A VILLAGE CLUB PROBLEM.
[To THE EDITOR OF THE " SPECTATOR."]
Sin,—As one of a committee of a new village club, it has become my duty to obtain an artistic print of some portrait of the King which will satisfy not only the natural desire to have such a portrait in our club, but will also be a real work of art, decorative on the wall and a good example of an artistic por- , trait in itself. Reproductions, however good, of the well-known portraits by Mr. Cope, Sir Luke Fildes, and Mr. Frank 0. Salisbury scarcely fulfil these conditions, and are, above all, extremely undecorative. Some print of the character of Mr. Nicholson's well-known woodcut of King Edward seems what is needed for our purpose. I should be very grateful if you or your readers know of any such picture.—I am, Sir, &c.,
VILLAGE CLUB.
