National Art Week. The showing also is a part of ‘the long range program of Wilbur D. Peat, the ‘Museum’s director, to better acquaint Indianapolis with its own arlists. © Through his research, Mr. Peat has ‘been able to catalog over 100 known. Cox pictures. From local homes, the State Library and the Museum, he has selected 33 for this outstanding exhibit of the season. These include a cross ggction of the artist's works, most of them in oils, a few in pastels. Although Cox’s forte was portraits, his favorites were landscape themes—several of which are included in the show. His pictures: all have a human interest angle for they include pairitings of pioneer figures, who were the parents and grandparents of several prominent local persons. The landscapes, many of them painted when the city numbered only a mere ‘5000 residents, include one of Pogue’s Run, the present site of the Union Station, and another of Fall Creek, near the present site of St. Vincent's Hospital.

exhibit, there is an extensive discussion of Cox’s‘life which bids fair to ‘be something of a historical contribution in itself. By diligent} searching in files of the pioneer| newspapers and‘a few other sources the museum staff has pieced together an interesting biography which reflects Indianapolis. during}. Cox’s life span, 1810-1892. Cox was a tinner by profession
afid it was not until he was 31 that he seriously embarked on an art career. He had had no formal schooling and for ‘a time continued tin-ware trade. Gradually the demand for his work as a portrait} artist took: all his time. Mr. Peat points out that he painted practically everyone of prominence in Indianapolis ‘during his day. ‘In fact, he was 0 occupied that he did not take ‘the ‘trouble to exhibit his work out of the state and so never became known nationally.

technical assistance—not to men-} tion financial aid. Among those he} helped or partially taught were} William ‘Miller, the miniature painter; Joseph O.
