Unique Among Statues of
American Executives, It
Is Impressive.
By Louise II. WasseH.

~OUNTLESS pilgrims, vending
their way through the mag
niflcent Washington Cathe-
dral on Easter day, will pause
IN reverence before the bronze like
ness OF President Abraham Lincoln.
This is the only known statue of
President of the United States kneel-
ing in prayer.
On Easter morn, when the rising
sun iluminates the two glorious
stained glass windoWs-one inscribed,
"He that doeth the truth cometh to
the light" and the other depicting the
opposite OF truth-the roseate lights
cast halo over the bowed head Of
the Lincoln figure. In this ethereal
light the bronze Lincoln likeness
stands out in striking contrast against
the gray stone wall, and the strong
features, deeply etched with the stress
and strain of terrific years of pathos,
are skillfully portrayed by the artist.
To Lincoln Is credited the saying,
"A man is responsible for his face
after So"
Nowhere is there q more appro-
pirate setting for the appealing figure
OF Lincoln at Prayer" than its pres
ent location in the Hildrup memorial
beneath the windows Of truth, and its
challenge, at the head Of the stairway
in the north transept leading to Beth
lehem chapel-the cradle Of the Ca
thedral
AS the poet and author paint their
word pictures, so the artist has con-
ceived, in tiny pieces of scintillating
glass, these two colorful windows,
whose lights glorify-make ufelike-
the man OF sorrow"
7 AWRENCE SAINT, the artist, said:

After the sculptor's death Mrs
Hildrup gave considerable thought to

Gettysburg battlefield. AS she be-
came interested in the Cathedral in
the Nations Capital, however, and
realized that 1t is visited by $50, 900
pilgrims and worshipers annually even
now when the edifice is only one third
completed, she decided to place the
priceless bronze image In the part OF
the Cathedral which memorializes
Mr.. Hildrup. Here it is seen by visi-
tors from all over the world as they
conclude a visit to the great choir
and start down the stairway to Beth
lehem Chapel of the Holy Nativity.
where President Woodrow Wilson,
Admiral Dewey and other eminent
Americans rest.
Historians agree upon at least four
times In the life Of Lincoln when he
fell on his knees in prayer, asking for
help and guidance-as lad Of 8,
he knelt beside the death bed of his
own mother; he was bowed in sorrow
at the grave OF his beloved sweet
heart, Ann Rutledge; the loss OF his
little son, Tad, and on the battlefield
Of Gettysburg, which inspired his
immortal address
On Easter morn, as the Cathedral
choir boys sing, welcome, Happy
Morning, Age to Age Shall Say" and
their sweet, clear notes are rever-
berated by the choir invisible, the
gaunt bronze figure Of Lincoln, kneel-
ing IN abject humility, seems to
echo Amen"

Interesting Dry Point
by Eminent British Etcher.
THE American College Society Of
- Print Collectors has lately issued
the 14th OF its series of prints by
notable printmakers. It is dry
point by q distinguished British
artist. Edmund Blampied, entitled
"Seaweed Harvest, jersey" large
plate measuring IA by IL inches In
dimensions, but very typical and ex-
ceedingly strong
Malcolm G. Salaman, who for many
years has been 4 leading authority
on prints in England, writing in
appreciation Of not only the etcher
but this particular print has said:
Among modern etchers Edmund
Blampied holds his place firmly in
the front rank. and even among the
older masters, though there be a few
who outrange him in their subject
matter, in his particular line he has
never had superior. This is limited
to the working horse OF Jersey and
the laboring man - Blampied's
horses have every characteristic that
nature suggests, observed with eyes
that love them, and drawn with
hand in perfect sympathy.
"Seaweed Harvest, jersey" his latest
work, is drawn with rich tones and
vital lines-it Is a splendid print"
Edmund Blampied was born in 1886,
on farm in St. Martins Parish,
Isle OF Jersey. His father was a
farmer, and he began drawing horses
and farm workers almost as soon as
he was able to hold a pencil. To him
the subject matter that he found close
at hand has never become outWorn.
In his youth, he says, he spoke only
the Norman French patois of the
local population. In the nineties it
was customary for the Breton peasants
to cross over to the Isle of Jersey to
assist in harvesting the potato crop.
"These were OF the type" Mr.. Blam-
pied writes, 80 famously dipicted by
Jean Francois Millet, and thank my
lucky stars for having often worked in
their company. Most simple and
primitive, natural and amusing, they
were joy to work with, which prob
ably explains my liking for continu-
ously depicting both farmer and
peasant in my dry points"
The print just published by the
American College Society of Print
Collectors depicts two men loading
seaweed in a typical Jersey cart, on
the seacoast at low tide. A white
horse and q dark colored horse,
harnessed tandem, stand patiently
on the wet sands at the waters edge,
while the loading process goes on,
one man below forking it up, the other
man on the top pressing 1t down.
The sky is light and partly clouded;
the foreground is dark from the masses
Of wet, ungathered seaweed The

