Interesting Art
Exhibition
A free exhibition of oil paint
ings, portraits and scenes of
Charleston and North Carolina,
was opened to the public yester
day afternoon by Mrs. B. King
Couper at her Rock House Art
Gallery, and will continue through
April 21st. The gallery will be
open to the public every afternoon
from 2 to 6 o’clock.
Mrs. Couper has arranged the
two large rooms comprising the
gallery with a skilfully artistic
touch, providing a perfect setting
for her beautiful paintings. In
the main room green satin cur
tains are drawn over the long
windows at one end, through
which the light filters softly. The
• ictures have been so carefully
hung on the walls of dark paneled
wood, that each tiny detail is
brought out to the fullest extent.
The second room melts into the
first, and has a colorful back
ground of rich blue and gold. An
tique pieces of silver are arranged
n appropriate, places, dogwood in
a blue pitcher adds a touch of na
ture, and long stalks of bamboo
decorate the huge window which
takes up the whole front wall.
Twenty eight pictures are list
ed in the exhibition showing great
variety of subject and talent. “The
Race,” a striking study in brilliant
colors of a boy in a sail boat, is
flanked by “The Old Sport,” a
smaller portrait with a dark- back
ground, in which an old man is
depicted lighting his pipe. “Alta
Vista” is a beautiful painting of
the mountains around Tryon, show
ing all the misty blue loveliness
