast is breath-taking. Here we turn boldly to the virgin forests of the North and the rugged shores of northern lakes; the air is cool, the sky is clear. A spectral slow bespeaks the Arctic, even though

(Written for thoCanadiun Press by Dr. Marius Barheau OTTAWA, July 30.—Visitors at Ottawa during the Imperial Con- ference will want to know whether this country is doing as well in creative arts as it is in the produc- tion oi wheat. It is to satisfy their curiosity that the national gallery tomorrow opens a retrospective ex- hibition oi paintings and sculpture; and’the work of Canadian artists is so well arranged, in several halls, that it is bound to achieve its pur- pose admirably. The whole scheme hinges upon a compact show oi the paintings of J. W. Morrice and Tom Thompson, two outstanding Canadians whose career is now ended. The two di- vergent tendencies that divide Canadian allegiance in pictorial art are thereby eiiectively set forth; the first, towards the French land- scape painting of the Barbizon school, and the second, towards a later sense of autonomy that has grown rapidly at the expense oi the other. Morrice characterized the first tendency. He belongs to France and its expansive influence abroad, whereas Thomson stands for self assertion in his own country. The contrast at close quarters between the two is impressive, No stranger can fail to understand, no Canad- ian can remain indifferent. ‘Here is the parting or the wnys.

The display of Canadian pictures in itself invites opinions and pre- ferences. Here the ancients arc rep- resented, there, the modems. One of the halls is given wholly to a former generation. The only vital note here is found in the curly paintings oi Kreighoff-snow scenes of Quebec mostly-that still re- tain their freshness after many years. Most will. prefer to study the modems on the lower floor. Can- adian landscape here beyond all question challenges interest.

The 30 Morrice canvases form a remarkable show in themselves. Their refinement and beauty are irresistible. They are from the hand of a great master of tho French impressionist school, strik-

ing in the breeze and the beauty of the work is sung, as has never been sung on canvas before. Herc is the land of Voyageurs, forestcrs and pioneers, 0. land oi opportun- ity. The brush of Morrice never had touched it. Someone else must do it, Thomson and others like him endowed with a gm for pioneering} Thomson's jack pine stands like a. symbol, that _oi a new Canada emerged from the cocoon. It is lonesome at first sight, its branch- es are drooping and shaggy. But it is intensely Canadian. Sombre and grandiose, it is decorative.
