M.A. ^ There runs through the works of Augus- tus Saint-Gaudens a dominant note — the underl3ang, pervading quality of truth. In many of his important works there is reveal- ed another element, the theme or thought expressed. In the Sherman monument, there is expressed the glory of the triumphant con- queror; in the Shaw Memorial, the courage and devotion of the patriot; and in the Lin- coln, the patience, and solicitude or love of the great President. This latter quality, the thought expressed, is not less important than the quality of truth — if expressed at all it is of the higheft importance. The sculptor, how- ever, having chosen form as a means of ex- pression, mu^, perforce, express his thought with fidelity to the essential truth of nature. Saint-Gaudens meets this requirement abun- dantly: whether the work be a simple por- trait Study, an allegorical figure, or an imag- inative composition, like the Sherman Vidlory, absolute truth in every detail seems to have been a controlling motive in its execution. ^ In considering these two phases of Saint- Gaudens' art, and, indeed, in climating the work of any sculptor, it should be borne in 7 mind that the power to express a thought, or to record an incident is not the peculiar prop- erty of the sculptor or painter. It is com- mon to all the arts. Writers in all ages have clothed the sentiments of patriotism, devotion and love with glowing, written words. ^ There is this di^indlion to be observed, however; words may only be used to ex- press thought, while form may express the subtle qualities of truth and beauty, quite in- dependent of ^ory or theme. It is the fir^ purpose of plaSic and pidlorial art to call forth the pleasurable sensations and emo- tions, resulting from the simple enjoyment of beauty for its own sake. ^ Certain it is that in the pursuit of simple truth, or perfection, Saint-Gaudens knew no reding place, but followed on, heedless alike of fatigue or discouragement, until he attained the completion and perfedlion of the lea^ and laS detail. ^ He seemed ever ready to go back and corredl, add to or eliminate, that which to him was unsatisfadlory or untrue. If a special sitting to iludy the hand of Stevenson was required, or the removal of the great Sherman monument from Buffalo to Windsor seemed desirable, for the purpose of making slight changes in mane or drapery, he was ready for the trouble and the task. Even after the splendid Sherman was in place at the entrance to Central Park, the writer recalls the sculptor's willingness to make a replica, smaller in size; the more especially, as he 8 said, because to do so would enable him to make some slight changes in details of the work. It was this never ending Sruggle for perfedlion which dominated his life, and en- abled him to secure a high and abiding de- gree of perfedtion in all his work. He knew intimately and he executed faithfully. In the presence of these maSerpieces we are, I fear, prone to forget the years of unremit- ting labor they represent. ^ To understand fully the perfedl flower, as represented in the final and supreme consum- mation of Saint-Gaudens' art, one must have watched its growth; one must have sat be- side the young Sudent in Paris, during days of privation and labor, while he leamed to search out the essential qualities of things, and while he labored to mold and fashion the forms he approved. More than this, one would have had to follow down the path of time, during the succeeding forty years, and to have observed the intense application, the conSant, thoughtful observation, and the ever- laying effort of the never reding indent as he ^udied, and Sudied, and Sudied nature in her ever-varying moods and multitudinous forms. It was because he did all this that he was able, having comprehended Lincoln's innermost charadler, to represent the great President in form so true that it is ^artling in its simple and almost perfedt reality. ^ Saint-Gaudens did not create the character of Lincoln ; it exited before he undertook the work, but he mu^ have dfevoted an infinite 9 amount of ^udy to the life of the great Presi- dent to have so fully comprehended and to have so successfully represented him. ^ In the presence of this superb work, one feels that the man who wrote the Gettysburg ad- dress must have possessed all the dignity, pathos and impressive di^inction expressed by it. ^ It was simply given Saint-Gaudens to com- prehend the charader of the patient, gentle leader; and because he underwood and had the supreme ability to express his conception in form, his work is imperishable, ^ Beside this work, all that remains to visibly represent Lincoln are a few portraits and photographs, and not all of these represent the spirit of the man in full