An exhibition of the Fogg Museum's collection of water colors by American artists has been arranged in the water color gallery and will open today. MacKnight, Homer, Sargent, Preston Dickinson, Edward Hopper, George H. Hallowell, Demuth, Marion Monks Chase, and Susan Bradley are represented.
Many of the pictures are recent acquisitions, added to the collection during the past year through purchase or gift. One of these depicts a scene in Tyrol by J. S. Sargent, which is recognized as one of the finest aquarelles of its kind. A very typical winter scene done by the late George B. Hallowell is also being shown. The snow scenes by Dodge MacKnight, gifts of Dr. Denman W. Ross '75, are noteworthy flowers.
How an old house of the Garfield period in Portland, Me., a dead tree, and a brick wall, all uninteresting objects from an artistic point of view, can make a most expressive picture is well shown in a painting by Edward Hopper, which has been done quite recently.
