Actors Whose Hobby Is Painting

ممثلون هوايتهم الرسم

Art is a breath that fills the soul with songs, poems and melodies — or with paintings and legends!

The inclination to practice the arts in their various kinds grows ever stronger; these pictures are devoted to actors whose hobby is painting, and who turn to its spring after the toil of the stage and the din of the screen!...

1 - As for "Corinne Calvet," it is the touch of artistic melancholy that captivates her; you see her passing her brush over the face of a "homeless woman."

2 - And "Jan Sterling" appears plainer and closer to everyday life!... in a sitting of contemplation and admiration before her painting "From the Street."

3 - Charlton Heston, a specialist in staging scenes from Shakespeare's plays; here he is before his favorite painting, "Macbeth."
