...other foolish titles. A bald and portly Latin with a bushy moustache which grows lighter in color and smaller with the years, Zuloaga is spectacularly and entirely Spanish. His work, though loud, is sound. Like many fashionable artists, he has ingratiating traits of personality which cause his patrons to regard him as a gentle and delectable monster. When he exhibited in the U. S. four years ago, he sold $100,000 of paintings on the first day of the show and Governor Fuller outdid himself in buying one small canvas for $35,000.
