 | | It was purchased by a wealthy gentleman of Scotland to be placed on exhibition for one year in the Academy of Fine Arts in Glasgow, Scotland, after which it goes to his private collection of paintings, of which he has a large and valuable collection. |
 | | The season of the year, dullness of business and scarcity of money are generally urged as the cause; but we believe our artists are hibernating, and, like the bats, will not unhook themselves until nature puts on her Spring garments and makes herself presentable for their inspection. |
 | | Munger's picture of the Shoshone Falls, on exhibition at the Art Association's rooms, is so simply faithful, so natural, and unlike a picture, that a majority of the visitors walk past it with a casual glance, not even pausing before it; and yet, it is one of the best paintings in the gallery. |