measure. Prob- ably the tender and lovely print representing him reading to little " Tad " more fully ex- presses the charadler of Lincoln, as Saint- Gaudens seems to have felt it, than any other. At leaS, it represents Lincoln as we have, through a hundred avenues of information, learned to know and to love him. Q What is true of Saint-Gaudens' Lincoln is equally true of his Sherman. He understood the grim and resolute charadler of the great general with certainty, and his portrait of the vidlorious warrior is one of the marvelous charadler Indies of modem sculpture. It is at the same time one of the most inspiring, intelledlual representations of an exalted theme', The Vidlor Triumphant, ever recorded by art or literature. And as this work represents the home coming of the 10 battle-wom general, led by the spirit of vic- tory, in like manner and with equal force does the Shaw memorial represent the patriotic spirit and devotion of the soldier, departing for the scene of battle, led by the spirit of duty. The martial tread of the colored soldiers, the proud, confident bearing of the youthful white officer, the suggeftion of con- Hidl conveyed by the accoutrements and arms, are all expressed with power and fidelity. The Shaw memorial is truly inspiring, and eloquently expresses the sense of duty which led the young officer and his men forth to do battle in the cause of humanity. ^ In each of these works there is combined with the literary theme presented, the uncom- promising, sympathetic, simple truth of nature. It matters not which of these qualities you place firS in importance, whether the qual- ity of truth or the thought expressed, it is absolutely essential that both be perfectly expressed in works of a subjedl character. ^ Saint-Gaudens understood this perfectly. He combined, with a perfedl ma^ery, the theme with the purely sculptural qualities of form, in such manner as to appeal at once to * the ae^hetic sense and to the moft potent sentiments of. the human mind. He pos- sessed the power to portray an exalted thought in truthful terms, as have few men in the hiSory of art. Truly, as Saint-Gaudens said, "You can do an5rthing you please. It's the way it's done that makes the difference." 11 HEAD OF VICTORY. Number 85. AUGUSTUS SAINT-GAUDENS. Q "You can do anjrthing you pleaie. It's the way it's done that makes the difference." — Augusttis Saint-Gaudens, (I Augurs Saint-Gaudens, by birth half French and half Irish, by nature and training American, came to this country at his mother's breait in 1 848 when six months old. His father, Bernard Paul Ernest Saint- Gaudens, was born in the little village of Aspet in the south of France. There he leamed his trade of shoe- maker, and thence he slowly travelled by way of Paris and London to Dublin, Ireland, where he met his future wife, Mary McGuiness, who bound slip- pers in the shoe Store for which he made boots. On arriving in New York this hot-headed, eccentric Frenchman, to the detriment of his trade, developed infinitely more intere^ in organizing Fraternal Societies than in selling shoes. Consequently, from the firA, Augurs Saint-Gaudens, the third of five sons, took part in the family Struggle for a livelihood. ^ Until the age of thirteen the youngster received the ordinary education of the New York boy of 1 850. Those were the days of lickings at the hands of his teacher, and of fights with the WeSt Broadway "gang"; and the Struggle with these elements shaped the energy which lasted him through life. Yet despite his prosaic surroundings his artistic inclinations took shape early. They originated with the representation of soldiers upon 13 a school slate. They emerged through charcoal- scrawled drawings upon the neighboring walls. And finally they were recognized by Dr. Rea Agnew, a cuftomer of Bernard Saint-Gaudens, who found such merit in the young man's sketches that he urged the father to continue his son's education in this diredtion. ^ In consequence the boy was apprenticed to a hard- tempered man named Avet, one of the flr§t ^one cameo cutters in America, who led Augustus a miserable life for the next few years. At the same time the boy entered the drawing school of the Cooper Institute. There he ^udied evenings until in 1 864 he revolted at the ill nature of his employer, and upon being dis- charged, obtained a position with a more kindly master, Jules LeBrethon, and at about the same time left the Cooper Union to work from "the life in the National Academy of Design. ^ This period of Saint-Gaudens' youth passed in the excitement of the days of the Civil War. From his window he looked down upon the New England Vol- unteers marching along Broadway, in the city squares he witnessed the recruiting ; and these sights, combined