Rehs Galleries Features On-Line Exhibition

NEW YORK CITY -- Rehs Galleries, Inc, specializing in important Academic and

Realist works of the Nineteenth Century, will add its first update to its

recently launched web site -- "Daniel Ridgway Knight -- His Years at

Rolleboise." This exhibition features 14 important paintings that were sold by

the gallery and were executed during the artist's stay in Rolleboise.

Among the works that have been included are "The Grape Harvest" (Knight's

Paris Salon entry of 1905) and "Maria and Madeleine on the Terrace" -- a

marvelous, early work from this period featuring two of Ridgway Knight's

prettiest models.

The works illustrated span almost the entire period -- the earliest dating

from circa 1898 and ending with his large, important work entitled

"Spring-time," painted in 1921. Along with the exhibition is a short biography

of the artist.

The site can be reached by typing in either "Rehsgalleries.com" or "Rehs.com"

and clicking on the "Virtual Exhibitions" page. The first of these exhibitions

features the works of the French Realist artist Julien Dupre (1851-1910).

All images have been scanned in high-resolution format and each work can be

enlarged for a more detailed inspection. Though none of the works featured in

the exhibit is available for sale, the gallery currently has three works by

the artist in inventory.

Rehs Galleries, Inc is located at 5 East 57th Street. Telephone 212/355-5710.
