already there, this newly estab-
lished gallery will Immediately be-
come one of the outstanding CEN
tiers for the study of the Italian
school of art, not only in the United
States, but in the world"
The gift includes 375 paintings
and 18 pieces of sculpture, repre-
senting practically all of the i'm
portant artists of the italian school
from the 18th to the 18th century.
Many of the canvasses are unique,
and it is therefore impossible to
appraise their money value ac-
curately. Mr.. Bruce announced:
These paintings and sculpture will
be in the western wing, where also
will be shown the Italian paintings
from the Mellon collection and
other collections which may in the
future come to the gallery. B"
The Mellon Trust, which is erecting
the building, is now having rooms
and special settings prepared for
the installation of the Kress COL
lection at the opening of the gall
lery."