with a glimpse of Lincoln driving through the city, birred his blood with that Strong but restrained patri- otism which finally he fused into his monuments of Farragut, Lincoln, Shaw, Logan and Sherman. ^ But the New York life came to an end in 1 867 when his father made possible for him a trip abroad. The young man went at once to Paris, where, though Still earning his living by cutting cameos, he Studied firSt at the Petite Elcole and later under Jouffroy in the Ecole des Beaux Arts. His maSter at that time led a revolt againSl the bloodless classicism of the period. Yet as the teacher never gave radical vent to his theories, so 14 through later life the pupil tempered by a Readying reftraint his desire for individual expression. ^ In Paris Saint-Gaudens, a cheerful, athletic youth, made his two great friends who ^ood close to him all his life, M. Paul Bion and M. Alfred Gamier. Because of their friendship he nearly enli^ed in the French army when the war with Prussia broke out. But a tearful letter from his mother changed his plans, so that in^ead he went to Rome, where, for about four years, he Aruggled with poverty and debts in his efforts to complete his training. At laS, however, the cameo- cutting brought him a few lucky commissions from the family of Mr. Montgomery Gibbs, and gave Saint- Gaudens an opportunity to finish his firft ^atue of "Hiawatha," to execute his firSt ordered monument, a figure of "Silence," and to go back to America with some prospedt of definite work. ^ The young man's career in the United States did not Wretch out before him immediately in any such ^aight and easy manner as he may have expedted. Firit one hope and then another fell through, though an occasional small task like that of the relief of Mr. D. Maitland Arm^rong, came to his hands. But at laft, after fteady persiSence, he obtained the order for the Farragut ^atue now in Madison Square, New York. From that day his position was assured, and soon he secured the opportunity to aid Mr. John LaFarge by modelling the sculpture for that painter's scheme of "Angels Adoring the Cross" in St. Thomas' Church on Fifth Avenue. So then, after founding the Society of American Arlifls with a number of other young men, and after his long-delayed marriage to Miss Augu^a F. Homer, he went back to Paris to carry out his work. ^ There in Paris he completed the Farragut and the 15 Adoring Angels, though these larger commissions did not represent the only important ^ep which he took at the time. He had long been intereSed in the subjedl of Renaissance reliefs £ind medals, such as those by Pisano, and Mr. LaFarge had already urged him to try his hand at like efforts. Accordingly, here, at laSt, he found an opportunity to begin upon a series of medallions which through life he developed with marked intere^, among them those of Mr. William Gedney Bunce, Mr, Charles F. McKim, Mr. George W. Maynard, and especially that of M. Ba^en Lepage. f[ At laa, with the completion of the Farragut, Saint- Gaudens definitely returned to New York to take up his well-eSablished career as an American sculptor. For a time he lived in the Sherwood Studios at the corner of Fifty-seventh Street and Sixth Avenue. But soon he found a building at 1 48 We^ Thirty-sixth Street which he altered to his taSe. There he continued to model for the next fifteen years, Parting with the angels for the tomb of Ex-Governor Morgan, a monument which was burned in the cemetery while in process of carving. fl Here, too, in the Thirty-sixth Street ^dio, Saint- Gaudens gathered about him the friends of his life ; such men as Mr. Stanford White, Mr. Charles F. McKim, Mr. Joseph Wells, and Mr. Thomas W. Dewing. Here Mr. H. H. Richardson, the Bo^on architedl, brought Bisnop Phillips Brooks whenever the two men visited New York, giving the sculptor the opportunity of meeting the preacher, a monument to whom was to be one of his laSt completed works. And here, as a boy to Sudy art and to sweep the floors, came Frederick William MacMonnies. ^ Seiint-Gaudens had always been a lover of the 16 theatre and of music. Now he found others who resembled him in their enthusiasm. Therefore, hx&. this group, SIS well as Mr. Francis Lathrop, formed the habit of going to a little beer saloon on the £a^ side of Broadway, opposite Washington Place, to li^en to programmes furnished them by the peculiar combination of a violin, a clarinet and a piano. Then they employed the musicians to come on Sunday after- noons to the Thirty-sixth Street Studio. And, a little later, they devdoped more ambitious concerts which were held there weekly during the winters while the ^dio remained in Saint-Gaudens* hcmds. ^ The intimacy with Mr. Richardson, which sprang up rapidly, led to