Hall, who is also known as a genre painter, justly earned a reputation years ago for effective paint- ing of fruit and dowel's, in which he has hitherto had few equals in this country ; and M. J. Ileade has devoted his attention successfully to the rendering of the wonderful gorgeonsness of tropical vegetation. The ideal flower- painting of Mr. Lafarge we have already mentioned. Miss Robbins,of Boston, is at present one of the most prominent artists we have in this department. She composes with... great taste, and lays on her col- ore with superb effect. Some of her paintings suggest the rich, massive coloring of Van Huysams. Messre. Seavey, of Boston, Way, of Baltimore, and LambdiUjOf Philadelphia, have produced some interesting results in this direction; and Miss Dillon and Mi's. Henshaw must be credited with some very beautiful floral compositions. The list of ladies who have been measurably successful in realistic flower-painting is very large, and indi- cates the strong tendency toward decorative art in the country, which must I'esult ere long in a distinctly national type of that branch of sesthetic culture.
