But lliry Worry Aliout
Their Hair W liilr Women
Think of Jewel*
Boston. Fob. 4. WoiiH-n like
to have their portraits painted,
bat men do not.
This Is the* opinion of John
Young-Hunter, a Scotchman who
is a medalist of tho Royal Acitd
emy and who has painted many of
America's and Britain's great.
Men ftsually have their portrait*
painted because their families
' "bare pushed thein Into It;" wo
men because they have adroitly
persuaded their families to push
them into it. lie Haid.
As to which sex displays the
more vanity during and after the
process of palntiug a picture, Mr.
Ytittng-H 11 liter is doubtful.
" ^They're ho different." he ex
plained. "A man usually Is con
cerned about his hair, no matter
how small an amount he may
hare, snd his moustache, total
ly, nothing else matters. Women
aometimes like to have their
V?pM of pearls made a lltle larg
er than they really are."
One well known banker, bow
ever, emphatically urged the artist
not to paint the wrinkles in his
coat sleeves.
Children and very old persons ,
are the easiest to puint. Mr.
Young-Hunter finds. - Children
know so little and old folks know ?
so much that they do not embar
rass the artist with criticisms and
suggestions and arc not overwor- ?
ried over the outcome of his ef
forts.
I .fine disadvantage in painting
children. however. Is that their
parents are so hard to Hutisfv. No
artist could make them as beau
tiful as their parents believe they
ato.
?Husbands also sometime* are
critical. One woman looked a*,
her finished portrait and ex- 1
claimed. "Am I really as lovely as ,
that?" Her husband's comment 1
was, "That Isn't my little Mary."
A seemingly harmless bit of
flattery on the part of their
frlends sometimes tends to make,
men and women dissatisfied with
tho pictures of themselves that
they themselves have ndmlred. It
1b a trite saying, but lots'of folks
believe it when their friends say,
doesn't do you Justice."
Besides his art 1st le ability the
portrait painter inust possess'
some of the qualities of a dlplo- ;
mat. Mr. Young-lluiiter does not
permit his subjects to see their
pictures before they are finished,
antl sometimes It .requires con
siderable tact to hold off the an- 1
xlous captain of finance or Indus- ,
who Is used to having thing:: i
bis own way.
The Scotch artist works rapid- 1
ly. He usually completes a por
trait in three or four sittings of i
from an hour and a half to two '
hours each. He has painted un- |
der varying conditions, the por- i
tnsJt of a well known figure In j
American life having been done |
