FUNERAL OF METCALF,
NOTED ARTIST, TODAY
Was Well Known in. Washington
for Connection With Corcoran
Art Gallery.

Funeral services for Willard L..
Metcalf. noted artist. who died Mon
day from a sudden heart attack. will
be, held in New York City late this
afternoon. Pallbearers will include
c. Powell nntgerode, director of
the Corcoran Art Gallery. at which
institution a special exhibit of Met
calf's paintings was recently held.
This retrospective display, gathered
through the personal efforts of the
artist. included the best examples of
his work.
Mr. Metcalf, who was ranked by
most critics as the leading American
landscape painter and as an outstand-
ing figure in the art world of today,
was born in Massachusetts, in 1858.
He was thoroughly grounded in art
fundamentals and during his life did
magazine and hook illustrating, but
most OF his later work depicted his
native rugged New England. His
early professional life was marked
by hard ships. bua toward the end of
his career he received high prices for
his work.
Among the interesting experiences
of the artist was his adoption into
the Zuni tribe OF Indians while en-
gagged in special work for the Smith
sonian Institution in the Southwest
in 1881 He studied at the Lowell
Institute, Boston Normal Art School
and the Boston Art Museum School in
this country, and under Boulanger
and LeFebvre and at the Academic
Julien in Paris.
Awards won by Mr.. Metcalf were
both numerous. and important, and
began as far back as the Paris salon
of 1888. He WON the first William A.
Clark prize, with gold medal, at the
Corcoran Gallery biennial exhibition,
1907. with a painting which is now
a. part of the permanent collection
there.
He was a member of the National
Academy of Arts and Letters, the
American Painters Society, the Water
Color Society and the Players and
Lambs Clubs. He Is survived by two
young children.
