The Savannah morning news., 1902-11-19

Cable advices received in New York
record yet another instance of success
in the American invasion of Europe.
1t is, however, on this occasion not an
industrial or commercial triumph alone.
but an artistic one which is so chron-
i5led. The International Exposition of
Decorative Art, under the patronage of
King Victor Emmanuel II, has, during
the past summer, attracted to Turin
not only the German Emperor, but
thousands of visitors from the four
quarters of the globe. This week the
final awards of the judges in the vari-
Gus sections were made known, and it
appears that in one department at
least America has carried off the high
est honors. The Gorham Manufactur-
ing Company of New York has re-
ceived the gold medal or the highest
award bestowed on silverware for it's
exhibit of finely wrought silver. The
competition between the nations was
exceptionally keen, England, Germany.
Russia, Austria, Italy, Switzerland and
France Vieing with each other and with
the United States to carry off the hon
ors in every department of the Applied
Arts. The Gorham exhibit included
over hundred pieces, ranging from
specimen forks and spoons to elaborate
centerpleceS and loving cups of Mar
tele and Athenic ware. Combinations
of silver and cutglass were also shown
and it is said that the whole exhibit
which occupied one of the most proni-
nent places in the building, was little
snort OF revelation to European art
craftsmen.