Saint-Gaudens receiving the order for the monument to Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, which ^ands in front of the State House in Bo^on. On firA consideration, the arti^ planned a mode^ relief, but, during the fourteen years devoted to it, the com- position became a labor of love which consumed more of the sculptor's energy than he ever put into any other conrniission. The work upon the scaffolding before the Shaw during the hot summers with scarcely a pause to eat an apple for lunch undoubtedly ha^ened the breakdown of Saint-Gaudens' health. Yet, on the other hand, the monument furnished him with much amusement — an amusement which he invariably ob- tained from his art — ^both through the antics of the horse which posed for him, and through the very difficulties he encountered in hiring negro models, who persi^ed in believing the ^dio to be the den of a devil of vivisedlion. ^ Along in this early period, too, Ccune the Lincoln for Chicago, provided for in the will of Mr. Eli Bates, and the relief of Dr. James McCosh for Princeton, 17 New ]etKy. In die case of the Lincoh the committee firA juked Saint'-Gaudeiis to compete. But upon his refusing, according to his princ^Ie, he recdved die order outri^ and eventually produced the gaunt, thoughtful figure now so well known. QThe ^tue to Deacon Samuel Chapin, popularly known as "The Puritan," followed the lincohi. It has since acquired especial intere^ as in 1 903 the New England Socie^ of Pennsylvania commissioned the sculptor to make for Philadelphia a variation of the firil work, and so therein Saint-Gaudens obtained one of his few opportunities of modifying his earlier efforts in accordance with his later ideeis. The head he changed from the round Gaelic face of Chapin to a long New England profile, more typical of the au^ere forefather, while the folds of the cloak, the Bible and the base, he also altered to an extent. ^ After the Chapin ^tue, Mr. Henry Adams ordered the figure for the Rock Creek Cemetery in Washington. In giving the commission Mr. Adams would only sugge^ that Saint-Gaudens consult with Mr. LaFarge, who thoroughly underwood Mr. Adams' oriental thoughts. Therefore, the sculptor carried out his task as well as he could with the advice of the painter and ultimately, it seems, satisfied the wishes of Mr. Adams. Though there have been a variety of names accorded the result, Saint-Gaudens rarely expressed himself on the subjedt. fl During this time, while engaged upon the Rock Creek figure, Saint-Gaudens, at the suggestion of his friend, Mr. C. C. Beaman, firft visited Cornish, New Hampshire. There, soon afterwards, he bought an old brick tavern which he altered into a sunmier home. And there, sixteen years later, he went to live perma- nently, much to the benefit of his la^ days. 18 ^ About that date also, in 1 887, the sculptor met Robert Louis Stevenson through Mr. Will H. Low, an intimate mutual friend. The author and the sculptor at once admired one another, and the medallion, which has since assumed so many forms, Saint-Gaudens modelled in the Hotel Albert in Eleventh Street, Stevenson propped up in bed and his wife reading aloud. Only five sittings of two or three hours apiece could be obtained then, though later Saint-Gaudens had further opportunity when Stevenson lived at Manisquan, New Jersey. ^ Shortly after this Saint-Gaudens set at modelling the figure for the "Smith" tomb in Newport, Rhode Island, from which he developed the better known "Amor Caritas." The firS variation is now in the Luxem- bourg, Paris, while a second Stsa6s as a memorial to the daughter of Dr. S. Weir Mitchell in St. Stephen's Church, Philadelphia. fl In 1 892, when the idea for the World's Fair had reached definite form, Saint-Gaudens, at the invitation of Mr. Daniel H. Bumham, went to Chicago with Mr. Richard M. Hunt, Mr. Charles F. McKim and others, as one of the Committee on the laying-out of the grounds. This was about the firil of a long series of like tasks which the sculptor lindertook through his life, hopmg in such a way to aid the cause of art in his country. Mr. Bumham desired that Saint-Gaudens model a share of the sculpture. But the latter had so many calls upon him that he gave his personal attention only to the figure of Columbus in front of the Admin- i^ation Building, which he carried out with the able assistance of Mrs. Francois M. L. Tonetti, then Miss Mary Lawrence, and to the Exposition Medal of which he designed the obverse. Upon the reverse of 19 the Medal he originally modelled a nude boy, which raised a feminine hue and cry. At firft he tried to satisfy this in a number of ways, but failing, he relin- quished the attempt in disgu^. ^ The ilatue of Peter Cooper now took the place of the Rock