WORTH 81, 100000
TO PHILADELPHIA

Philadelphia, Aug. s.-The 81, $780,
900 art collection ~,bequeathed by
John G. Johnson to this city is now
safely stored in, a fireproof ware
house. Mr.. johnson was a lawyer of
international fame and his hobby
was buying pictures. He was wsil
known abroad as an art expert. The
Johnson collection includes about
1000 paintings.
In bequeathing his collection to
Philadelphia Mr.. Johnson stipulated
that the treasures should be kept on
exhibition in his home and that the
city should annually appropriate
money to care for them. 1t was de-
cided that a collection of such value
should be contained in a fireproof
gallery and the residence is now be-
ing altered with this object in view.
1t is said that outside Of the Brit
ish National Gallery there is perhaps
no collection of classic paintings that
is so chronologically complete as is
that accumulated by Mr.. johnson,
and it is certain that there is no.
where any private gallery to be COM
pared with these carefully. selected
exemplars Of . Italian, Flemish.
French, Dutch, German, Spanish and
English schools of art. Mr.. john
sons collection is.practically an en-
bodied history of painting for the
long period which it includes.
