Speicher. Poles apart are Joan Miro and Eugene Speicher who last week gave his first exhibition in five years at Manhattan's Rehn Galleries. With his feet firmly on the ancient tradition of graphic arts, Artist Speicher has grown firmer in his draughtsmanship, more sure of what he wants to say with each passing year. In 1929 he seemed an able, uninspired follower of the late great George Wesley Bellows, without the latter's vivid interest in living problems. In 1934, as in 1929, Eugene Speicher remains wrapped in the penciled brows of his statuesque beauties, though technically...

And everywhere through the magnificent murk sound the great names, like bells: Borgia, Delia Rovere, Medici, Este. Gonzaga, Sforza...

Professor Goodspeed found Isaiah hardest to blue-pencil because of its dignity and swift, smooth literary flow.

...This drilling, trampling foolery in the heart of Europe," said H. G. Wells of Hohenzollern Germany, and twenty years later he finds his echo in the columns of the London Graphic.
