TRANSCRIPTION
…”At the left, is a composition of still life by Emil Carlsen which challenges comparison with the works of any of the old Dutch masters. There is an iron pot, an earthenware jug, a china bowl, an old iron kettle and a towel on a bench, all painted with such remarkable reality that it seems as if any one of these objects might be lifted and carried away by the observer. And there is nothing of the painstaking minutiae usually found in such work. There is the charm of simplicity in the representation; every inch of the canvas shows the master. Perhaps nothing ever has been painted with a stronger effect of reality than the white bowl in the foreground. One is not impressed by the idea of a long period of painstaking labor, on the part of the artist, but that the work was done by a man to whom wuch expression is easy and in which he finds joy.”…
…”His technique [William M. Chase] is quite different in character from that of Mr. Carlsen, and yet there is a certain relationship between the productions of the two men. Both are in the highest degree realistic; Mr. Carlsen simply carries his work a little farther than does Mr. Chase. At a distance, however, the picture by Mr. Chase seems quite as completely finished in its detail as does that of Mr. Carlsen.”…
