HONGKONG ART EXHIBITION

HIGH STANDARD-OF ENTRIES

It is Inevitable that in an ex- hibition of work by amateurs there should be both good and indifferent, and this applies to the Hongkong Art Club's exhibition which opened yesterday afternoon, and is being continued to-day and to-morrow. In the long list of entrios it is dificult to pick out any particularly outstanding work, especially as much of that shown is of a really high standard, but mention is due to several ex- hibitors whose contributions are of unusual merit,

Mrm A. M. Bowen-Smith again plenses with her delightful flower paintings, and her decorative Christmas cards and calendars are real works of art. Miss Carvalho In another Indy with several ex- cellent example of fine work- both in drawings and modelling. Mr. J. II. Hunt and Mr. A. J. Lane have quite the professional touch, with drawings and colour work of their usual excellent standard; and Mr. G. W. Arnold also shows a number of studies in which there is a great deal of merit. Mrs. Asche has some deliente water colours of a high quality; and Miss Griffin shows her wonderful skill in outline with paintinges that are full of beautifully drawn detail.

Some of the water colours are little, more than mediocre and the oils are mastly of a poorer quality than the other work. It is not possible, either, to give particular prakse to the photographs, several of which are below exhibition standard.

There

some delightful examples in the arts and crafts section, but the contributions are fewer than might be the ease.
