Art has probably the best
print cabinet In the country;
most Of the material is now
located in Jenkintown, Pa,
but the print department in
the Gallery itself usually has
a selection of great examples
on view and often there is a
further selection in the corri-
dor leading to the cafeteria.
The Phillips and the Cor
coran both have print collec-
tons and the Library of
Congress has a fine study
collection in addition to regu-

exhibitions of print Of the

especially the last, should be

While commercial galleries
usually exhibit paintings for
sale on commission from the
artist, the same galleries
often own prints outright.
There Is therefore some vari-

Picking Art for the Home
By FRANK GETLEN
star Art Critic


Art for the home can be
anything from an inherited
collection Of Old Masters to
the innocent and often de-
lightful daubs your children
run off before they learn
about art. On the other hand,
art cannot be pictures you
paint yourself out Of a kit
full of numbered drawings
and paint pots.
If your children have
passed the stage of limo
cent art and If your grand
parents neglected to lay in
a supply of 1mpreSsionist
masters when they were dirt
cheap, you are in the market
for art for the home.
Art generally comes in four
kinds: Paintings, drawings.
prints and sculpture. There is
a fifth kind and if you don't
know much about art. this
is the kind you viii probably
turn to first, namely, repro
auctions. Although the word
print" is often used for re-
productions, the two things
are entirely different. A print
is an original work Of art
made by an artist called a
printmaker. A reproduction is
a photo-mechanical copy Of
a painting.
For the same reason that
recordings Of Beethoven are
easier to find than recordings
Of young composers now
working, reproductions tend
to concentrate on great
works Of the past. although
there are exceptions.
Memory Aid
II you have friends who do
know something about art,
they will be politely snobbiSh
about your reproductions.
even though the names
Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Re-
noir, Picasso-are blue chip.
Artists tend to resent repro
auctions for the same rea-
son the musicians union
fought a long fight against
recordings. Museum people
sometimes claim that repro
auctions debaSe anyone's
taste for art. This is prob
ably true for the person who
sees nothing but reproduc-
tons and treats them as If
they were paintings. The
main value Of reproductions
is as a memory assistant. 1t
is dangerous to art appreci-
alton to hang your walls with
reproductions Of pictures you
have never seen, to frame
them extensively and to re-
gard the matter as settled.
1t can be useful, though, to
purchase reproductions Of
paintings you like and to
keep them around the house
as a reminder to get back to
the museum for another look.
Here in Washington, the
National Gallery Of Art, the
Corcoran Gallery of Art and
the Phillips Collection all sell
reproductions Of their best
known works. They can be
framed with a sheet Of glass,
q cardboard backing and two
clips, top and bottom. espe-
cially designed for the pur-
pose and available at art sup
ply stores. They can also be
thumb-tacked to a wall.
Once you begin to know your
way around the local muse
ums it can be very reward
ing to have a group Of even
the postcard size reproduc-
ton tackled up over your
desk, near the telephone, in
the bathroom or at your
kitchen work space.
All of this, however. is
merely preparation for buy
ing art for the home. 1t is
roughly equivalent to study
ing the form sheets before
playing the horses. The be-
ginning or amateur horse
player has another lesson or
two for the beginning art

BY the Associated Press


Austin ]. Tobin, executive
director of the Port of New

Sidney Goldstein, the Port

said the Port Authority is will

The case began in December,

THE PROBLEM

NE nODAbM
Gerard L.-She does things
for spite, to annoy me.
Violet L.-He's a fusspot.
He should live and let live.
THE DETAILS
Gerard L.-Offhand, you'd
think our marriage a perfect
one. We're both high school
graduates. same religion,
same background. Our fam
lilies cause no trouble. We
have a nice home and a COM
Portable income from our two

things are fine.
Still we argue mosL of the
time! 1t seems to prove that
it's the little" things that
can make or break a mar
riage. things like considera-
ton and thoughtfulnesS. Such
things never occur to vi.
For example. why does she
settle down next to me in the
living room to do her nails?
She has other places for that,
and she knows I can't stand
the smell of that stuff. Why,
too. does she read newspapers
in bed and keep me awake
with the ruStling? Can't she
bring along q book or a
small magazine?
Violet L.-You never saw a
man with so many crotchets.
What alarms me is that I'm
the one who brings them all
out in Gerry. Nobody else
seems to annoy him as much
as I do.
How come he can work
among chemicals all day and
not be the least bit annoyed
by the odors. but passes out
from a whiff of my nail
polish? l like to do it while l
watch TV or chat. OF course,
If he prefers, he can treat
me to a store-bought man.
icure each week, and wait till
I get home for his dinner.
AS to the newspaper, this
is something new. It never
used to bother him. I never
know what new thing will get
his goat. Is it me he can't
stand, or marriage?
THE COUNCILS VIEW
The easy answer here would
be: Save up for two bedrooms.
But that's easy. So. to Gerard
we say: When you look at
Violet. don't see red, see a
very human gal you must
make allowances for and get
used to. And to Violet: In
q good marriage you can't
Just be yourself. You must be
your best self.
In simplest terms. marriage
offers each a chance to be
Supremely kind to the other.
With this In mind, Violet can
easily do her nails in the
bathroom. Maybe he's had his
fill Of chemical odors in his
laboratory. And she can read
her noisy newspaper before
bedtime, say while Gerard
does the dishes. CWhat say,

Gerard's right about the
little" things. They reveal

tant, for the long push, than
