Religious Paintings Big Fair Attraction There are no less than seventy- seven religions paintings in the pres- ent Century of Progress exhibition of art at the Art institute. These date from the l3th to the 2th cen- tury. It is worthy of note that beginning with the l6th century there is a not- able falling off 6f religious painting. This was due to the rise of indus- trialism, when trade, when its attend- ant accumulation of wealth,- made fortunes for many citizens. These newly rich merchants created a de- mand for secular subjects, and we see that although the Venetiar painters of Titian's time flot only painted religious 'scenes, but thai they began to delve into Greel mytliology for subjects. In Gallery 46 in the World's Fait collection at the Art institute, there is a remarkable series of seven pan- els, attributed to the Amiens school (Frencli, about 1480). They are all that remain of a large altarpiece painted for the high altar of the an- cient Carthusian Monastery of St. Honore at Thuison, a suburb of Abbeville, which was completely de- stroyed during the 'Frenchi revolu- tion. The subjects of the seven pan- els are "Madonna and Chuld,", "St. John the Baptist," "The Last Sup- per," "The Ascension," "Descent of the Holy Ghost," "Saint Honore," and "St. Hugh, Bishop of Lincoln." Tbey are worthy of close study be- cause of their remarkable state of preservation, and sincerity of their craftsmanship, their riich reds and lively blues, and the decerative quaI- ity of the gold se freely used. T Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Burcli, 163 Abingdon avenue, Kenilworth, are leaving today to motor to Mercer. Wis., where they will visit tlie H. G. and J. A. Petersens for the week-end.

Religious Objeets of Russia Exhibited at Pair Loaned through the courtesy of Dr. Armand Hammer of New York, there is on display at the Hall of Religion at A -Century of Pregress a trio of religious objects from the churcli of old Russia. One is an icen, a religious painting on wood, which hung in one of the imperîi chapels of old Russia. The one displayed is "Our Lady of Vladi- mir" painted in a monastery work- shop in the early l7tb century. Lt is painted after the style of the original icon brought from Constantinople in 1131, later taken to Moscow in 1395, te the great joy of that city. Lt was placed in the Upsenski Sober (cathe- dral). This particular l7th century icon lias recently been cleaned, which lias thrown great liglit on the study, of icons. .The icon lamp which hangs before the icon is liand liammered and pierced in a design of Greek crosses. This bears the initiaIs of the maker and the date 1778 and the mark of St. George slaying the dragon. This particular icon lamp was used in the quarters of the Czar Nicliolai II, in, the Alexander palace. The brocade on whicli the icon is hung is from the imperial chapels andwoven with threads of gold. These, three articles are typical of the finest in Russian-art in the days of imperial rule. In the Hammer collection, now on exhibit at Mar- shall Field and company, there are many beautiful icons and other examples, of the art of early Russia.
