THE STUDIOUS ALCHEMIST Artist Unknown
No. 133 in the Berolaheimer Series of Alcheg&al and Historical Reproductions comes to us from Mr. Arthur L i e , who presented the original to the undersigned. It has been cleaned, revarnished, and framed, and presented to The Chemists’ Club, New York, and hangs there in Room B. Absolutely nothing is known concerning this painting. It is 1 5 l / ~by 21 inches in size and is on a plywood panel, hence must be modern. It may be that this is a copy from an older original unknown to us. It has the general appearance of German work. Any one having a copy of a picture similar t o this will confer a favor by communicating details to the address as below.
