Illustrated catalogue of paintings, pastels and water colors collected by the late David CLyall of Brooklyn . BY EUGENE FROMENTIN EUGENE EROMENTIN 93—SOUVENIR OF ALGERIA ^ North Africa is full of surprises in architect-ure, and the subject of this picture shows to whatan extent the artist was impressed by the juxta-position of modern and ancient structures. Amany-arched and half-ruined aqueduct, leadingto an acropolis of moderate height crowned withsimple massive buildings whose rigid lines areagreeably broken by a tower or two, occupies themiddle distance, leaving a glimpse of distant hillsbeyond on the left. The southern sunlight forcesinto strong contrast the masses of architectureand brings out the rich and kaleidoscopic-coloredgarments of a group of Arab horsemen cara-coling over the rough ground as they approachthe citadel. The deep blue sky is broken by a fewgray clouds, and patches of green turf and thefamiliar aloe enrich the rough ground surround-ing the buildings. Signed at the left, Eug. Fromentin. Height, I9y2 inches; length, 36^2 inches. Collection of M. Beugniet, Paris. I I. PRISE DUNE BATTER1E BY PAUL ALEXANDRE PROTAIS P. A. PROTAIS U—PRISE DUNE BATTERIE * Q^ !l This is a battle scene, presumably an episodeof the Crimean War, with a multitude of smallfigures. The first line of a strong force of Zou-aves has just charged a field battery, and a cap-tured gun, surrounded by the enemys slain andthe scattered dead and wounded of the victors, shows that the fight for the piece has been a stub-born one. To the right, and sweeping away ina curve to the smoky distance, a second line ofmen is rushing on to the support of the advance, which is still engaged with the enemy. Throughthe thin veil of drifting smoke are dimly seen dis-tant fields and troops in regular formation. Signed at the left, P. Alex. Protais. Height, 25y2 inches; length, 39^ inches. Painted for Mr. Lyall.
