OF "COLGOTHA"
WORLDS BIGGEST PAINTING
MAY BE CUT UP.
Canvas Upon Which Artist Labored
for Thirty-Two Years Has
an Unfortunate
Career.

Chicago.-The biggest painting in
the world. ~"Golgotha." is threatened
with an unheroic end. After being
sold by the United States custom
house in Chicago for $3.50, it is in dan.
ger Of being cut up into theater cur.
tains.
For 80 years the artist. Jan Styka,
labored upon the canvas, and during
the last five years he was assisted by
his son. When completed the picture
is said to have sold for SllS,O00, the
purchaser being a European syndicate.
For several years the painting was eX-
hihited in Paris. Later it was taken 20
various European cities, and ultimate.
~ brought to America.
\ year or more ago "Golgotha" was
placed on exhibition in Chicago. An
old church at No. 1927 Michigan ave.
nue. was prepared for it, and the public
was invited to view the painting,
which is a graphic representation Of
the crucifXion of Christ.
When the painting was brought to
this country ii was placed in bond.
The duty on it was $1,000. but as 1t
was expected to take the picture back
to Europe this tax was held in abey-

been sold three times. the first two
sales not having been confirmed by the
federal court.
The first successful bidder for the
painting vas Thomas S. Reese, who
bought it for 81. 200. The court consid.
cred this sum too small, and the paint
ing was put up at auction again. ID
w. Boone bought it for $3.50. Again
the court refused to let 1t go, and II
was resold to Solomon l.. Lowenthal
a lawyer, and |. N. Weingarten, man
ager Of the Trocadero theater.
During the final sale there were
several bidders, among them being two
Christian ministers and a number OF
Jews. This fact was commented or
as n singular incident in the history
Of the great canvas. The preachers
wanted the picture for church institu
tions.

have no definite purpose in view. Th'
latter believes the painting could b.
divided into four theater curtains
