ACAMfi NEW ers are represented in the Cincinnati Museum's permanent collection, which has recently been This later school of painting: is sharply distinguished from what is termed the enrly American school: its elements are mainly progressive.

There are a few customary traditions which survive, but they are frreatlv submerged. It Is easy for. American painters to advance because wo natually digest the progressive measures of the European fields more quickly because cur painters usually spend a few years of their most formative period in European schools, where they are paiticularly alert to advanced thought. Now because we are not ahackled by traditions these students ssltnilftte the methods more quickly. Of course, critics tell us there is no real American school of painting.

In the main this is true becuuse our men have been Munich and Paris trained. "Ye have developed a marvelous school of snow painters and while runny of our painters have been influenced by European teaching they have developed 'qualities that rot been attained by others. When I make this statement I am thinking particularly of Alden Weir and John Twachtman. There is a delicacy and a subtlety in their painting which has not been excelled and there is an atmospheric quality about their work which gives it an evanescent charm that is also not found elsewhere. One may observe this in Twachtman's "Spring," his "Waterfall" and "Snow Bcene," which are in the museum collection, and in Alden Weir's landscape and his "Still Life With Roses," all of which are now on view In the mu Events in Art Circles business man CR EATIO NS CINCINNATI ART MUSEUM April an extensive exhibition of American painting in the permanent collection of the museum.

ART1 ST-ENG1NEERS that his palette has grown dark the range is somewhat hhorter, but it has added richness. "Crimson and Gold" is really the portrait of a young American girl and outside of Its It was his partner who suggested that he look at an Oldsmobile. When he came into the salesroom he explained what he demanded in a car plenty of power for fine performance, smart ap- pcarance, comfort, and genome fine car design and construction. He was quite frank in adding that he did not believe it possible to get all these qualities in anything but an expensive car. He studied the Oldsmobile in seum galleries.

Twachtman's beauty of paint It value, because It Is a type. It Is reticent in handling and has some very beautiful passuges i This new Oldsmobile is motordom'j good news of 1928. It reveals new and sophisticated elements of style. It embodies new engineering features, It provides new niceties of appointment and equipment. It typifies the whole new spirit of the times because it reflects the master touch of artist-engineers.

On every hand, this fine car of low price is exciting admiration. And though you may have formed the highest opinion of its beauty though you may have heard the highest praise of its performance we urge you to come in for a personal inspection. We want you to experience the silent, smooth perform It was always a strange phenomenon to me to see an artist's style and color power change so decidedly with the, years. One American painter whose style seems' forever set Is Daniel Garber. So far at least we are sure to see an American landscape shimmer over his canvas like a beautiful piece of tapestry.

He seems verily to embroider his theme into the warp and woof of his canvas. When I observe "The Hawk's Nest," his large canvas owned by our museum, I always think how very effective it would be as an overmantel decoration in a private home. What a beautiful color scheme It presents ance ot the new 55 h. p. high-compression engine.

We in paint: we come very close to the actual in this study; one almost catches the perfume of the roses. In the painting of the textures there is no brilliant dexterity, but the petals are fost and moist the very texture of a rose. The movement of their drooping buds serves Its purpose in recording this fugitive Impression. AV'ith the spring season well upon us and the trees bursting into leaf, we turn naturally to Childe Hassam's "Pont Royal," for here is springtime in Paris; it is white, green and blue a perfectly beautiful color harmony. This Is a Temple Gold Medal picture, and was also bought before Hassam's prices soared to their present height.

It a splendid Hassam and contains the elements that he has contributed to American art, which are vibrating color and unity of effect, all of which is painted with a spirit and feeling that leaves nothing to be desired. Originally the purpose of my story was to note the progress of American painting, but I got lost in admiration for some of my old favorites; and'so I turn next to Elmer Schoficld's "January." Here is another beautiful snow scene of an entirely different order, even though it is. like 'the others, true American scenery. I admire very much the repose that Mr. Schofleld has expressed in tills picture and he has an unusually fine discrim want you to revel the comfort of spacious new risher bodies and in the luxury of easy driving and restful riding.

