ART TEACHER AT HOME

(From "The Post's" Representative.) LONDON, May 21. Mr. H. Linley Richardson, R.8.A., art instructor at the Technical School, Palmerston North, is paying his first visit to £he Old Land after an absence of 30 years in New Zealand. He intends to study art —traditional and its later developments—at the various shows, galleries, museums, etc., especially portraiture. During his travels he intends to paint some types of people and their various countries. Mr. Richardson brought with him some of his paintings of Maoris, as well as drawings of children and landscape, and these he proposes later to exhibit in London and elsewhere.' His name is well known to London "art enthusiasts as he has been an exhibiting member of the Royal Society of British Artists in London for many years. He will visit art schools to study the I modern methods of the teaching of art. Since his arrival he has been 1 able to do a good deal of motoring j through Surrey and to renew his acj quaintance with some of the beautiful villages where formerly he painted, j He has been greatly impressed by the beautiful and dignified spring land-' scapes in the south of England and London, and the sight everywhere of the May trees in bloom.
