WOMEN IN THE FINE ARTS


Mr. Harrison N. Howard, in Brush and Pencil^ writing of the exhibition of the National Academy of Design, says: "Belle Havens' the ’Last Load' is part and parcel with her other cart-and-horse compositions, commonplace and prosaic in subject, but rendered naturally and forcefully and with no small measure of atmospheric effect. The picture is not one of the winsome sort, and it doubtless makes less appeal to the spectator than any other of the prize-winners."
