The Centennial exhibition
showed 48 paintings valued at
more than a quarter of a million
dollars. It was the first major loan
exhibition ever brought to the
University and the first ever held
on the theme of the history of
painting in Pennsylvania. Paint
ings were borrowed from mus
eums and priv a t e collectors
throughout the country.
Forty-six painters from the
early 18th to the 20th centuries
were represented in the exhibi
tion. Living artists were not in
cluded. Thomas Eakins and Ben
jamin West were represented by
two paintings each, and the other
artists by one work each.
The paintings in the exhibition
are being shipped to NeW York,
where they will be reassembled
and packed for traveling. Several
paintings on display at the Uni
versity will not be available for
the tour. Substitutions will be
made, according to Dr. Dickson,
who served as chairman of the
Centennial exhibition.
The exhibition catalogue, pre
pared by Dr. Dickson, will be on
sale at all showings. It is sold
locally in the Hetzel Union Build
ing and may be ordered by mail,
postpaid, from the Pattee Li
brary. The 124:-page catalogue,
with 50 full-page plates, offers a
concise history of painting in
Pennsylvania.
