7mous Bartobmeo Colleom Statue inVenice

EQUESTRIAN STATUEOFsS qtMTSiSSSf9' ' Y A, XCX ? IN THE SQUARE IN FRONT " ' '

Venice has but a few horses, and tbose few, are In bronze. But one of them Is worth all other horses in the wotld. It Is the one of the monument to Bartolomeo Colleonl, the great captain of the republic of Venice. It was erected In the fifteenth century on the square of the Guild of St. Mark', which Is the magnificent building near the cathedral of SS. John and Paul. The great Colleonl, whose modesty was not proportionate to his value, left a will disposing that this equestrian statue should be erected on the Square of St. Mark. But there was a drastic law forbidding that any statue be put In the celebrated square, and the wise Venetian senate found a way of resolving the controversy, ordering that the manument be erected in the Square of the Scola of St Mark. Andrea Verrocchio, the famous Florentine artist, the master of Leonardo da Vinci, modelled the wonderful equestrian statue, which, after his death, was finished and cast in bronze by the Venetian Leopard!, who created also the precious marble base. Such a Jewel of sculpture, considered the most beautiful equestrian statue that exists today, was protected since the beginning of the war by a scaffold covered with a strong Iron roof and upholstered In the Interior with sacks of sand. But 'ast fall, when the danger of an Austrian invasion of Venice appeared to be every day more possible, It was decided to take away the precious Middleboro, Ind. Rev. Louis F.

PROTECTIVE WORK WHICH RENDERED WHEN STATUE WAS REMOVED TO ROME TO INSUS ITS ABSOLUTE. SAFETY bronze to the other side of the Appenlnes. This work happened to be full of difficulties and surprises.
