In the bright path- way of the light a dark-hulled side-wheeled steamer, rigged with masts and yards, is lying head-on, and farther away on either side various sailing boats are under way, veiled in the vaporous mist. Signed at the lower left: H. Farrer, 1875. Height, 1414 inches; length, 21%, inches. HENRY FARRER AMERICAN: 1843—1903 615—SuNsET (Water color.) Water wavering gently in a light breeze stretches from the fore- ground to the far distance on the left, and on the right to what is probably the low Long Island shore, already dimmed in the ap- proach of evening. The sky is a mass of red and yellow sunset lights, crossed by strata of dark blue cloud, its glow reflected in the water. In the middle distance a sailboat is headed shoreward. Signed at the lower left: H. Farrer, 1875. Height, 1414 inches; length, 2214, inches. WILLIAM MAGRATH, N.A. AMERICAN: 1838— 616—GRANDFATHER’S PRIDE (Water color.) A corner of an Irish peasant’s cottage projects into view from the right, its walls gray-white under a brown-thatched roof tinged with yellow-green. In the open doorway a young woman stands with her knitting in hand. Her small son has come out to meet the grandfather (and receive an apple). The old man is bent, and, leaning on a stick, rests an affectionate hand on the boy’s head. Signed at the lower right: W. Macratn, 1875. Height, 16 inches; width, 12 inches. Friday Evening Sale, February 26th WILLIAM MAGRATH, N.A. AMERICAN: 1838— 617—Gor1ne For WATER (Water color.) Coming down a gentle incline, in a rambling sandy path through the flower-dotted fresh green grass of a wild field, a bright-eyed young peasant woman of the Emerald Isle is on her way to well or stream for water. She is bare-footed and bare-armed. A white kerchief is tied over her dark waist, and her skirts and apron show a light, tender blue, reddish-brown, gray and a deep, opulent blue. Signed at the lower right: W. Macrarn, 1875. Height, 16 inches; width, 1214, inches. JOHN THORPE CoNTEMPORARY 618—CaTTLE (Water color.) | A flat meadow, yellow-green in the sunlight, is bounded in the dis- tance by low hills under a gray sky, and there are suggestions of habitations. The broad land holds numerous cattle, and in the foreground a group of ten of them—red, black and dun cows—are seen close at hand in a group, one standing, the others lying down in various attitudes, their shadows spotting the grass. Signed at the lower right: Jno. Tuorre, 1876. Height, 15 inches; length, 22 inches. J. FRANK CURRIER AMERICAN: 1843—1809 619—Bavarian TREES (Water color.) On a green ridge crossing the vision and receding toward the left distance two separate groups of trees attracted the artist’s eye. The nearer group on the right displays its wandering limbs in their dark ramifications, while the farther trees merge their foliage. hen nk = pee nn bin ae anne en ban fant tiene rereresette. = weesun an SeaR eke serra ———— Hadi HH i H 1 iat ‘} 4 al ie igs ty Heiyte re RE Ne RS EE bie seem 9 Se OT : Rat tat iether ea ore tot takes Het Hi a + if H Asis ‘ i f F agit i ; nit idved Hig i. ty NSPE AULT SEALER ADT ie!
