A 1900 essay from Brush and Pencil arguing that public demand for art in the United States is growing. The author cites the Columbian Exposition, art in public schools, women's club art study, and rising interest in craftsmen's work. A short passage mentions rugs and portières made by rural women in Maine, New Hampshire and Georgia under the patronage of Candace Wheeler. The scan opens with the end of an article on E. E. Simmons and includes a halftone of his mural 'The Justice of the Law' and a portrait of the author.
