H.P.Gray. 1861. The fame of this eminent American artist rests chiefly upon this superb work. Mr. Gray modelled his style upon the Venetian school ; and certainly he has here caught the grace and color of Titian in the beauteous form of Venus, the rapt admiration of Paris, pausing ere he gives the well- won prize, and the arch expression of Cupid. The general form of Venus is obviously suggested by that of the Venus of Milo, but surely the lost arms of the latter could never have had more grace...ful position than Mr. Gray has given to this charming semblance of a flesh-and-blood Venus Victrix. This picture is from the Olyphant Collection. Mr. Gray was bom in 1819 and died in 1877. / 39. Fine Weather. ^-^Tf By Luigi Chialiva. 1880. Chialiva is a native of Italy, but is one of the colony of French artists at Ecouen, and a very popular one. He has a refined feeling for landscape, is very fond of children, and loves to introduce them with animals as in this work, where in a field stretching away to a farm-house a little girl, while having her hair decked with flowers by her sister, rouses the ire of the gobbler by flourishing before him a bunch of red ones.