distribution Of light and shade are

O'Hara went one year to South Amer
lea and another to Mexico and has
now but just returned from trip, by
motor, to the Pacific Coast, via New
Mexico and Arizona.
Each of these trips has yielded Mr..
O'Hara good returns. He has keen OBJ
servation and very skillful use Of his
brush; he knows on the instant what
he wants to do and does 1t with the
utmost facility and swiftness. These
qualifications are enormous assets to
one who would paint en- route. The
quantity and the quality Of the work
that Mr.. O'Hara achieves on his excur-
sions into country new to him Is, how
ever, none the less surprising.
Those who see our great West, with
its deserts, its mountains, its canyons
and many natural phenomena, for the
: first time, are apt to find it overpoWer-
ing, and the artist, with his more SEN
sitive perception, cannot escape the
experience, but If he is wise he will not
attempt the impossible. This Mr..
O'Hara fully understood, and the
paintings that he has brought back
from Death Valley, from the Grand
Canyon, the Yosemite, Carmel and
Santa Barbara are a series OF vivid
impressions, very personal and there
fore very significant.
1t was only 10 years ago that Eliot
O'Hara began painting. Nine years
ago he went to Russia on Guggen-
helm fellowship and almost imme-
diately upon his return scored success.
He had then given up lucrative busi-
ness to follow art and had chosen
water color as his medium. He is now
recognized as one of the foremost
water colorists in tr is country and one
OF the most accomplished teachers. He
exhibits widely, his paintings SELL his
Summer school at Goose Rocks Beach,
Me, Is annually overcrowded. He had
classes last Fall in Philadelphia at the
museum school, and is to give teach
ing course at Yale before the season
closes. From the first Mr.. O'Hara had
a fair for water color and his earliest
efforts we're amazingly clever, but as
time has passed he has acquired not
only greater control of his medium,
but richer sense OF color and finer
feeling for effect.
This continued development, which
was noticeable especially in his paint
ings done in Mexico, is evidenced in
a greater degree in those which he
has brought back from the West. In
composition these are very simple-no
effort has been made to put down all
that was to be seen, and in this re-
spect Mr.. O'Hara's work may be con-
sidered modern-but he does tram
scribe the essence of the factual and
his transcriptions are rendered with
both breadth and subtlety, a good
combination.
In two Of these paintings he has
pictured luminous, late afternoon
skies with what may be properly
termed perfection Of feeling, a bril-
liant effect Of light cleaning through
dry, clear air. He has painted the
Grand Canyon u1 der a snow blanket;
he has looked into Death Valley and

unity with environment. To again
quote Salaman-"B Blampied interprets
these subjects with natural instinct
and the something more OF the
master" There is the secret-the in
definable something more" which
gives to technical achievement pro-
found and lasting significance as a
work of art.
This is the second print issued by
the College Society of Print Collectors
to its constituent members this season
and a third will follow shortly, it Is
understood. Through this channel

harvest in most instances during the
Summer months, with bit of Spring

But the seasons are not Identical in

into the habit OF seeking Summer else

excellent and impressive. No one
could complain of "prettiness' in this
theme, but neither is 1t in the fashion
Of the day-coarse and vulgar. There
is picturesqueness in the subject
matter which catches and pleasantly
holds attention, and the etcher's mode
OF Interpretation is peculiarly fitting
virile and spirited. After all, this is
where art comes in and does its part.
Many persons might have seen men
loading seaweed on the coast of Jersey
but only one-in this instance Blam-
