PRAGUE.—Una de las características más interesantes de las recientes exposiciones aquí fue sin duda una gran colección de pinturas de Jakub Obrovsky, un joven artista checo que aquí por primera vez expuso una gran cantidad de su trabajo. Hasta ahora bastante desconocido, apareció de repente ante el público como Amaster. Obrovsky, que es un moravo por nacimiento, asistió a la Academia de Praga, bajo ProfessorPimer, después de haber pasado por la Escuela de Artesanías de Arte de Praga.

International studio . natic. Themodel shows great strength of purpose and harmonyof proportions. A. S. L. PRAGUE.—One of the most interestinj;features in recent exhibitions here was un-doubtedly a large collection of paintingsby Jakub Obrovsky, a young Czech artist, who here for the first time exhibited a greatamount of his work. Hitherto quite unknown, he appeared suddenly before the public as amaster. Obrovsky, who is a Moravian by birth, attended the Prague Academy, under ProfessorPimer, after having passed through the Prague Artsand Crafts School. This early technical trainingperhaps accounts for his strong decorative tendencyand excellent workmanship and for the greatcertainty of his drawing and modelling. But apartfrom this real technical excellence he is a brilliantcolourist, with a special liking for daring chromatic problems, and he astonishes us by his masterlysolution of them. He shows great boldness anddash in his brushwork, combined with a remark-able intensity and unusual brightness of colour.. With few exceptions Obrovsky paints the nudefemale figure—women with skins almost as whiteas a white rose or as brown as a berry, womenwho wear their dazzling nudity without the leastobtrusiveness, in blissful unconcernedness dream-ing in flowery meadows, surrounded by charmingchildren. His compositions overflow with an ecstasyof vigour and passion, which comes from thecolour and not from the object. There is no senti-mentality of any sort in its interpretation. Anabundant producer, he works with astonishing easeand uncommon versatility. No layer on layer ofpigment, no laborious plodding or stodginess areto be found in his pictures. They do not pretendto describe anything in particular, and we mayregard them only as the brilliantvisions of a painter. Whatever hisshortcomings may be—and theyare not great—they are entirelyredeemed by his splendid qualities, which are the fundamental qualitiesof the modern artist.
