Competition plentiful for Carter Trophy Continued from page 22 Eakins introduced an advanced version of the French atelier system into the Academy. In 1888, Mr. Reidand his wife travelled to Paris and joined several other Canadian students at the Academies Julian and Cola- rossi, where he learned to apply the veneer of impressionism to a firm academic base. In 1889, he was elected a member of the Royal Canadian Academy. Soon after his return to Toronto, Mr. Reid began to teach at the Central Ontario School of Art and Design, where he was later principal from 1912-18. Busy Toronto theatre season set to open With close to 100 professional theatre companies, Toronto is the secondlargesttheatrecentre in North America. The fall season brings Larry Shure’s hit comedy, The Foreign­ er, to the Royal Alexandra Theatre, Sept. 8 to Oct. 18. From Oct. 21 to 26, the Royal Alex welcomes the 90-member Berliner Ensemble on their first North American visit. They will perform two works in German by Bertolt Brecht, The Three Penny Opera and The Caucasian Chalk Circle. A lavish production of Gilbert and Sulli­ van’s Mikado follows, from Nov. 4 to Dec. 13. The Canadian Opera Company opens its season on Sept. 12 with the pageantry and grandeur of Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov, a historical drama based on the 17th century Tsar Boris. Verdi’s Mac­ beth opens Sept. 19 and alternates with Godunov until Oct. 4. Canada’s favorite musical, Anne of Green Gables, is at the O’Keefe Centre from Oct. 6 to 18. The title of the exhibition, Sympathetic Realism, refers to a term used by a contemporary reviewer in 1895 to describe Mr. Reid’s large-scale gentre scenes, which almost always tell a moving, moral tale. This type of picture, which later fell out of favor, enjoyed tremen­ dous popularity in the late 19th century. Mr. Reid has always had a special place in the history of the Art Gallery of Ontario. He was part of that group of enlightened men, whoinl910, formed a committee to establish the first permanent art gallery in Toronto, the Art Mus­ eum of Toronto, now AGO. Also at the O’Keefe, the National Ballet of Canada opens with The Merry Widow, Nov. 8 to 16, followed by Giselle Nov. 20 to 30.
