MUNSEY'S MAGAZINE.   Vol. XIII.   August, 1895.   No. 5.   p.442

The engraving on page 442 shows one of the last pictures painted by the well known Belgian artist, Joseph Coomans, before his death, which occured in Paris on the last day of 1889. of Cooman' life and work a sketch was published in this magazine some time ago (June, 1892). He left two daughters, Diana and Heva Coomans, both of whom are known in New York and in Paris as clever figure painters. "Sappho," engraved on page 450, is a good specimen of the latter's work, which is always decorative and striking, if not always thoroughly sound in drawing.
