This show focuses primarily on the School of Paris. It includes some pleasant watercolors and gouaches of Renoir, an interesting, predominantly black Miró gouache, a Meitzinger still life; a couple of small, tasteful Braques, and so on. The most significant aspect of this group of pictures is in their ability to show just how shallow a major Venard looks when hung alongside the most minor work of the older Parisian masters. The exhibition also includes a Clave and two Noyers, which also make the older work look better by comparison.
