With the showing OF the Morgan coll
lections the new wing in which they
are placed, officially known as Addition
n. made it's debut. This important new
wing to our museum has been in con-
struct!on a long time and its fortunes
have already been linked in the chron-
.cles with the Morgan art objects. Last
year It appeared for a time as though
the appropriations from the city by
which the additions to the museum are
built would be indefinitely postponed
and protest resulted from the late Mr..
Morgan, who, fearful lest the long con-
tinued storage OF the worries and minia-
lures in packing boxes in the museum
cellars would cause deterioration in them.
He declared that II the city did not
care for the loan of his collections he
would lend them instead to the city of
Hartford where already a handsome
memorial museum to Mr.. Morgan's
father worthy Of receiving them had
been built. However, this alternative
was not forced upon him. The city
did make an appropriation for a new
wing, arrangements were then perfected
for the present exhibition and "A tenn
porary exhibition OF the paintings was
even arranged last year. which gave
great pleasure To multitudes of visitors
and permitted our public to make the
acquaintance Of the Raphael Madonna.
The new wing Is at the northeast
corner of the main building and its
facade corresponds with the finished
facade of the nucleus Of the ultimate
museum and Is in Indiana limestone,

windows between engaged columns OF

Marvellous Treasures of
Art to Be Displayed at
the Me tropolitan
Museum, Beginning
Wednesday

y art event Of the first magni-
~ tude. one that will not only
n deeply interest the citizens Of
New York hut art lovers all
over the world, will be the opening to
the public next Wednesday of the long
heralded loan exhibition of the j. fiev-
pont Morgan art collections. =
The exhibition consists of material
which has never been seen in this coun-
Try before with the exception of the
paintings which have been ON view here
during the past year. and five of the
Gobein tapestries. In regard To range.
variety and the high average of artistic
quality Of the objects that compose II.
i is probably without a parallel in The
history Of collecting.
Its small Renaissance hronzes its
miniatures. its cnamels, worries, porcc-
lains and silver are unriNalled any
whore in the world. Their monetary
value is almost beyond compute. IL
serves TO convey vaguely an idea 10 the
public mind of their rarity by stating
the oft repeated valuation of the experts
at anywhere from fifty to scventy-five
millions of dollars.
The quality of the art. 1t can safely
be prophesied. will also slasger the
connoisseurs. who are now 10 see these
marvels brought together FOR the first
time. These are the art objects that
came from the late Mr.. Morgan's Lon
don residence at Princes Gate; from his
country seat. Dover House. near Put
ney; from the Victoria and Albert
Museum at South kensington: the Ma
tonal Gallery. where the great Colonna
Madonna Of Raphael hung for so many
years, and Paris, where many of the
things were stored from the time of
their purchase. There is such a be-
widening assembly Of famous master
r.eccs in such varying lines of art that
j. may lie doubted If Mr.. Morgan him
>'lf realized what an abundance of
splendid works he had accumulated nor
how fine a display they were capable
% making
Speaking of the manner in which the
collection grew Director Robinson in
the Bulletin Of the Museum says:
Had such an assemblage represented
the results OF several generations of a
family of collectors it would have been
A most remarkable achievement. but
formed as 1t was by one man, and the
Sreater part during a comparatively
short period Of his life, 1t Is probably
without parallel in the history Of col
Letting, as there is to-day no collection
which in range, variety and the high
average Of quality outranks it.
Mr.. Morgan always had a passionate
love for beautiful things, but although
&c began TO acquire these in his student
days il was not until the latter years of
his life, when he relaxed somewhat in
his close attention TO business. that he
gave fun play to his ambition as a coll
lrctor. During that time he purchased
