. Landscape and figure painters of America. he beautifulcoloring that adds distinction to their works. Hemust have been consciously trying to work out amore satisfactory approximation to their customaryhabit when he undertook the little panel now in theBrooklyn Museum representing a lady, full length,in a landscape, which is seemingly done entirelyover a background of gold.
