WAR PAINTINGS FROM BRITAIN
EXHIBITION IN N.Z. PLANNED (P.A.) WELLINGTON, October 26. Some examples of paintings by Britain’s war artists are in the possession of the Governor-General,. Sir Cyril Newall, according to an announcement he made at the opening of the New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts exhibition at the National Art Gallery last night. Among them is a fine painting “Return at Dawn,” by Charles Cundall, A.R.A. His Excellency said he might have exhibited these paintings before this, except for the fact that more of them were coming out to the High Commissioner for the United Kingdom, Sir Harry Batterbee. There would be some 60 or 70 of them. When they arrived they, with the collection he had, would be shown in the main centres of both islands and in other places that might be possible.
