SOAP SCULPTURE IS ON VIEW IN GALLERY Small Carvings in White Soap Have Delighted Hundreds of Indianapolis Children at John HerronJ\rt Institute of This City. t ■' Most children love to carve things out of wood and some have found great delight in carving animals out of soap. So it is not surprising that many children of this city are now visiting the John Herron Art Institute to see an exhibition of such carvings in soap.
This soap sculpture exhibition may be seen for the last time on Sunday. The animal pieces are attracting the most attention on part of the children. Tha children will find dogs, a pony, lion, bison, bears, panthers, a cleer and even toads, lizards, swans and a pigeon in this unique exhibition. * The institute spokesman has prepared the following data on new events at the John Herron Art Institute: The armor lent by Edward E. Harris of Perrysville, is, like the Soap Sculpture, arranged in cases in the educational room, Gallery 1. Mr. Harris has added to his original loan, and anew case has been installed. In this group is a French helmet of 1851. 9 It is a very showy example of the late armor that was designed for dress parade rather than for protection. It is of nickel finish elaborately trimmed in brass, and boasts a high crest ornamented with a flowing horse tail, and also a red feather cockade at the side. Other pieces are two Austrian shields, copies of ancient designs, a suit of half-armor from Nuremberg, a steel cuirass from Belgium with its original lining intact, and knives and swords from Persia, North Indi and Venice. The Elinor Merrell collection of painted and printed fabrics continues to provoke comment and to stimulate curiosity. A brief, descriptive card hangs in the gallery, but a volume would be necessary to answer the many inquiries that have come to the museum staff from persons interested in the quaint Indian prints and the charming toiles-de-Jouy. Many modern houses are in the old French style, and nothing could be more appropriate for such dwellings than hangings of toiles-de-Jouy, particularly in the less formal apartments; but chintzes of this sort adapt themselves to a variety of architectural and decorative schemes. Almost any householder of today might add to the charm of his home atmosphere by a judicious selection from such authentic “indiennes” as these lent by Miss Merrell.
The paintings by Jessie Arms Botke and Cornelius Botke will remain on view in Gallery XI through Sunday, Dec. 4. On Dec. 1 the fine examples of French etching will be taken down to make room for the Blanding Sloan prints in Gallery 11. The French etchings are masterpieces of their kind, and deal with a wide variety of subjects. There are the farm scenes by Charles Jacque and Jean Francois Millet;, the charming portraits and figure studies by Albert Besnard—particularly “La Mere Malade” with its tender sentiment and rich, paintlike quality of technique—the dashing “Portrait of a Girl” by Paul Helleu, and the strong, simply massed composition of “La Recette du Cuisinier” by Augustin' Rebot. Other famous names among the artists represented are Tissot, Villevieille, Raffaelli, Saffrey, Brouet, Lepere, Daubigny, Bracquemond, Laurens, Legros, Carolus-Duran, L’Hermitte, Buhot, Meryon and Appian. In the Tuesday afternoon “Survey of Art” course on Nov. 29, Miss Hasselman will talk on “Mohammedan Architecture and Design.” On Dec. 1, Miss Stillson will address her class in the “History of Art” on “The Paintings of Michelangelo and Correggio.” Ocie Higgins, soprano, will appear in recital at the institute on Sunday afternoon, Nov. 27, at 3 o’clock. Miss Higgins was a national winner in the contest held last April in Chicago by the National Federation of Music She is a member of the Zeta chapter of the national music fraternity, Sigma Alpha lota that is connected with the Indiana College of Music and Fine Arts, and she is also a pupil of Glenn Frier-
