International studio . Courtesy tlie ISUNLIGHT Sll.^i ii\ \ IlKMv cilAlvlvl. KiN v\. H; < -ri2. INTERNATIONALSTUDIO VOL. LXXI, No. 281 Copyright. 1920, b]f John Lane Company} AUGUST, 1920 LUKS AND BELLOWSBY AMEEN RIHANIAMERICAN PAINTING, PARTIII. {See May and June issues.)There are things in the personalityof these two American artists that make theirassociation in my mind inevitable. They areboth prodigious, untrammeled, egocentric;they both foster the cosmic consciousness andadopt the Whitman manner. Their attitudetowards Hfe and art is individuahstic; theiroriginaHty is uncommon. In their bull-dogegoism, which is more amusing than offensive,which is even refreshing, the word of thehypocrite is obsolete, the smile of the smugis archaic. They are both worshippers of Artand the Ego in a downright, sincere and thor-oughly modem manner. And they are both sworn enemies of thetawdry and the sentimental. Nature mustsurrender unconditionally to them or eat herown heart. A fig for her sighs and tears!They would drag all her sheltered and cher-ished emotions into the open
