toms Bureau, no Washington
official of the Internal Revenue
Service admitted knowing OF
the case.
Aside from the internal evil
dence of style, many OF the
pictures at Ottawa are open to
suspicion, according to Mr..
Colin, because of their made
ouate history or complete lack
of a history. While the famous
pictures in the Chrysler collec-
ton - such as the pioneering
pictures by PicaSso and Matisse
from early in this century
take up several columns of cat
alogue type for their histories
of ownership, scholarship and
exhibitions, others, including
works attributed to Degas, Van
Gogh. Gauguin. Seurat and
Daumier, are catalogued with
the bare assertion of their
identity or with the name OF
a single previous owner.
The mechanics of attribu-
ton is such that the appear
ance of these pictures at the
National Gallery of Canada
means in effect that the gal
lery is vouching for their au-
thenciticty, even though the Sc
lection of the exhibition was
made entirely by Mr.. Chrysler
with no consultation OF DR.,
Comfort.
Since 1887 groups of paint
ings from Mr.. Chrysler's COL
lection have appeared on exhi-
bition in many American mu-
seums, including those at Port
land, Ore, Seattle, San Fran
cisco, Los Angeles, Minneapolis
St. Louis, Kansas City, Mo, and
Boston. In 194l the collection
'in its entirety" was shown
for the first time in Richmond
The most recent showing was
at Dayton, Ohio in 1860. 1t
coud not be learned immedi-
ately whether the pictures ques-
toned in Ottawa were among
those exhibited in these Amer
lean museums.
1 Unlike many art collectors
Mr.. Chrysler, in the words OF
a New York auction house
executive, "is always buying
Z and selling"
The art association, in addi-
ton to whatever independent
action it may take towar
strengthening the profession
has been retained by the In
