Art Exhibit
Sets Living
Picture Date
BY MILDRED QUICK.
"Living Pictures," which have
become a tradition for the open
ing of the annual Nebraska Art
association exhibition each March,
will be presented at 3 p.m. Sun
day to open the 56th annual show,
a bigger and better one than ever
before.
Evidence of preceding a greater
show will be given by the "Pic
tures" because they give a vast
coverage of time, countries and
methods of artistic effort in rep
resenting famous and not so fa
mous masterpieces. Lincoln per
sons, who are members of the
Nebraska Art association, are
properly posed, costumed and
scened to represent works of art,
which number 12 this year.
The Egyptian Queen Nefrete, a
work so old that the artist is not
known, is posed by Martha
Aitken, a Nebraska university
student. The head of this queen,
King Tuts mother-in-law, was
found in Tuts tomb and has been
reproduced in this work. It's
presentation in the "Living Pic
tures" gives the audience a view
of the far past and a beautiful
one, too.
Modern.
Just as modern as Queen Ne
frete was ancient, the showing
will include "Two Harlequins," a
gay colorful picture of a father
and son. It is a work of Picasso,
a French and Spanish painter,
who is considered by many the
world's greatest living one. Sev
eral of his recent works will be
included in the Morrill hall ex
hibition. In contrast to the father and
son "Be Friends," a woman and
young girl, will be modeled by
Mrs. Arthur Whitworth and
Dorothy Linderman of Lincoln.
Created by Bougereau, a nine
teenth century French artist, this
picture has both subdued and
bright colors.
"Mona Lisa," one of the world's
most famous paintings by Leon
ardo da Vinci, a world famous
painter, is shown it brought to
my mind the artist's autobiogra
phy I studied in an art apprecia
tion course. He said, "I set 'Mona
Lisa' in a dream picture bor a of
my imagination, of rocks, wind
ing waters, and hazy green light.
It took all my technical and sci
entific knowledge to penetrate
her personality ... I tried to
penetrate to the inner, mysterious
life of the spirit." When I studied
it it sounded like just a lot of
words, but now after seeing the
picture "Living" I believe it sort
of explains why Da Vinci's "Mona
Lisa" is a famous picture and a
stirring one to see.
Largest.
Direct relation is brought to
Morrill Hall exhibition with "The
Old King" and it seems signifi
cant that it is included in the
"pictures" because it is the ex
hibition's largest and most ex
pensive piece. Other modern pic
tures portrayed are "Portrait of
a Man," "Peter in San Patricio,"
and "Dance Hall Belles," which
show the difference in modern
artists' expression of persons.
The audience will be pleased to
find an infant posing in Cassatt's
"Mother and Child." Mrs. Thomas
Woods, jr., will form the picture
with her baby son.
Two pictures of women are
shown in "Mrs. Davenport" by
Romney, an English painter of the
18th century and "Mme. Yvette
Guilbert", by the French painter
Toulouse Lautreg. The latter is
unusual because the whole figure

that goes into getting the final
