THE CANADIAN, This magazine continues to be in every way worthy of Canada and the perusal of all intelligeut Canadians, The April Bourinot’s ipstrne tive and very interesting series of articles on “The Makers of the Dominion of Cana- | dt,” and refera particularly to the United ; bum ber continues Dr. | Empire Loyslists whose deecendenis are perhaps the most important element of | the Canadian population of today, ‘The article on the Anglican Church in Canada cotitaing many facis that are interesting. All the short articles and svories are good, and the illustrations are well up to the mark. From the articleon The Academy Exhibition, by Norman Patterson, we quote the following: “The portraits by Robert Harris, the | president, are masterpieces and ahead of all other pcrtraits exhibited. “The Nihi~ jist” is small but exhibits much strength. The colour and technique are above Criti- cism, and the impress0n taade upon the observer is very favourable, The por- trait of Johan Hammond is even more pleasing, though less striking. “Look at the Miniature,” the picture of a French courtier in silk coat and breeches and stockings, is a very fine piece of work and was much admired. Of Mr. Harris’ work the Toronto Telegram says: ‘Taking the work of President Harria,much is to be said in bis favovr He has outgrown the narrow technique of former day-, and now wields a broad and sure hand on. the canvas, ‘more especially ia his treatment of the faces of hia portraits. It was often a very voticeable feature that whilst his costumes were freely aad broadly painted and evi- denced great truth as well, bis flesh paint. ing was somewhat laboured and at time ineffective. The snap ani freshaess of the coat were often in strange contrast to the minute brush work on the face, one belng free aud vigorous, the other ¢on- strained and dead, no matter how beauti- | ful his colour might be. This is changed, and one has but to Jook at the fine, bold, technical freedom of the head of Mr. Lindsay apd the admirable portrait of Mr. John Hammond to be convinced that Mr. Harrit pas made rapid strides in the righi direction.
