There is some interesting contem-
porary jewelry in this diSplay-setS
consisting of necklaces, earrings and
a finger ring. One of these, in pure
silver, utilizes with excellent effect
the typical Mexican bird motif, and
another, silver inset with gold and
turquoise quartz, employs an Aztec
motif. The latter was designed by
no less distinguished an artist than
the mural painter, Diego Rivera.

collector who has generously lent
her collection for this exhibition,
but prefers to remain anonymous.
The designs in most instances en-
ployed by these silversmiths follow
in form American and English
wares, but the ornamentation is
Mexican in feeling and the work.
manship good In quality the silver
is not so fine as ours, nor is the

no easy thing artistically to combine
sophistication with the primitive.
Handsome Plotter.
Among the pottery shown is a
handsome platter lent by the
museum in Mexico City and ex-
hibited in the Mexican pavilion at
the New York Worlds Fair. This
is known as "Puebla Talavera, p"
taking its name from the city where
it is made and the Spanish pottery
which it resembles. When" we
are told, the Spaniards established
the City of Puebla in the 10Th CEN
tury. they found excellent potters in
the vicinity, whom they taught to
initiate the wares they had brought
with them The resemblance is
still striking between the original
Talavera and that made at Puebla
The colors-blue, green, yellow and
white accented by black linear de-
signs-are very similar and very
effective
Much also may be said in praise
of the examples of lacquer work,
both old and modern, in this exhibi-
tion. There are two nice chests,
decorated all over with pictorial de-
signs, and there is a large tray done
exquisitely in elaborate pattern.
Lacquer is a pre-conquest art in
Mexico. Uruapan is now one of the
most important centers for the
making of lacquer ware, the light
woods suitable for lacquering being
found in that vicinity.
Finely woven baskets ornamented
by suitable designs also are included
in this showing, which is of so varied
and artistic a character that it
cannot fail to engender interest and
create respect for the art-craftsmen
OF our nearest continental neighbor
to the south. The exhibition was
planned and arranged by Paul H.
Murphy, member of the Cultural
Relations Division of the Pan-Amer-
lean Union. Similar exhibitions of
the native arts of other countries
in the fundamentally Ecuador and
Peru-are to follow.

the next III Gays, IN an e8nlDlIlOn OF
oil paintings and water colors by
Wells Sawyer, lent by the American
Federation of Arts. The artist is
well known in Washington, having
resided here at various times. These
paintings were done during num-
ber of years after 1926, when Mr..
Sawyer went to Spain to recuperate
from an illness He painted the
beautiful places he saw in all sec
tions of the country.
With a keen eye for pictorial
beauty and an impresSionist tech
nique we'll adapted to his objective
viewpoint, Mr.. Sawyer brought back
collection of works invariably
lovely. The vivid sunshine ofAnda-
lusia, the peaceful Mediterranean
shores of Malaga, the gorgeous
mountain scenery in the Pyrenees,
the towering seaside cliffs of As
turiaS and equally characteristic
glimpseS of many another province
are captured in these paintings,
through the artists mastery of oil
and water color techniques. They
speak, too, of the long history of
Spain, beginning with the Romans
The Roman Bridge near Pollensa,
Balearic Islands, is the central fea-
ture of an exquisite landscape in a
high key. Faded old stones in many
soft colors compose the Roman and
Moorish aqueductS through which
one gets a lunette-shaped view of
Merida, and in a scene in Lugo,
Galicia, old Roman walls form a
background to picturesque peasant
homes.
Although they were finally defeat
ed by the Christian knights, the
Moors left a permanent mark on
Spain. Mr. Sawyer shows us a
corner of their great 18th CEN
tury palace, the Alhambra, in Tow
ers and Sunken Gardens" a ST.
perb water color with a marked
sense of scale, height and distance.
1t seems to symbolic the two
strongly contrasted sides to the
Moorish character. the power that
enabled them to conquer and long
hold part of Spain, and the love of
beauty which they expressed in ex-
quisite forms
Another medieval stronghold is
portrayed in The Alcazar, Segovia, :"
one of the most striking of the Is
oil paintings in the collection. The
Gothic towers and turretS, white in
the vivid sunshine, are nobly sill
houetted against deep blue sky far
above the rock from which the
citadel seems to grow. The Span
ish landscape is enthusiastically
composed of mountains and valleys,
rocky heights jutting from the
plains and forming stupendous set
tings, not only for single buildings,
but for entire cities.
The church, so conspicuous a part
of Spain from very early times, is
equally conspicuous in Mr.. Saw
yer's exhibition-the magnificent

