THE LOAN EXHIBITION OF FLEMISH PAINTING IN THE FOGG MUSEUM, HARVARD UNIVERSITY.
By G. H. EDGELL.
The great war which has devastated Flanders has obviously played havoc with the country's works of art. We know the fate of the Last Supper, "one of the half-dozen masterpieces in the world," by Dirk Bouts, formerly in the Church of St. Pierre at Louvain, and of the many other masterpieces destroyed by fire, by shell, lost, looted, or "removed for conservation." The present exhibition of Flemish paintings at Harvard, though not large, is of the greatest interest to the student and the lover of art, and is a monument to the taste and energy of the directors and the generosity of the many who have lent from their private collections a number of important works, ranging in date from the early work of the great medieval Flemings through the sumptuous art of the seventeenth-century masters to the delicate and refined works of the eighteenth century. To this list of names may be added a number of original drawings by Flemish masters.
The earliest and in some respects the most important painting is a panel representing the Adoration of the Magi, attributed to Melchior Broederlam, a painter of the fourteenth century, who was born at Ypres. This panel is one of the earliest works in the exhibition, and is of great interest as showing the transition from the medieval to the modern style. It is a triptych, and is painted on both sides. The central panel, representing the Adoration, is painted on the reverse with the journey of the Magi, and the wings are painted on the reverse with the presentation of Christ in the Temple and the flight into Egypt. The painting is interesting as showing the influence of the Italian school, and is remarkable for the delicacy of the drawing and the richness of the color.
The exhibition contains a number of works by the great masters of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Among these may be mentioned the portrait of a man by Rogier van der Weyden, a painter of the fifteenth century, who was born at Tournai. The portrait is a striking example of the artist's power of characterization, and is remarkable for the delicacy of the drawing and the richness of the color. There is also a portrait of a man by Hans Memling, a painter of the fifteenth century, who was born at Seligenstadt. The portrait is a striking example of the artist's power of characterization, and is remarkable for the delicacy of the drawing and the richness of the color.
The exhibition contains a number of works by the great masters of the seventeenth century. Among these may be mentioned the portrait of a man by Peter Paul Rubens, a painter of the seventeenth century, who was born at Siegen. The portrait is a striking example of the artist's power of characterization, and is remarkable for the delicacy of the drawing and the richness of the color. There is also a portrait of a man by Anthony van Dyck, a painter of the seventeenth century, who was born at Antwerp. The portrait is a striking example of the artist's power of characterization, and is remarkable for the delicacy of the drawing and the richness of the color.
