CHAPTER X. CHURCH AND SCHOOL SOCIALS ART EXHIBITIONS--LIST OF EXHIBITORS--"ARTISTS"--CURIOSITIES--EXPLANATIONS-- SUGGESTIONS "ART" EXHIBITION The elaborate "sell" which goes by this name used to be a regular institution in church bazaars and might well be rejuvenated as a novelty. A regular printed catalogue is got up, containing apparently the names of a collection of pictures or sculptures, each object duly numbered and with the name of the artist appended. In some instances the name of a (supposed) picture is followed by an appropriate quotation in poetry or prose, after the orthodox fashion of art galleries. We append, by way of illustration, a selection from the catalogue of a collection which has met with great success: EXHIBITION OF THE WORKS OF LIVING ARTISTS PART I. WORKS OF ART 1. Horse Fair After Rosa Bonheur. |
