Statues of Animals
Done With Surety.
Mrs. Anna Vaughn Hyatt Hunt
ington is the daughter of Alpheus
Hyatt, the eminent palaeontologist
and pupil of Louis Agassiz, for whose
family the town of HyattSville-
nearby-Was named. She must have
inherited her creative genius from
her father, and her love and knowl-
edge of animals and animal creation
for her statues of animals not only
show her knowledge of anatomy and
physiology, but her sympathetic
understanding of the species, the
habits and the instinct of the crea-
lures which she portrays. There is
an originality in her art and a GER
tain lyricism in her technique.
Wandering through the lovely
Brookgreen Gardens one comes
suddenly upon reduced reproduc-
ton of her famous bronze statue of
Diana of the Chase. In the midst
of the lush grass and field flowers
the divine huntresS stands poised on
the tip of her toes on a small sphere,
with her bow in her left hand, and
her right in the position of graceful
vet physical force of having drawn
the cord-an audacious note OF bal
ance made sure and perfect by the
hound leaping at her feet.
Other reduced reproductions OF
some of Mrs. Huntington's most
beautiful and best known work is
her Joan of Arc-the original is in
New York-which received. universal
admiration when shown at the Cor
coran Gallery several years ago.
At every turn of the walks in the
garden one comes across copy or
reproduction of one of her charming
pieces; in the sylvan shade young
Diana rising out of a water lily pool,
and cleaning through the trees
perhaps one Of her best known
bronze equestrian statutes-"El Cid
Campeador," which is said to have
been inspired by her husbands
poem, 1.-The Cid" which so forcefully
and potentially portrays the char
acter and prowess of that Christian
champion of the 18th century. Mr..
Huntington's poem is thought by
many to be comparable to Corneille's
drama, but he pictures his hero more
in the light of Anglo-Saxon zeal
than in the fire of Latin enthusiasm.
Governments Honor
Both Husband and Wife.
1t is rather unusual that both a
husband and wife should receive
honors and decorations from the
same foreign countries as well as
distinguished recognition in their
own country, she as a noted sculptor
and he as literateur. Mrs. Hunt
ington is a Chevalier Legion of
Honor and Mr.. Huntington also re-
ceived distinguished honors from
the French government. She has
the Grand Cross of Alfonso XII of
Spain, while her husband is knight
commander, Order of Alfonso XII
and Carlos III.
The Spanish language is becoming
more and more of g means of cons-
munication in the Western Hemi-
sphere, as the great republics of
North and South America are being
drawn closer together in trade, and
q community of interests. Mr..
Huntington's generous gift which
made possible the Hispanic Founda-
ton in the Library of Congress Is
an ever strengthening tie between
the two continents.