Creek Cemetery figure upon the scaffolding behind the Shaw relief, which seemed almoA a fixture. On the top floor of a large ^able in Twentieth Street, the sculptor began one monument to General Logan for the Lake Front in Chicago, and another to President James A. Garfield for Fairmount Park, Philadelphia. While in a third and smaller ^dio, Saint-Gaudens modelled the horse of the Sherman from the famous high jumper Ontario, began the figure for the Sherman Vidtory from the woman whom he always considered to be the handsomest model he had ever seen, and finished with great intereft his bas-relief of Mr. Wil- liam Dean Howells and his daughter, Miss Mildred Howells. ^ Before turning from his life in New York, mention should be made of Saint-Gaudens' teachiiig at the Art Student's League. His work there held a firm place in his thoughts. Again and again in later years he said regarding it that he always had felt surprised to see that for the mo^ part women learned more readily than men, and that they copied what Sood before them with greater facility, but that in the end the men made the further progress and composed and created to more purpose. ^ During these laft years, however, the sculptor's nervousness increased ^artlingly through overwork. Also he became anxious to compare what he had done wath the sculpture recognized in Europe. So, as the unveiling of the Logan and the Shaw allowed him 20 to shift his ^dio paraphernalia, he left for Paris in Odlober, 1 897. There he hired a ^dio in a quiet, garden-like alley at 3 bis Rue de Bagneux, where he remodelled the Sherman Cloak, the figure of the Vidtory and variations of the Stevenson for St. Giles Church in Edinburgh, and where he began his ^dies for the figures of the Bo^on Public Library. ^ For some time Saint-Gaudens seemed unhappy and neura^enic. But after a trip to his father's birthplace with his old friend M. Alfred Gamier, he retumed in better spirits and took up his life in Paris smd his in- timacy with Dr. Henry Shiff and those others he had known so well in younger days. He said later that the three men who to him ^ood out before all the re^ at that time were James MacNeill Whiftler, Paul Dubois and AuguAe Rodin. Saint-Gaudens regarded Paul Dubois* josai of Arc as one of the greater ^atues in the world. But Whiter in person moit attracted the sculptor. For the painter came often to the ^dio in the evening and chatted with his usual wit, or accompanied Sciint-Gaudens and his friends to their dinner at Foyot's, an old cafe opposite the Luxembourg. So, with such sunoundings, with the gay life of the Parisian spring, with the benefit of a trip or two in Spain, and with the success accorded him by the French after his exhibitions in Paris, he regained his buoysmcy, until suddenly he learned that he was ill and mu£t go home. ^ Saint-Gaudens' retum to America in 1 900 marked the la^ period of his life, a period which he spent for the moft part in Cornish, New Hampshire. There he completed, besides lesser commissions, his monuments to Sherman, Lincoln, Brooks and- the Caryatids for the Albright Art Gallery in Buffalo ; and there he renewed his thoughts upon the groups to go before the Bo^on 21 Public Library. At this time, too, his attention turned more than ever before toward helping the cause of American Art. Two objedts in especial interefted him to a tremendous extent. One was the founding in Rome of the American Academy to be devoted to the Fine Arts much in the same manner as the Villa Medici School has been devoted by the French Government. The other was the arti^c development of the National Capitol at Washington ; where, in con- nedtion with The Park Commission, he spent much time and gave the be^ of his assi^ance in criticism and advice toward e^blishing on an even firmer basis the beauty of that city. Luckily, although ill, he continued his work for longer than expedted because of his life in the open air. Skating, skeeing and golf he kept up while his health held out. And, at lait, when he no longer could walk, he would sit by the hour upon one of the porches, or he would have himself carried from ^dio to ^dio in an improvised Sedan chair. Q His firit serious occupation lay in the completion of the German monument, which he modified from the model exhibited in Paris, ^dying the bronze after it had been set up in the field back of the house and changing it even then. On the Sherman also, he gratified his ambition to follow the example set by the ^atue of Marcus Aurelius on the Capitoline Hill in Rome and to gild an eque^rian monument. For, as he expressed it, he was "sick of seeing ^atues look like ^ove pipes." ^ Second in importance to him, he had by him in his itudio the ^dies for the BoSon Public Library