INTRODUCTORY
THIS first loan exhibition of paintings owned by residents of
Rochester is not only interesting because it is the most notable
of any yet held at the Memorial Art Gallery, but because it
gives tangible evidence of the catholicity and the high standard of taste
that have governed the picture lovers of this city in the purchase of works
of art. Unquestionably this exhibition will do much toward stimulating
and increasing a more active and popular interest in painting in Rochester.
It is, too, sure to create justifiable local pride at the quality of the pict-
ures which are lodged here.
The exhibition will e.stablish Rochester's position in the artistic world
on a new plane, for an examination of this catalogue will disclose the
fact that in the collection are some of the most famous names in the
history of painting. The pictures hung in the Gallery cover a wide field
and a period of many years. They comprise the works of American,
English, French, German, Scandinavian, Dutch and Spanish artists, of
international repute and several of whom, at least, are acknowledged to
have been monarchs among painters.
To organize such a collection has been a labor not without difficulties
and the directors of the Gallery wish to express their deep appreciation
of the cordial co-operation of those citizens who have generously de-
prived their own walls, for the summer, of their highly prized canvases.
It is grateful to record that the management, in compiling the exhibition,
was surprised at the wealth of good pictures in the city; There were
sufficient offered to make this summer exhibition an annual event for
several years to come. The number chosen was limited by the available
wall space in the Gallery, as it was the wish of the Director to hang the
paintings, so far as possible, in one line in order to avoid the danger
of crowding them,- thus giving greater opportunity for an arrangement
which makes for harmony in the tone relation of one picture to another.

ful increase in appreciation and in the value of his work.

JEAN BAPTISTE CAMILLE COROT. (French School).
One of the greatest of modern French landscape painters. Born at
Paris, 1796. He was apprenticed to a draper, but ;^oung Corot was
determined to become a painter, and, despite all his parents could
do to dissuade him, he entered, in 1822, the studio of Michallon.
Studied also for a time with Victor Bertin, and later went to Italy.
Exhibited in the Salon of 1827, in the Paris Exposition of 1855, and
in the same year received a first class medal. In the London Exhibi-
tion of 1862 he was one of the artists who represented the French
School. Corot was par excellence the painter of morning; like all
true artists he assimilates all he sees to his inward dream, and the
varied effects of nature uniformly appear to him under the same poetical
vision. He could render with more felicity than anybody else the
silvery light on dewy fields, and the vague foliage of trees mirrored
in calm water. There was always in his work a poetical perfume, which
is .his personality, and is as good as a signature. He died in 1875.

sunshine, and the deep forest in luminous twilight, or Nymphs with
flesh of exquisite tone; and dazzled the eye with all the seductions of

FRANZ HALS. (Dutch School.)
Born at Mechlin, 1584. Died at Haarlem, 1666. Very little is known
of the life of this artist, except that it was a merry one, and that he
was fond of good living. It is said that Carl van Mander, the elder,
was his master. His work stamps him as one of the greatest portrait
painters of all time. His facility of execution was wonderful. He was
much accustomed to paint laughing and grinning faces. His large
pictures of archers and civic guards are to be seen at Haarlem, in the
Hotel de Ville; they are spirited, energetic, rich in color, and happy in
individualism.

Born at Bernwiller, in Alsace, 1829; died^ in Paris, 1905... Pupil of
Ecole des Beaux-Arts, and of Drolling and Picot, Paris. He won the
Prize of RomCj in 1858, with his composition "Adam and Eve Finding
the Body of Abel." While in Rome, Henner began painting pictures
with sombre background of foliage, with green skies and nude figures
with luminous fleshtones and rather hazy outlines. He also painted
numerous portraits and ideal heads' — one of his favorite models being a
young girl with classic features and amber hair. He was awarded
medals at the Salon of 1863, 1865, and 1866; medals of the first class

GEORGE INNESS, N. A. (American School.)
Born, Newburg, N. Y., 1825. Studied under Regis Gignoux in New
York. Later with A, B. Durand, and afterwards abroad. Studied in
Italy for more than a year. Painted a great deal in the environs of
Rome — as did Corot. He visited Europe three times for purposes of
study, but returning to America he always . painted the American land-
scape untrammeled by the influence of foreign scenes or foreign
niethods. He was elected an Associate of the National Academy in
1853, and an Academician in 1868. He died in Scotland in 1894.
Of George Inness, Richard Muther, the distinguished German art critic
and historian, writes: "The life of George Inness was, like that of
Corot, an incessant advance and renewal. Once, he is broad and
powerful, like Rousseau; atgain tender and poetic, like Corot; here,
idyllically pastoral, like Daubigny; there pathetic and brooding, like
Dupre. AH his pictures are broadly painted, deeply felt, fuU-souled
symphonies of tone. The histdry of art must welcome him as one of
the most varied and finest landscape painters of the century." For
years George Inness was recognized as the head of the American
landscape school, and as one of the greatest landscape painters of
our time.

CHARLES EMILE JACQUE.

graver and etcher. When seventeen years old, he studied with a
geographical engraver, but later on enlisted as a soldier and remained
seven years in the army. He then resumed his engraving, and worked
two years in England as a draughtsman on wood. He may be char-
acterized as a rustic artist. He paints farmyard scenes with vigor,
and excels in accurate knowledge of sheep and poultry, of which he is
a fancier. By his truthful pictures of pigs he has earned the sobriquet
of Le Raphael des Parceaux. Medals, third class, 1861, 1863; medal,
1864; Legion of Honor, 1867.

Born in 1855; died, 1904. Pupil of Cabanel and of J. P. Laurens.
Chevalier of the Legion of Honor. A painter df landscape, mostly of
the Vosges district, where he was born. In the earlier works of Mon-
chablon there is a subtle delicacy of treatment and a completeness of
finish in which realism is carried to its extremest point, but in his
more recent productions he retains his deep feeling for nature, and
aims at a broader technique, a more intense coloring, and a striving
to attain those qualities which give to the pictures of the old Dutch
masters their peculiar charm.

JEAN FRANCOIS MILLET. (French School.)
Born at Greville, near Cherbourg, 1815. His parents were peasants
and being unable to afford to give their son an art educatiion, the
authorities of Greville furnished him with means to go to Paris, and
enter the studio of Paul Delaroche. Young Millet, however, showed
no aptitude for historic painting, and after a short stay in the
Delaroche studio, he left that master and went direct to nature fSr
study. He married, and settled at Barbizon, near the Forest of
20
Fontainebleau, and there from the fields and woods, and from the
peasants he took the subjects for his- works. His first contribution to
the Salon was in 1844; to the Paris Exhibition of 1855 he sent
"Peasant Grafting a Tree." In the London Exhibition of 1862, as
also in the Paris Exhibition of 1867, he was represented. The Louvre
and many other public galleries count his work among their most
valued possessions. He was not a prolific painter — executing only about
80 pictures in oil, and a few hundred pastels, lithographs, drawings,
etc. — but gave much thought to his work; he retained his canvases in
his studio, and returned. to them from time to time, in order to give
them exactly the sentiment he wished them to express. Millet died at
Barbizon, in 1875.
