Palmer C. Hayden is making his first exhibition of paintings at the Civic Club. He has fifteen subjects in all-glimpses of Maine harbors and an occasional landscape. Though uneven, his painting at best has a moving force behind it, a subtle suggestion of depth and inner power. In the gray tones of his "Boothbay Harbor" or in the deeper passages of "Sheepscot" and "Haverstraw" there is an air of quiet detachment. A definite richness of expression is felt in his somber yet glowing color as well as in the sturdy simplicity of his mass.
