in passing. too, that the Italian Renais-

groups. was also an era Of prOdigious
individualism. What distinguishes the
art Of the eighteenth century is the
greater closeness of its alliance with the
social conditions from which it drew its

The DouCet Collection of XVIIIth
Century Masters.

There was begun in Paris last Wednes-
day and completed yesterday one Of the
most important art sales ever held in
the French capital. 1t dispersed the col
lection OF paintings, drawings, sculpt-
ures and other objects of art which Il
took NJ. Jacques DouCct some forty years
to get together. With these treasures
he had turned his house in the Rue Spon-
TIM not into a museum but into just such
an mtOiClT as might have been presided
over by some princely amateur in the
eighteenth century. During the winter

The impression Of ii that persists IS the
impression of page out of eighteenth
century French life.
Every great artistic period has been a
great social period, and this was peculi-
arly the case with the France Of the
eighteenth century. The spirit Of Greek
life and religion passed into Greek art,
but the latter refined upon the material
in which 1t dealt and expressed the pur-
est elements OF the classic genius. Sim
fairly a certain idealism runs through
all of the multifarious activities OF the
italian Renaissance. The artist and the
craftsman Of that epoch raises to a
