ents that he will get In touch

adjoining Brooklyn The other
half would be shifted to six
schools in Brooklyn.

which is $3.50 a year.
Mr.. Vitarelli brought court
action after his 1854 dismissal
as a security risk. The In
terror Department then ex-
plunged that finding from the

by the Secretary of the In
terror summarily as an employe
not covered by civil service
safeguards.
The Supreme Court on June

Perhaps it was as well that
he didn't return before the war.
On a list of names drawn up by
Nazi intelligence experts that
was found after the war, DR.. de
RoSen was one of three Ameri-
cans in the Washington-area
slated for liquidation "after the
defeat of the United States"
for helping the Poles.
Home Here Now
He considers Washington his
home town. A bachelor, he lives
with two sisters and q brother
in-law in a large, late 19th-cen-
tury house on Thirty-fourth

drawings. tapestries, buSts,

of paintings when I am
through" he says.
Although a traditional paint
er DR.. de Rosen respects alb
stract art and says he likes
some Of it. But. he adds, "ab-
stract is the wrong word for
it," The titles on abstract works
are foolish: "Once you talk of
abstract things you can't name
them"
His own style has become
simpler over the years partic-
ularly recently due to his work
in the mosaic medium. The in
fluence of Byzantine art is also
reflected in his work. There is,
he says, "a static quality in it
which appeals to me very
much"
But heNs not fond of mosaic
work because Of the extra time
it takes to paint the design,
then to supervise its transfer
in glass to the surface where
1t is intended to 60.
Months on Mosaic
The shrine mosaic took DR..
de RoSen seven months time
and a great deal Of work to
finish. First he painted the
small figures on sections of
paper in his studio in WASH
ington. Then he went to the
Ravenna Mosaic Co. m st.
Louis, Mo-, and painted the
giant figure of Christ with the
aid Of a wooden mockup of
the dome. Next the firm con-
verted the design to thousands
of pieces of colored glass and
he returned to Washington to
supervise their placement on
the inner wall Of the apse.
The figure Of Christ is be-
lieved to be the largest repre-
sentation ever made of Him in
a mosaic. He is seated above
three archangels and four
angels.
The well-traveled artist, now
a vigorous So, once listed an
tique collecting and motoring
for pleasure as his hobbies. He
gave up driving several years

other States.
California Fan
But particularly California,
for DR.. de RoSen loves the
West. "As a little boy I used to
read Western stories and play
Indians" he says. Now he
watches Westerns on a TV set
which sits in his studio amid
classical heads, part of a frieze
and his paints. On nearby
shelves works on the Indian
tribes Of the West share space
with tones on the iconography
Of the Christian church and
volumes on Renaissance paint

He was born in Poland in
1891 and taken to Paris at the
age of 2 months. His first edu-
cation was in schools there,
then at college in Lausanne,
Switzerland, and at the Uni
versitieS Of Paris and Munich.
After eight years service in
the armies of France (where
he earned the Legion of Honor
and Croix de Guerre), Britain
and Poland and service in the
Polish diplomatic corps, he
turned to art.
For the next Is years he
painted murals in Europe in
such places as the cathedral
of Lemberg (then Polish, now
RusSian), the chapel of the
Kahlenberg Church in Vienna,
and the private chapel of the
Popes in Castelgandolfo near
Rome.
Battles for Pope
What did Pope Plus XII COM
mission him to paint in the
Papal chapel? Battles, sur
prisingly enough" says DR.. de
Rosen, for he was a fighting
man." Specifically the murals
showed the defeat of the Boil
sheviks outside Warsaw in 1919
by Polish troops led by a Cath
olic chaplain.
DR.. de Rosen was invited to
visit here by friends in 1887.
Soon after his arrival he was
asked to do some paintings for
the polish Pavilion at the New
York Worlds Fair, then given
the commission for the En-
tombment Of Christ" at the
