With all their artistic and architectural
past, with imperiohahle monuments star
ring their city. with the grand gothic Of
the Duomo and the lily bloom of the bell
tower, with the stately magnifcence Of
scores of palaces with the spring of arch,
the point of spire, the infinite delcacy of
handiwork in wood and iron and stone; in
short, with the proiusene,s of the beautiful
which lies all about them, Florentines
ought to know better
The vandalism of Florence is but copy
of the vandalism of Rome, which has gone
on until now old Rome is dismantled and
is rapidly becoming the most modern city
of Italy.
Here are commonplace, dreary squares,
rows and streets of blank, hideous houses;
windows and doors cut off by the yard, and
such interiors, Here in Italy. home of the
Arts Verify the Arts are slumbering.
Out of it all have evolved for myself a
comforting reflection. From the shadows
of her misty bygone years, having shaken
off the shackles of oppression and super
stitiol, young Italy is reaching out eagerly
toward all that is fresh and clean and mod
ern.
Let us have patience, we are modern
ourselves.
But Just rs we discriminate between
good gothic and bad gothic, the genera
tions to come will discriminate between
good modern and bad modern. Hitherto
have asked myself why should America
be sneered at and despI-ed for crudities of
art or mannersY She has had mightier
work to do than erect campaniles, round
cupolas, chip out statues or polish her
speech. These things are the flower of a
healthy, deep rooted civilization, and our
America is planted SO deep that the flower
must one day bloom. -Jeanie p Rudel in
Kate Fields Washington.
