TINGEY'S EXHIBITION ' A VERY pleasant hour may be spent JLsi. in looking over the select collection of Water Colours now on view at Messrs. Tingey's, Manners-street. The pictures are by Mr. George C. Haite, an English artist of some repute, and lor charm of feeling as well as excellent technique, are well worth a visit. No. 1, '"A Dutch Canal," with a little group of peasants on the rough landingstage, is a very restful conception and full of excellent drawing. No. 2, "Old Quay, Venice," constitutes a splendid colour contrast to the above, and" would be a lovely picture to live More conventional is No. 4, "A_ Stall in Venice," and the effect is striking. Jusi, the oft-exploited effect of a fruit •stall in the little plaza, with the perspective of a narrow street behind. But the bold shadow of the brown awning above, and the great earthenware pots in the foreground, serve to tone down the brilliant colour of the piled-up masses of fruit and the glare of sunshine on the flags. In Xo. 5, "Rut and Fallow," we find a charming rendering of an English rural scene which few people will fail to appreciate. There is truth and harmony of colouring in the farmhouse nestling under the great elms in the lee of the hill and the bit of rough common in the foreground. No. 6, "St. Jean, Riviera," is really a very fine bit of work technically, though colouring and composition fulfil the popular idea of an oleograph. _ No. 8, "Sunset, Venice," is a most seductive rendering of that favourite point of view in which Venice .is seen with the Campanile on the left. A proup of sailing boats casting their long shadows on the laguna and the great dome of St. Mark's softly silhouetted against the warm afterglow is a lovely atmospheric effect. No. 14, "Boats on the_ Lagoon" — tho last — is not least. Its simple composition, pure colouring, and luminous atmosphere will commend it to every pic-ture-lover."
