...view now is a sampler of works by member artists Jackie Bayne, Tom Cole, Michael Long, Erica Moody, Steve Morell, Rebecca Tasker and Mitch Rosenberg, selected by Bernie Toale of the Bernard Toale Gallery. Of note are Steve Morell's precious schoolroom-esque doodles and Tom Cole's incisive installation art-cum-social commentary.

What the original canvases for those covers make plain is that he was a painter of great if anachronistic gifts. He carried into the 20th century the ancient pleasures of visual storytelling and fine-grained description. These happen to be the same enjoyments that...
