The house shnds on the top of a hill uni in front of it, is a treat tiled plet- form with I stone helmtrnde and steps leading to the lawn: mid ger- dens townrd the west, In the center foreground is a ragged Culifnrnin live oak and on either side of the platform stand pieces of statuary.

Beyond the sloping hwn‘ are orange groves. then the 'ittpel, have: of San Moreno Ind San Gab- riel. and away in the distance the purple hills. It is I we not unlike Mr. Maxfield Parrish’s "Dream Car- den." Thn front of the residenee is completely covered up to the nm with trumpet vines, and when the writer was there they were covered with hlmwms. On every side in I swvv-p of lawn, To the west of the hotrce is I rose trarden with “It: Undcr "rhea of pink and white roses.

Both the sa-h. the long rink ribbons of her hat are ttaating in the wind, The background is a land- srape with the most of it blue sky and scattered clouds, Looking at the picture from across the room one sees on one side of a door "The Blue Boy" and on the other side this joy~ nus little girl in white and pink. Something over 5375.000 was paid for "Pinkie" and something over 8500,- 000 for "The Blue Boy." These two pictures then represent very nearly 51.000300. One wonders how much Thomas Gainsborough and Thch Lawrence received for them. Not‘ much as prices go today. but still there are no regrets. These toveirl paintings hang where the artists powers can be seen to good advantage. They hang in the beautiful California trunnion of the late Henry E. Hunt- ington who generously gave them to the public. In such a place one real- izes more keenly the skill of Reynolds.

A description of one of Sir Thomas Lawrence‘s called "Pinkie" must suf- tice, It is a full length portrait of Sarah "7ts'3-1795t only daughter of Charles and .Elizabeth Barrett Moul- tun. and an aunt of Elizabeth Barrett “running. Here the aunt who died at " ymrs of am- is a little girl standing and kinking shaply out with gun! animation. The to Gainsborough pointing: in the Huntington gullery seem to arouse the liveliest interest of everyone. This is due perhaps to I report that Mr. lluntinztun paid the Duke of West- m netur something over 3500.000 for "The Blue Buy," one at the best known of Gainstrorough's, portraits. Itne of Gttinsboruturh's critics has -aid th it this piture “leans more to- ward the solid painting of those mid- dle yeah ul the winner's career than to the ethereal quality of his last wurk." Hi, “(irks have . poetical 'quulity and a delicacy that comes out most in his portraits of feminine love- I'mess. Juliana. Lady Petre is nvish~ ingly beautiful" up one critic. "Pen, elupe Ticcountess, Ligonier." writes another "Stands beside I pedestal and statue with billowy drapery in the back ground. Her lovely presence evoked with an unstudied utless stroke," and thus the critics have tried to express the charm that con only be felt by those who normally see these great paintings, Gainsbor- ough painted man)“ regal beauties of his day. Portrait work brought him more 'money than landscapes. His single landscape in this collection "The Cottage Door" a beautiful pie- ture, tom-is interesting when we re- member that Gainsborough here pre- seats the sort of thing he liked best to do. Here) too, are other beautiful Worm " Emma, lady Hamilton. " is said that she was his model for some 40 pu'tures and that he painted her as 1ussartdrts, St. Cecilia.
