Portrait of the late President McKinley. — We have received from Mr.

W. Heinemann (2s. 6d.) an excellent reproduction of Mr. Nicholson's coloured drawing of the late President. It is striking example of the artist's powers, and shows him at his best. The element of caricature does not at all enter into the picture, and Mr. Nicholson is to be congratulated upon his successful avoidance of the temptation to suggest Napoleon in his handling of the President's features. The drawing is sure to be very popular, and will deserve it.
