Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin, Vol. 19: March, 1924 A very clear idea of the characteristics of the Yun'g Chung style can be obtained by the study of the vase shown on the cover, which was purchased last summer from the Bloomfield Moore Fund.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin, Vol. 19: May, 1924 Of the English pieces in the present exhibition, the three 'shown in Plate I are of a high degree of excellence. The dining-room or hall chair on the left, lent by Frank Partridge, Esq., is in many ways unique. It cannot be said to belong definitely to any particular style. Its depressed, wooden seat, probably in use covered with a squab, is highly unusual; it has straight legs which are mildly fluted and ornamented at the top with cyma scrolls. The seat rail is deeply curved and the centre of it carved with motives reminiscent of the Chinese. The splat back has a wheel design in the middle, suggestive perhaps of Robert Adam's influence, and the uprights curve in and join it and then continue to the top rail which is curved and carved in the manner used throughout. The general effect is not only very individual, but highly pleasing. The table in the center, the property of George D. Widener, Esq., is strongly architectural, yet possesses great merit: it was almost surely made at the time when Chippendale was working for the Adam Brothers. The top is of black marble; the straight legs are square and fluted and taper slightly to the plainly-moulded foot. Large acanthus leaves are carved on both sides at the beginning of each leg, which relieves the severity. Under the marble top is a series of rosettes and a gadroon-edging, broken in the middle by a garland of flowers carved in the realistic manner of Grinling Gibbons. The beautiful and rare ribband-back chair shown at the right is also lent by Mr. Widener. It is typical of' the designs in the first plate of the Director, and is in every way one of the most splendid expressions of the style of Chippendale. Its cabriole legs, terminating in ball and claw feet, are carved at the knees with acanthus leaves. The bottom of the seat rail has the usual gadrooned moulding, while the top of the same rail is decorated with a leaf carved ogee, a unique feature. The top rail is strongly curved, and the uprights are pilastered and capped with acanthus leaves; The ribbon is executed with the highest skill and seems literally to tie the back splat together, with the long tassel hanging down in the center. This type of chair was popular between 1755 and 1760, yet there are very few specimens extant that can be said to have been made then.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin, Vol. 18: March 1923 The second panel shows three knights, similarly clad, hewing bushes or young trees with swords and hatchets. The middle knight wears a rose-lavender colored hauberk, with white chain mail on his legs. The two side knights are clad in white with ruby hose and ruby belts about their waists. It is to be noticed that the knight on the right has his sword in his ruby scabbard, for, unlike the others, he wields an axe. In other respects the coloring of the panel is like the other, with. A blue background and ruby border, but there appear to be more restored portions. Probably but half of this medallion has its original glass. The trees are stranger than those of the first; rose lavender and pale green, curling and twisting, they resemble the stems of vines. It is even more difficult to tell What these two subjects represent, than to date them. Generally, glass of this period depicts some Bib lical story. They must have been minor parts of a large window, full of medallions, and these tell only part of a story. These knights may represent Christian champions combatting the forces of heathendom, symbolized _as a wilderness of trees; they may themselves be returned Crusaders, the Teutonic Knights, who drove back the un-christian hordes of Northeastern Germany in the thirteenth century.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin, Vol. 18: May 1923 EN J amin west is unfortunately best known for his large hrs torical, religious, and allegorical pictures, but at the Memorial Exhibit-ion held a-year and a half ago atthe Art Alliance, Phil-a delphia, it was evident that West's best claim to immortality was through his portraits. Yet that he was also a landscapist is hardly known. Mrs. Charles F. Williams has just lent the Museum alandscape by West of great charm and charac.ter It appears'to be late afternoon or early evening in the picture, that time of day when the sun is low and the shadows are long. From a rift in the clouds' a saffron glow lights up' the sky. It is such a sky as Claude Lorrain loved to paint. Below are distant woods, and nearer at hand a country road, a stream and a great brick arched bridge. At the left, in the foreground, across a ford, sheep are being driven by a 'shepherd. At the right, in the shadow of the bridge, On the bank of the stream, is a picnic party, composed of a man, a woman, two children and a dog. While in the middle of the picture, racing over the bridge, is a coach filled with a gay company, and drawn by four white horses. The coach approaches a tavern half hidden by tall trees, and here it is met by several mounted officers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