Mexican Crafts on View
Pan-American Union
T1forocfjun Erbibj1

Interesting Exhibit.
The Pan-American Union is
showing this month most engag-
ing collection of craft work from
Mexico, beautifully arranged in up
right cases lately installed in the
hall north of the patio. Some of
the exhibits date back many years,
but the majority are of today and,
while traditional in style. give evi-
dence of the continuation of the
stream of both inventiveness and
talent.
The weavingS and embroiderieS
are especially colorful and attrac-
tive. Into the patterns for dresses,
scarfs, rugs and other articles of
utility, with fine sense of decora-
tive design, have been fashioned
emblems of their native folklore and
ancient traditions.
Curiously enough, in some of the
designs set forth, not only in the
weavings, but in lacquer work and
pottery, a thread of Oriental in
f1uence is traced. One bespangled
frock is shown which is said to
have been copied from that of a
Chinese maiden brought to Mexico
many years ago by pirate and
there sold into slavery. Others are
inclined to the belief that the Chi
nese motifs found in the Mexican
pottery we're derived through Spain
and the Moors, who traficked with
the East. But, whatever the legends,
the similarity is there-as it is

the French Renaissance engravers,
who was goldsmith to the King and
able, as we're few, to fill his compost
tions "chock-full of details" without
endangering unity of effect; and also
a landscape by Claude Lorrain,
delicately rendered, with evident
close dependence upon study of
nature.
Note also should be made of four
photographic drawings-portraits of
distinguished personages-by Ingres,
done in Rome in 1915, printed in
London, on single sheet, and today
very rare and much sought. What a
marvellous craftsman was this great
artist, and how keen his perception!
The Spanish school is represented
by four prints by Goya, all of the
Bordeaux bull ring, handsomely de-
signed, executed and printed-very
Spanish in flavor (as are his two
paintings in the Mellon collection
here), at the same time very
modern. These were done in 1925,
when Goya was 70.
The British school has to its credit
four mezzotints of landscapes by
Turner, together, in each instance,
with the outline drawing, etched by
himself, in preparation for the en-
craving, which gives an interesting
glimpse into method. In addition
to which there is brilliant impress
sion of the "Shere Mill Pond" by Sir
Seymour -Haden, which Hamerton
declared to be, with one exception,
"the finest etching of landscape
subject which has ever been ex-
ecuted in the world" Blake also is
represented with two of his illustra-
tive prints, one taken from the
Book of Job, When Morning Stars
Sang Together" and the other from
Dante's Inferno" There Went
Satan First"
With these are shown IL of the
IA Imaginary Prisons" etched by
Piranesi when only % from subjects
described as dreams by De Quincy
in his Opium Eaters" OF these,
Hind listed only four sets as in
existence a few years ago. Very
different are these from Piranesi's
better known architectural etchings
done during his 40 long years in
Rome, which, while very skillful, are
much more stereotyped.

