Though the work was listed as an oil print after Remas he had brandt, it was seen at once a portrait by Tiepolo. Bcueath Experts Eyes His eye was sharp. He also was lucky. It is one thing to come across Tiepolos by accident, it is another to discover lost Raphaels. Oberhuber does not find his Raphaels in junk shops, but beneath the eyes of experts who have looked but have not seen. fa-th- The touring Youre a Good production Man, Charlie Brown, based on the popular Charles Schulz cartoon Peanuts, will be presented Tuesday at 8 p.m. at Weber State College. The performance, featuring the entire tour cast, is produced by Arthur Whitelaw and Gene Persson and directed by Joseph Hardy. .

Two years ago he found another Raphael original, an oil portrait of as Pope Julius II, hanging a copy in Britain's National Gallery. Since then he has helped authenticate a third, a portrait of Lorenzo de Medici that had been auctioned twice as an inferior work, once by once by Parke-BerneChristie's, in the past decade.

Konrad is to Raphaels as a truffle hound to truffles, says one admiring colleague. He manages to sniff them out where other men are blind. didnt. "dnee On the art scene are By George Dibble ly visual mechanics, presenting formal aspects of the problem with little of the excitement of natural objects conveyed to the viewer. There is a somewhat gen-- ' eral approach to a problem that appears to demand fairly ordinary answers. The landscapist scores highest when the amenities of visual proportion, perspective and composition serve the feelings of the painter. Through the generosity of Salt Lake City collectors the Utah Museum of Fine Arts is presenting an impressive display of art objects from Buddhist cultures. The array of porcelain, carved ivory, jade, bronze painted Dobson chooses a commona rural fenceline in which a strong vertical accent formed by the tree located near the center of the design served as an axial point from which other elements move. Couched in pleasing and lively color it is one of the outstanding items in the show. Beverly place idea screens, together with items in the permanent collechas been tion, arranged by Museum Director E. Francis Sanguinef-t- i Mr. Dibble and his staff to show developments in Chinese, Japanese and Javanese art. Delicate Leaves Paul Kuhni senses a spate of delicate autumnal leaves as a golden curtain, and drenched with color. Fresented in strong backlighting, the idea gets across. Lenora Ferro employs leserved color in a severe manner, with interesting results. DeAna McDonaiJs Medicine Falls treats a fairly commonplace subject, but the rendering is fluent and in strong hues. Verla Birrells landscape of the red rock country reflects magnificent scale, but foreground treatment is somewhat disparate m treatment.

There is nothing essentially faulty about such an approach if the visual appeal can be made poignantly enough. A considerable number of works are involved with pure- - of n landscapes. Robert Rumel and Richard Milne are pursuing a novel idea that has worked well in Sausalito, Los Gatos and other locations in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Most scholars of this century looked at all those books and turned to other fields. Oberhuber has learned to look at Raphael with a 20th Century eye; he searches not for moral purity, but for a subtle harmony, for a sense of air around the figures, a sure and p: arise line. When he saw a photograp of the lost Lorenzo, he put a note beside the picture: looks like the real thing.
