AN ART EXHIBITION IN AUCKLAND.
An exhibition of art work by Australian and other artists of repute has attracted the attention of lovers of art in Auckland during the past week. Some of the most interesting, and certainly some of the finest exhibits shewn are those in black and white by Swinton Diston, F. B. Schell, and other fine artists. One or two of these pictures are the originals of the fine engravings drawn for the ‘Picturesque Atlas.’ There is a fine picture of the mail steamer leaving Auckland wharf, and another, sure to command admiration, of Lyttelton Harbour. A fine picture of Wellington is one of the most noticeable in the exhibition, and a pretty view of the Cemetry Bridge and gully in Auckland will be certain to please all who have enjoyed the original vista. Altogether the exhibition is well worth a visit, the oils and water colours also being worthy of prolonged inspection.
