 NEW YORK. 
 
 THIS work of art represents the Canadiau or Horseshoe Falls, 
 and was painted dnrintr the year following rebrnarv, 1885, 
 from sketches made at that time. It was first exhibited at 
 Wnnderlich's Galler}' iu this City, where it received a very tlat- 
 tering reception by the press an<^ public. It has since been on 
 exhibition at ilie Minnesota Industrial Fair in Minneapolis ; at 
 Henry iivaves A- Company, o Pall Mall, London, and ai the 
 American Exhibition in London. Wo submit herewith extracts 
 from the many friendly criticisms received by the artist while the 
 painting was on exhibition heretofore in this City.

 I From Till Aur Ynil; Stiir.] 
 
 Mr. RditT. J. I'.VTTISDN. set himself a ilitHiult task in atteniplliip to 
 paint Niagara. Many people lielieve that .Niagara eannot lie painted, or 
 that, if the snh.ji ct he undertaken at all.it should lietriatid with simple, 
 hroad suggest iveness. Mr. Pattisoii's Niagara is an nniisiially large 
 work and is a literal representation of the Falls and their surroumlings. 
 The picture has, in the foreground, the road extending along the Cana- 
 dian shore. The Horseshoe Falls is made the point of interest of the 
 eomposition. The river oeeiipies a consideralile portion of the canvas. 
 Trees and rocks covered with ice and sno v, till the e.xtremc left: the 
 rapiil<4 and a wide space of sky. form the upper portion of the composi- 
 tion, which ends in a hit of woodland at 'he right. The ditilcnity of 
 keeping the ditferenl elements of this panoramic composilion united, anil 
 in their proper place, is very great. It must lie said that Mr. I'attison 
 has aci|iiitteil hiniseli crediiahly. His Niagara hears the impress of care 
 fill thought and study and it will make a lepnt.ition lor the painter. 
 
 I'lie well known artist and clitic FliANK Hki.i.f:w. in the Tf.mx Sif'liii//.s 
 speaking of the painting, says ; •A\\\ one who has ever seen this monarch 
 of the cataracts in its mail of ice. can never forgi't the >pecl,icle. (Iranil. 
 hoary, veneralile, like an aged viking. To. all sinli. a^ well as to .ill 
 others, for that matter, the picture of Mr. R. J. P.vTTlsnx. now on e.v- 
 hihitiiin in Wuniierlicirs Gallery in New York City, will lie a treat of no 
 mean order. « * * * The atmospheric etfect is tender ami yet powerful. 
 It i.< the iron hand of art in the velvet hainl of skill."

 It is made for elfect and produces elTcct Fully four IVet longer Ih.in 
 the celehrated Niagar.a of Church, PattISiiN's picture succeeds in pro- 
 ducing etfectively, the impression of a 'liar winter afternoon. The 
 artist has lieeii particularly successful in his air and w.ilcr i Ifccis. with 
 which the cloud formations and the foam rising to the sky harmonizes in 
 the happiest manner. ( )m i- the li!ick-grounil of the landscape there 
 hovers a rare poetic charm, which iiintrasts forcilily with the trealmeiil 
 . •' the whirlpool ^1 the lioltoiii of the roaring ahyss. I'aiti-ons painting 
 is iindoiil teilly one of the most remarkiilile attempts to do jii>tice hy the 
 means of ,irt, to the lolo^sal wonder of nature. The work, which i> well

 .Mr. PattIson's lar^e paiiiliiiK <. '-Niauaia I-.dls in Winter." is now 
 on exhililtion at Wunderlicirs. Jlr. Paitison iindiilook a diihcuit task 
 when he set out to )iut Niagara on < anvf.ss and he has e.Necuted it well. 
 Nianara is essentially an unpaintalile suli.ject and the artist who nttcinpts 
 to render its siiMiniities defies fate. The trentinent of the picture un.ler 
 consideration is panoramic. .\t the right is the road along the Cmadiar. 
 shore, which comes olili<|uely dow/i the forecroiiuil. The river the 
 lIorsesluM' Falls, the wide stretch of the raj ids ali.ive the FalV:, and the 
 <liimps of snowy trees, all are included in the coiiip(isition. There is ^OIlle 
 excellent painting of snow and of water : and it gives evideiuc of consci- 
 entious stiicly and careful cxeciitioii. The effects of light are tnithfiil, and 
 the colors are giMid. The painter has Iriuniphed over the ditliciilties of 
 keeping so large a iiiiture tog-ther, and has infused a great deal of artistic 
 interest iiitu his work.
