PICTURES WORTH SEEING.
THE LEICESTER GALLERIES, LEICESTER SQUARE.
1. Statesmen and Authors : Portraits by Walter Tittle.
[An exhibition of efficient drawings and dry-points of celebrities.]
2. Paintings and Drawings by Lucien Pissarro.
[Like most Impressionism, these pictures fail to perform their theoretical function ; viewed closely, they have a gem-like charm, which becomes rather anaemic at proper focal distance. In So. 32 Mx. Pissarro is not only a technician, but an artist.]
3. Paintings by Simon Bussy.
[Making no pretence to be other than decorative, these paintings el animals and birds show a harmony well achieved by the use al the brightest of colours. The forms are well massed and conven- tionalized to fit the Oat scheme of decoration.]
