FAMED ARTIST !
IS WITH US
The Vancouver World speaks In
the following glowing terms of Con-,
rad Relmyhr, who arrived In 8kag-|
" y*+ terday to sketch some of the
bea&ty places of the district.
Mr. Conrad Selmyhr. one of th*
world's foremost ar'iBtn, is in Van-,
couver awaiting Ue departure of the
Princess May for Alaska, where he
goes to procure material for his eel- 1
ebrated paintings, which he experts j
to eihibit In one of the great art sa
lons in Kurope, together with sever j
a( he has painted in the f'nlted
States, since his arrival In America,
last April.
Mr. Selmyhr has visited and pro
duced replicas of some of the won
derful scenery In the Glacier Nat
ional Park. ?
Mr. James J. Hill, the railroad
magnate, whose collection of art ple-j
lures, worth $100,000, Is reputed to
be Incomparable In America, became
Interested In Mr. Sejmyhr, and was
fortunate enough to secure hta fa
mous painting "The Norwegian
Fjords," one of the gr?at artist's
masterpieces a picture which lives
"I have heard so much of Alaska
and its scenery that I feel I must
go there F do so hope I shall get
sunshine snd not rain a* I fear,
from what I hear, that It is wet
there, but I am very hopeful and
think I shall return to Vancouver
with some good sketches." said the
artist when Interviewed In h's apart
ment in the Vancouver Hotel last i
night.. "This Is indeed a beautiful ?
country."
Mr. Selmyhr comes from Tromtoe.
Norway, "the land of pe-petual sun. '
He Is an artist in every sense of the
word and a glimpse of one of his,
works was an enviable treat H#
was awarded gold medals at the
nrusaels University ln1#o?. and at
Buenos Ay res Centennial In 1910
11 If.
The scenery In parts of America
he has visited Is, he says, very like
that In hta own land and he can see
no reason why artists should leave1
America to obtain portraits as there j
Is unlimited beautiful scenery here |
Mr. Helmyhr went over the White ;
Pass todav ss far as Bennett. He j
Intends remaining here for several j
days until tic can sketch some of the
more inter* sting scenic places In;
the Skagwny district, where he has,
discovered that the sun shines almottt;
irofllinuously.