Roman; Canaletto typically Vene-
tian.
Sharing the honors OF the 10Th
century with Sir Seymour -Haden
is Charles Meryon of France, who
is represented by his etching of
Galleries Notre Dame" a beautiful
etching giving broad view of Paris
through the arches of one of the
high galleries of this much beloved
church SO ornamented by the lace
in-stone work of the early carvers.
There are still other prints which
should be mentioned for their in
terest and worth, among them one
by Hendrix Goudt, 18th Century
Hollander, of Tobias and the An
gel" exquisitely engraved but quite
different from the painting by
Filipino Lippi, of the same sub
ject, which is in the National COL
lection. The fish which Tobias car
ries is large and drags on the
ground; the angel is a lad rather
than a maiden; Tobias hand is not
held; the way is rather dark. But
how handsome is the rendering!
1t means much to be able to study
these prints with the paintings made
during the same eraS and in the
same countries. What giants then
seem to have walked the earth! How
diverse was their talent, how great
their accomplishment! Above all,
these prints evidence the respect
of the artists for their art; their
willingness to give to it their best.
What wide field they covered and
how well! If, occasionally, one
comes across a trace of the vul-
garity of the times in which these
artists lived-and how few such
there are-never is there an instance
of letdoWn of the ideal of perfec-
ton pertaining to artistic quality.
1t is for this reason that these works
have lived and have today for all
message. Truly has it been said by
a great print connoisseur. THE old
engravers left an incalculably rich
heritage in their works to all lovers
of beauty" A part of this heritage
is now ours through the gifts of
generous donors to the National
Gallery of Art and previously to the
national print collection in the
Library of Congress. How fortu-
nate we are!

dowed their prints with no less per-
sonality than their paintings.
Rembrandt is especially well rep
resented both by paintings and
prints in the National Gallery, and
when the Joseph Widener collec-
tion is added there will be few
places where this greatest master
can be so satisfactorily studied as
here. There is no jolt between the
paintings and the prints of Rem
brandt, which, perhaps, not only
gives indication of his dominant per-
sonaljty, but suggests the proba-
bility that many works, the attribu-
tion OF which, in recent years, has
been regarded as doubtful, may truly
be his own. Through gift and loan,
there is an amazingly rich display
of Rembrandt etchings here at
present. First, the Three Trees"
in supremely fine impression; then
the Gold Weigher's Field" "Dr.
Faustus in His Study" The Wind
Mill" and other landscapes; the
famous portraits of his Mother"
of Jan Lutman and Jan Asselyn,
of Young Man in Velvet Cap" and
"Old Man With Beard and Velvet
Cloak''-amazing interpretations of
character and individuality, and
also the sacred subjects, Christ Dis
putting With the Doctors" Christ
at Emmaus," and, in addition to
others, his e-forgotten
Return of the Prodigal Son"-one
of the most dramatic scenes ever de-
picted by any artist. From such an
assemblage one turns almost breath
less with wonder and admiration.
Nanteuil Works.
In the midst of these etchings by
Rembrandt has been placed an en-
craving by Nanteul of Louis XIV,
sharply contrasted but yet not dis
similar in mastery. Nanteuil made
his engraving from portraits which
he, himself, drew or painted from
life, and was thus enabled to infuse
in them a degree of spontaneity
which is not usual. He did no less
than 2SO portrait engravlngs which,
historically as well as artistically,
have great value, serving as mirror
of the time in which he lived. The
portrait here of Louis was done in
the Kings 26th year and is unusually
large, very French, as it should be,
in flavor; decorative in effect, vital.
At present, the French school has
very small representation in our
national collection, so it is pleasing
to note among the prints works by
Jean Duvet, oldest and greatest of

glass, some of which, in shape and
color, is strongly reminiscent of We
netian glass from Murano. This is
particularly so with regard to sew
eral graceful vases and a beauti-
fully shaped, rich green glass BRAN
dy inhaler, so large and heavy,
however, that it could be handled
with ease only by an athlete in ex-
cellent condition. Most people use
these inhalerS as flower vases.
After remarking the likeness be-
tween this West Virginia ware and
italian glass, one learns that the
makers came over from Italy IS or
20 years ago and settled in West
Virginia, where they continue to
carry on the craft their ancestors
had practiced for generations.
Other crafts from West Virginia
are objects of pewter and copper,
woodwork from Arthurdale, clay
figurines and baskets.
