By THE EDITOR
studyingthe display of art objects at
the Swedish Club, Chicago, we are imIN
pressedwiththe fact thatas a nationis,
so is its art. Or, it mightbe betterto consider race ratherthan nation and, perhaps,
to note the influenceof climateon various
races livingin the same latitude.The people
of Scandinavia, including Denmark, produce an art resemblingthat of northGermany and Russia. It is not that the
designs are the same, but the contrastof
this art with that of southern countries.
Even the painters of pictures from the
north, although they may have received
their education in one of the Latin countries,soon develop theirracial traits,when
again at home. That which is true of the
paintersis true of the industrialart workers. There is a peculiarstylein thesethings
which speaks of the locality from which
they come.
