The article presents information on Fine Arts in relation to Walter's Art Gallery. The collection of pictures and Oriental bronzes, carvings, enamels made by W.T. Walters has long been famous to connoisseurs as containing some of the most valuable examples of various branches of art, Eastern and Western, known to collectors. It opened last week to invited guests and has been placed at the disposal of the Decorative Art Society for public exhibition for charitable purposes. The collection in the gallery is rich not only in having good examples of various schools, but pictures which have marked phases of these schools and which belong to the history of art--part of the documents on which the art education has been based.
