Fine Arts – We have been favoured with a view of a portrait of Miss Sara Flower, from the pencil of Mr. Charles Rodius, who has lately returned from an artistic exploration of Port Phillip. The likeness of the celebrated cantatrice is admirable; her joyous expression is felicitously hit off, and the drawing of the figure accurately preserved. A careful lithograph of the portrait would meet a ready sale amongst the numerous admirers of the talented songstress.
