About this issue

This issue features "Artists and Their Work," a section on contemporary art and the art market. The opening article, "Wasted Art," laments that wealthy New York mansions closed during summer contain valuable painting collections rarely seen by the public, suggesting loans to the Metropolitan Museum. The piece highlights younger American painter Harry W. Watrous, born San Francisco 1857, who studied in Spain and Paris under Bonnat and Lefebvre, won the Clarke Prize for his painting "Bills" at the Academy exhibition. Additional articles address art market fluctuations, documenting price trends for works by Landseer and Constable, and expose widespread art fraud affecting wealthy Western collectors. A piece on Americans in the Luxembourg gallery corrects prior attribution, crediting Henry Mosler's "Prodigal's Return" (1879) as the first American work acquired by that institution. An essay titled "A Lesson from Japan" contrasts Japanese respect for decorative arts with American vandalism of public sculpture. The issue concludes with a biographical article on Cecil John Rhodes, titled "The Diamond King," by W. Freeman Day, chronicling Rhodes' consolidation of the De Beers diamond monopoly controlling world supply.
