EUROPE HAS INFLUENCE A strong European influence} can be seen in the works of the scultpor Francois Baillaigre and the painter Francois Beaucourt. The latter's Esclave a la Na-} ture-Morte, now in the National Gallery, became "a unique pic- ture in Canada, where all pre- vious art had been purely func- tional." Pictures painted during the coveries in early Canadian art were reviewed by Dr. R. H. Hubbard, Chief Curator of the National Gallery in Ottawa, in a lecture before the Royal So- ciety.
