Oxford, nas been studying for more than a
week the raie and graceful traceries of ancient
Etruscan vases. The University collection la
one nf the most complete In the world, and
naturally attracted Professor Beazley, who le
Inspecting virtually all collections of any note.
He Is preparing the first book to bo devoted
exclusively to the artistic side of Etruscan
pottcrv.
When Rome was an Insecure little hill town
2M0 years ago. Its neighbors north of the Tiber
were making the great and little .vases which
were to form tho most beautiful antique treas
ures possessed In America. A hundred years
later wild bands from the mountains ravaged
Etrurla, and the Roman soldiers of the next
generation found the Inhabitants easy prey,
physically and racially, to their martial dom
inance. Pottery making, with the extinction of
Etruscan individuality, ceased, but in their
brief time the Etruscans had made ases such
as the world has never made since.
Practically all Etruscan pottery Is Ihely with
human figures. These represent, with painstak
ing accuracy, the dally life of the people, or
tho events of their history, and It Is because
archaeologists have been more Interested In
reading the history of the mysterious pre
Roman period from these cryptic records that
the purely nrtlstic side of the study has been
more or less neglected. In spite of the difficul
ties before him, Doctor Beazley I3 making sat
isfactory progress with his work, and has al
ready catalogued moat of the extant specimens
In the world Into their rightful schools. A
great many of tho vases bear the names of
their makers, and those which are not signed
can usually be assigned to a particular period
and culture.
A wine Jar, mounted with a trainer and his
two fiery steeds, has especially atracted the
English scholar's attention, and he intends to
institute a search of all the museums in the
world In an endeavor to find its counterpart.
The design of the figures Is remarkably bold
and realistic.
