FRoNTENAc, MINN.-The Ursuline
nuns of Villa Maria have just had their
chapel beautifully frescoed by J. E. HUI
bert of Minneapolis. The chapel consists
of a nave and apse. The floor of the
sanctuary raised above the main floor of
the chapel, is approached by three steps
curving to the sides. The high altar
stands we'll back in the apse, making a
fine large sanctuary. It is built Of pol
ished hard wood profusely decorated in
gold leaf. The new fresco work is a
harmonious blending of soft colors worked
out in delicate floral designs, and trailing
vines following the lines of the walls and
vaulted ceiling. The prevailing color is
a delicate amber-green tint Over the
side affairs are two scrolls, ornamented
with garlands. Two pilasters, either
side of the entrance to the sanctuary,
have been treated in various bronze eff
fects and are brought into relief by the
colors bordering them. The ceiling Of the
sanctuary is a blue vault studded with
fleecy cloudlets, among which angel faces
look down and angel wings are visible.
In the foreground of this sky picture
hovers the mystic symbol Of the Holy
Ghost in the form Of a brooding silver
dove.
