painting attributed to Giovanni Tie
polo, the great master of the late
Venetian school of painting. 1t rep
resents a marriage festival, and is
indescribably rich and gorgeous.
Tiepolo's work was the last glorious,
dying effulgence of Italian Renais-
sance art.
With the exception Of this ceiling
there are no paintings in this gall
lery. The result is very pleasing
and interesting, and sets off the
wonderful collection of enamels and
other precious objects most effec-
lively. Mr.. Ryan has at present few
paintings. Among those he has are
twelve fine works by Sorolla, the
Spanish artist, hanging in various
parts Of the house. A new picture
gallery is being built on Sixty-sev-
enth street, in connection with the
Ryan house, and it is reasonable to
predict that this will be filled with
pictures On the Sixty-eighth street
corner of the block Mr.. Ryan has
acquired the old Yerkes house and
art gallery, which will be principally
used as the. siteA of an Italian
garden.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-07-13

LEADING place among the great
Ia art collectors of New York has
WIN been quietly taken by Thomas
- Fortune Ryan. In his great
house at Sixty-seventh street and Fifth
avenue he has amassed a collection of
treasures which are not surpassed in value
and rarity by those of any other connois-
seur.
The collection is especially rich In objects
of religious art. In this respect it is sur.
passed by the ]. Pierpont Morgan collection
In size only. but not in the quality of the
objects.
The gems of the Ryan collection are con-
tanned in a large gallery, the walls of which
are lined with dark wood work in the
Renaissance style.
At one end, on either side of fireplace.
stand two cabinets, which are filled with
Limoges enamels, ancient reliquaries and
other articles Of early religious art. These
have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars
and could not be replaced at any price
Among them are a remarkable number of
works by the great Penicaud family-there
were four of them-the princes of Limoges
enamellers.
A splendid specimen of this work is
shown in large plaque representing 1.-THE
Entombment of the Saviour" reproduced on
this page. It is by Jean Penicaud the first.
In making these enamels powdered glass
was mixed with coloring matter The de-
sign was painted with this material upon
background of silver or copper. 1t was
then fired in an oven so that the glass
melted and adhered to the plate. The oper.
alton was done with wonderful care and
skill, and the exact manner Of doing it is a
lost art to-day.
So successful was this method that the
brilliant colors of these enamels have lasted
nearly four hundred years without trace
of cracking or fading or any injury except
where they have been actually battered
In these cabinets are twelve plaques by
this same Penicaud, showing the Stations
Of the Cross after prints by the early Ger.
man, Martin Schongauer. BY Nardon Pen.
Icaud, the first Of the family, is a splendid
triptych representing the Cruciixion and
attendant scenes, and an ENTRY of Christ
Into Jerusalem. Other Limoges enan.
ellers represented are the Limousins and
Reymonds, making collection of
over thirty pieces Of these price
less objects.
Equally interesting and more an
Client are the works in champleve
enamel, in which design is drawn
by raising the body metal with
knife. Into this design the coloring

material was poured. In this style is re.
markable reiquary, shown on this page,
adorned with a representation Of the Cru
cifxion and figures of women and apostles
in relief. 1t is ornamented with precious
stones in cabochon form. This dates from
the thirteenth century, is Byzantine in style
and formerly held the relics of saint in
some French abbey.
Probably still more precious is an English
reliquary of about the same date, bearing
a representation of the murder of Saint
Thomas Beckett. Another work Of SINH,
lar style is a eucharistic dove, made to con.
tain the sacred host, and formerly sus.
pended above an altar.
In an alcove in the gallery hangs bronze
Cruci1xion, life size, fine example of the
school of Giovanni di Bologna, Italian six.
teenth century. Accompanying it are two
figures in bronze representing Saint Teresa
of Avila and San Pedro of Alcantara by the
seventeenth century Spaniard Alonzo Cano,
and "Pieta" in marble, attributed to the
French sculptor Michel Colomb, about 1900,
This alcove is most impressive assem-.
blage of religious art.
Not all the contents of the gallery are
