1907 he was placed in charge Of the
small collection of paintings char
acterized as THE National Gallery of
Art" and cared for them in Connec-
ton with his other duties.
In the field of archaeology DIR.
Holmes work had a profound effect
on scientific opinion. He succeeded
in disproving, beyond much possibility
of argument. that the American abo-
riginal was an ancient type of man
dating back. to the paliolithic age in
Europe. His work on the art of the
mound builders is considered a classic
bit of scientific investigation, and he
was one of the first to investigate the
curious civilization left by the Maya
peoples of Mexico.
But through the years the, subject
closest to the heart of DR.. Holmes was
art. In the busiest periods of his sci
entific career he found time to devote
to landscapes. and he never lost his
extreme facility with the brush nor
his delicate sense of color in nature.
He spent every spare moment in paint
ing and he nursed the little collection
under his care with loving enthusi-
asm. This collection has grown. 1t
contains some of the most valuable
paintings on the American continent,
anu dII lIldL Is lcCtSSdIy 10 ~ Scpoi utC
building to make it one of the fore
most of American galleries.
DR.. Holmes now gives his whole at
tentiOn to the collection But he still
paints-as enthusiastically as when he
was young man. And he still is in
terested deeply in archaeological inves-
tigation. Practically all of his career
has been spent in Washington. except
from 1894 to 1897, when he was GU
rator of anthropology at the Field Mu-
scum in Chicago. His home is at 1854
Belmont street.

DR.. HOLMES, AT 30,
PAID HIGH HONOR
Curator of National Gallery
of Art Given Testimonial
by $50 Friends.

The grand old gentleman of art and
science in Washington has been find
ing out during the last few days
what temple of affection he has
built for himself in the hearts Of his
colleagues during his long career.
DR.. William ri. Holmes, curator
of the National Gallery of Art, was
so years old last Wednesday. The
occasion had no particular signifi-
cance in the mind of this distin-
guished painter and archeologist-he
was altogether too busy with his can
vases. But it was a day for which
his associates at the National Mu-
scum had been waiting.
He had planned to spend the eve
ming in a quiet visit with his friends
and neighbors, DR.. and Mrs. Paul
Bartsch, at their home, 1456 Bel
mont street. At the Bartsch home he
was surprised to find a considerable
group gathered. He was presented
with a bound volume of letters, 150
in all, written for the occasion by
the most distinguished of those with
whom he had been associated in the
course of his career.
Short Period as Teacher.
DIR. Holmes. started his life work
interested primarily in art. He was
born in Harrison County. Ohio. De
cember /. 1S46, attended the country
schools and graduated from normal
school After a short period as a
teacher he came to Washington to
study art. In the course of this
study he frequented the Smithsonian
Institution Building. making sketches
of the stuffed birds on exhibition
there. While he was engaged in this
work one day he attracted the atten-
ton of a. visiting ornithologist who
was following a special line of re-
search at the Smithsonian. This
scientist was struck by the young
mans facility and accuracy with the
brush and invited him to make some
drawings for him.
This was DR.. Holmes Introduction
to science. He was so successful with
the bird sketches that he was EN-.
ployed by the Smithsonian as an illus.
traitor, and the next year. 1874, he
was transferred to the United States
Geological Survey as an artist to ac-
company the exploring expedition into
the Southwest led by DR.. II. "
Hayden. when much work was done
in prehistoric archaeology.
This expedition largely changed the
trend of DIR. Holmes lifework. For
nearly half a century he was only
secondarily an artist and primarily an
archeologist. He held successfully po-
sitions as head of the division Of pre-
historic pottery of the National Mu-
scum. chief of the Bureau Of Ameri.
can Ethnology and head of the De-
partment of American Archaeology. In
