OIL CITY, PENNA. THE C0L0K SCHEME. TINTS OF PAN-AMERICAN BUILDINGS WILL BE SYMBOLICAL Varrlns Tone. Will Indicate the De velopment of Man's Color Sen. and Ita HeflnenientDlrector Tur ner Writes o( Ilia I'lan. Tlio color scheme of the Tan-American Exposition follows the plan of Sculptural embellishment conceived and being executed by Mr. Karl Bitter, the Director of Sculpture of tbe Expo sition, and supplements Ills work. As the sculpture will symbolize the prog ress of the race so the color scheme will represent In epitome the prowth of the color sense of the race. The colors at the main entrance to the grounds and about the Triumphal Iirldge will be exceedingly warm, sueirestlng a wel come to visitors, and this part of the WW T CHARLES J. TURXER, Jt. A. IDirectot ot Colur, rin-Anuricin Eipoaitlon. Exposition has very appropriately been dedicated to our neighbors In the West ern Hemisphere. All the savage races have manifested a great fondness for strong, crude col ors, and these will be found on the buildings nearest the main entrance. The advancement of man In Intelli gence and civilization has been marked by a desire for more refined color com binations, and the culminating polut of subtlety and grace of color being In the Electric Tower, which, representing the highest advance In material civili sation and occupying the leading posi tion architecturally and sculpturally of the whole Exposition, naturally enough has come In for the finest color notes. It la a happy future of the color scheme that the bu Minz-i upon which the artist "'il t iwiyi'My lavish pow erful colon all lie ubout the southern entrance. A regular gradation from In tense to lis pronounced coloring Is thus possible. As the majority of peo ple will come In from the southern en trance tuoy wiil get an Impression of bright, i i li. fivMi color. They will not, however, have time to grow weary with the brilliancy, rtefore their eyes are laded they will have got Into the ;-'r fii; 1 m rvgiou or more sortiy tinted surfaces. It must not be supposed, however, that the primitive color schemes are In themselves harsh or bad or crude. Va rious devices have been adopted for se curing harmony. For one thing, the greater part of the exterior wall spaces are all In warm white. Color Is employed only at struc tural points In the architecture, m about entrances. Furthermore, no primitive color Is brought Into direct contrast with other primitive colors; a masa of Ivory white always Intervenes. This gives grent brilliancy and pre vents chromatic discords. The quality of white used on tbe buildings varies from a warm creamy white near the bridge to a cool Ivory tone at the Elec tric Tower. As an essential means of promoting harmony green. In at least n few notes, Is employed In the adornment of every building of the Exposition. The beauti ful translucent green of Niagara has been fitly chosen as the dominant color of the whole scheme. Appearing In Its fullness In the recesses of the Electric Tower and In the restaurant group be hind. It Is everywhere repeated. Not a building but bears Its echo mark of Ni agara green The color schemes of a few of the buildings may be noted: Horticulture Orange, with details In brilliant blue, greon. rose and yellow. Governmental-Yellow, with details In primitive colors. Music Hall-Red. Machinery (Ireonlsh gray. Restaurant :roup Ivory, accented n lth green and gold. Electric Tower Ivory, yellow, gold and green. Tbe roofs of the Exposition are for the most part covered with red tiles, though prominent towers and pinnacles will be In mnny cases decorated with green or blue green or with gold. All the buildings will have a play of colors about their entrances, balconies, pinnacles and towers. My Idea Is to have the sharpest and freshest green known carried throughout the entire scheme, and that will be my reference fo power. Oreen Is one of the more re cent and refined colors. It has not long been used In art. Tick up any picture painted long ago. and you will look in vain for a suggestion of green In It. The grass will be represented as brown. They said It was Impossible to secure the grass green effect, but It Is done nowadays. The color scheme has for the most part been worked out at my studio In New Vork. The first step was to get from the architects small sketches of all the buildings. Models were made from these on a scale of one-sixteenth Inch to the foot which when properly grouped on a pisiform 12 by 10 feet ret rescued tue enure bxjiositiou In minia ture. Each uiojcl was colored In ac cordance with the general scheme, and its relationship to surrounding build ings carefully studied. Many of them had to be piiluted several tluica la-fore suitable results were secured. Once the structures of the miniature city were all harmonious colored, drawings of the Individual buildings were made, nnd the decorations accu rately worked out to the last detail un til they were in readiness to be placed ill the hands of the intelligent palulcr- ueiwaior. When the time arrived to begin painting. It was found that the build ings in the middle of the grounds were the only ones ou which work could Ih doue, and thou the value of my model was demonstrated. Mr. Washburuo was enabled to readily translate from the model to the buildings without dan ger of breaking the harmony of the scheme. The coloring of exposition buildings has been undertaken a number of times, but In most cases has been abandoned before taking real shape White has been most popular, though It Is severe on the eyesight After the numerous failures It retiulred consider able courage on the part of the Fan- American Exposition builders to take up the odor scheme. Having started out, however, they are determined not to turn back. If the color scheme proves successful, as I have every roa son to believe It will, it will be n novel ty nnd mark a new era of Improvement In the treatment of architecture. The advisability of applying color to large buildings has always been questioned. The matter needs a grent deal of care and thought. All coloring Is the subject of more or less criticism of an unfavor able character. We will da reninrka bly well If we escape It at this Expo sition. However, we have put our hands to the plow, as It were, and we must not look behind. The t'aie for the work Is limited, and all must be done during the most unfavorable period of the year. We must employ a large force, til ing all our Ingenuity Into action and push forward. After the painters have done their work I shall go carefully over It. and skilled artists will supply tone If necessary. This will be equlv? lent to the "varnishing day" of tli artist Then the result of mir efforts f. produce a harmonious and pleasing color sclieme will go before the public, and It Is to lie hoped that our critics will bear In mind the novelty of the undertaking and all the adverse clr enmstauces under which we have la bored.