And thus learn why thousands of car buyers are turning to Oldsmobile. Spring" is a canvas which Duveneck particularly admired and I presume that Is the reason Twachtman presented it to him. Although it is not what is termed finished it is one of the most complete harmonies I have ever seen. It is all spring light and spring greens and spring atmosphere; It is a veritable poem to spring. Twachtman's "Waterfall" is one of our most coveted possessions.

Its color melody is beyond description. The effect of falling water could not be duplicated by a lesser artist. The Museum Ibought this canvas long years ago at one of our spring exhibitions; the price was very modest at that time; it could not be bought today for -5 times the purchase price. No one but Twachtman could have painted the snow scenes in the J. J.

Emery collection, it is the quintessence of sensitiveness: it reflects Twachtman's peculiar quality of sen- sitivencss; no one' else could have Ktten the feel of that soft falling Whenever there is a heavy snowfall nnd the bushes and trees are laden with snow I think of this picture and I know that Twachtman obtained, in this picture, a remarkable atmospheric condition. Twachtman attained, in these snow scenes, qualities which other painters have tried to produce; few, if any, have approached him, and he certainly influenced the generation which followed him." In the Weir landscape tliere is much of the same sensitiveness, but it is distinctly a production of a different temperament, and thaf is th one thing which makes painting so interesting and vital. Weir's study of a few roses In a bowl is a miracle and how easily a fine interior could be built around it. Edward Redfield's paintings also lend themselves to Interior decorations. The one that the museum, owns projects the most typical American scene In any of the paintings.

It Is tt view of a country road which leads into a little village. It passes old barns and Americun houses such as we encounter on tho outskirts of a silence a while, during which a look of puzzled surprise appeared on his face. "I can understand," he finally said, 'how you get such beautiful lines, and smart appointmentsthat's expected of bodies by Fisher. But I can't understand how' you can include all this equipment at the price especially since that bigger engine obviously costs more to build." It was explained that the so-called "extras," such as 4 Lovcjoy hydraulic shock 'New England village. It is the win ination when it comes to tone color.

There Is a lovely quality to his pre vailing light, These are the essentials of his fine rendering. In the same gallery is William Chase's "Japanese Kimono." which, if TWO-DOOR SEDAN I mistake not, is another gold medal painting. It is a painting of great Excu Tarn Extra distinction and contains those mar velous qualities of paint which Chase 6pan Tin Extra tra has handed down to this generation. A picture of great interest is Julian Story's portrait of "Emma Eames." This artist was a pupil of Duveneck and for that reason I presume that Mr. Knoedler, of New York, presented this portrait to our museum in mem ter season and the roads aro slushy with melting -snow.

It' Is such ren-derings as this that have given Edward Redfleld a foremost position in American landscape painting and has made him one of the great leaders of the group of snow painters. Frederick Frieseke, who is more French than American, is represented by an exceedingly fine canvas. It presents two young women who are manipulating a little bout on a little stream. The boat has drawn near to the bank under some willow trees. It is an exquisite effect of daylight, with an intermingling of blues and green, but the artist has scored his most delightful effect In the way he has painted the foliage.

Tho leaves and the branches are dripping down over the figures of the young women. With this picture we end the review of the paintings for this week. Another time we shall single out more of the paintings in the permanent collection which nluke our museum showing of American art most noteworthy. Wilbur Adams's recent sketching trip to Glacier National Park has re ory of his wife. Hanging next to this Olds MOBflLE is Rook's still life of "Wisteria Blossoms" a beautiful example of quiet painting.

In close analysis of the various manifestations of Indoor light no one has surpassed Edmund C. Tarbell, he has carried on the study begun by the French painters and there are few painters of the Boston School who do not owe much to his example. Our museums owns two of these Interiors.
