Three Beautiful Studies From the Brush of Hugo Ballin, Artist The three studies on these two pages serve best to show the charming man Jner of Hugo Ballin. “An Evening Son^” on the opposite page is owned by W. T. Evans of New York City. The austere, medieval charm of this portrait is apparent even to the layman. “Susanna and the Elders” is in the home of Robert W. Chambers. It is a sympathetic and original handling of this favorite 4 subject. The exquisite mural on this page is a vivid example of the poetry and feeling Hugo Ballin put into his painting. We do not wish to lose this man from the movies, but the world is a better place for beauty like this and we would be grateful for more of it L SKETCH FOR MURAL DECORATION I (Thirty-nine)
