ART  EDUCATION.

on  exliibition  were  rather  overladen  with  Ornament.  In  the
larger  modellings  and  in  the  wood-carvings,  the  imitation  of
German  motives  is  more  prevalent.  (
Gmünd.  —  Special  attention  is  paid  to  the  manipulation  of  the
metals,  and  the  thorough  training  of  engravers,  chasers,  &c.
Very  beautiful  drawings  from  antique  examples  were  exhibited,  as
well  as  finished  works  in  metal  of  exquisite  execution.
Giengen.—Well  executed  Ornaments  in  crayon  and  in  red  chalk
from  casts,  and  building  drawings.
Ehingen.—Architecture,  furniture,  vessels,  &c.,  some  of  them
very  beautifully  carried  out  in  color.
Hall.  —-  Prettj-  drawings  of  decorative  motives,  only  somewhat
hard  in  color  ;  studies  in  descriptive  geometry.
Heilbronn.  —  Nearly  all  branches  of  industrial  drawing  ;  beautifully
  drawn  Ornaments  from  casts,  especially  worthy  pf  notice.
The  same  is  true  of  Balingen.
Ludwigsburg.  —  Mostly  decorative  motives  in  color  for  decorators,
  paper-hangers,  &c.,  also  projection  and  machine  drawing. ­

Sulgau.  —  Good  architectural  drawings  and  wood-carvings,
principally  in  the  Gothic  style.
Ravensburg.  —  All  branches  of  drawing;  above  all  beautiful
projections  and  topographical  drawings;  also  good  color-studies
in  oil.
Rottweil.—All  branches  of  drawing.  Freehand  drawing  practiced
  with  all  materials  ;  special  mention  must  be  made  of  beautiful ­
  copies  from  Calame’s  landscapes.  In  linear  drawing,  very
pretty  projections  and  stone  construction.  Good  modellings  for
architectural  decorations,  and  tasty  carvings  in  wood  and  ivory,
were  likewise  exhibited.
Rottenburg.  —  Beautiful  drawings  from  casts,  as  mentioned
above;  a  large  frame  carved  in  wood,  but  rather  overladen  with
ornamental  work  ;  also  a  large  frame  of  a  more  architectural  nature,
in  plaster,  and  very  humorous  groups  of  animals  in  wood.
Schiveningen.—Principally  small  landscapes,  flowers,  &c.,  in  oil,
such  as  are  used  by  the  manufacturers  of  clocks  in  the  Black
Forest.
