ITALY LOSES NOTED PICTURE.
Famous eiorsione Is Sold Out o.
Kingdom Contrary to Law.

Famous Giorqione ls Sold Out of
Kingdom Contrary to Law.
Rome, Jan. 2.-Excitement has been
caused by the reported disappearance
Of the famous picture, Christ With
the Cross" by Giorgione, originally
preserved In the Loschi palace at VII
cenza. It is reported that the picture
is now in the Mrs. John L. Gardne
collection at Boston, but It's disap
pearance is not yet certain, as tn
present owners Of the Loschi palace RI
fuse to permit an Investigation OF th
report.
The penalty for selling old maste
for removal from italy Is severe, and
It can be proven that the present ow
ers Of the Loschi palace sold the Gi,
gione to Mrs. Gardner they win
subject to heavy fine.
The Loschi palace was designed
Calderari, who, with Palladfo q
scamozzi, formed that trinity in
chitecture which rendered viceI
famous.
Mrs. Gardner 10 Noneommittai.
Boston, Mass, Jan. 2.-Mrs. John
Gardner, who owns the art collect
in the Fenway, this city, would
discuss yesterday the dispatch n
Rome concerning the disappearance
the picture Christ With the Cros
by Giorgione, except to say that
know nothing OF the disappsarance
q noted painting from vicenza.
However, the public catalog ~
Mrs. Gardner's art collection indicated
that 1t contains Giorsione's pscture|
"Head Of Christ" and ti1at this picture
came from the Casa Loschi. Vicenxa.
An inquiry among artists In this de'
yeloped the opinion that the dloYgions
picture cataloged in Mrs. Gardner
collection Is undoubtedly the same re-
ferred to as having disappeared FROM
the Loschi palace at vicenza.