Groups, constantly turning over the question of their develop- ment. One pede^al would have borne four figures symbolic of ELxecutive Power, Law and Love. Upon 22 the other base he planned three figures of Science, Labor and Music. For his own purpose, the ^dies were ready to be completed, and if he had lived he would have finished them in short order. They had long been upon his conscience. Yet to him the problem seemed so difficult, since the figures were to ^and where they would force themselves upon the Library visitor, that he felt unwilling to carry them through until freed from financial considerations or the limita- tions of ill health. ^ The "Crerar" Lincoln, also for Chicago, was the next vital commission which he set to work upon after the Sherman, and therein he carried out his old desire of representing the President seated. The firS Lincoln had been a landing figure of Lincoln the Man, and now by way of contra^ he wished to represent in addition a seated Lincoln the Head of the State. Therefore, to accompb'sh the purpose fittingly, he took up one of his series of endless experiments with four- foot models, composed in \&tying ways, and with full-sized painted paper representations of the entire composition eredted out of doors. The monument is yet to be unveiled, but it went to the bronze founder some time before the sculptor's death. ^ Another ^atue which Saint-Gaudens attacked with ze^ at virtually this same time, was of Charles Stewart Pamell, for Dublin, Ireland. The artist took intere^ here, because, as he often remarked, he had enough Irish in his make-up to appreciate the charadter of his subjedt. It is a peculiar coincidence that as few photo- graphs of Pamell could be found, the sculptor turned to a series of caricatures published in Punch and like papers during Parnell's trial. So the very sketches drawn to attack the patriot ultimately came to be used in his honor. 23 ^ At this time, also, among his lesser commissions, Saint-Gaudens completed such bu^s as that o{ the Honorable John Hay and such reliefs as those of Mrs. C. C. Beaman, Juftice Horace Gray, the Honorable Wayne MacVeagh and his Wife, and Ju^ce and Mrs. Stanley Matthews. Probably the commission for the MacVeagh family absorbed him the mo^. The sculptor had often dwelt upon the ^ong magnetic power of the female sex as contra^ed with the donu- nation of the masculine intelledt, and therefore here delighted in giving rein to his theories. Yet all portraits held his attention since he thoroughly enjoyed the peculiarities of his sitters, attempting habitually to shift his mental attitude to that of the person beside him, whether it was a hyper-sensitive woman or a rugged man. ^ It seems especially unfortunate, in view of his ill health, that upon the night of Odober eleventh, 1 904, his chief ^dio should have burned to the ground, not only with all the sculpture in progress, but as well with mo^ of his portfolios containing the records of forty years. But he bravely set about recovering his lo^ ground, and before long had his commissions again well under way. ^Soon after this (ire he returned to the Brooks monument which he had Audied since 1901, and which he carried so far that only mechanical enlarge- ment and ca^ng was needed for its completion at the time of his death. As finished, the figure of the preacher stands to the front of an architectural canopy. His left hand grasps a Bible that re§ls upon a ledtem, his right hand is raised in a ge^re of emphasis, while the swing of the gown and the diredt look from the head gives an atmosphere of energy and motion. Behind the Brooks, and again^ a cross that rises by His side, is a 24 figure of ChriA, half shadowed, veiled, reposeful, who touches the preacher on the shoulder with His right hand as if inspiring the words to be spoken. The complete monument Saint-Gaudens reached through his usual succession of alterations. In his fir^ efforts he had an angel with the Brooks. Then he designed two figures of the Chri^ in relief. And only after much thought did he decide to make this ideal figure in the round. ^ Saint-Gaudens* work now drew to its close, and his final tasks included solely the designs for three of the United States coins. The Caryatids for the Albright Art Gallery, and the bas-relief of his wife. ^ The coins he undertook at the suggestion of Presi- dent Roosevelt. But the confusion of the carrying out of this commission often made him regret that he had entered u{>on it. Finally, however, after a discussion which lasted over a year and a half, it was settled that the Cent should exhibit a profile head on one side and lettering alone on the other; that the Ten-Dollar gold piece should carry the same head with shifted inscrip- tions and a i^anding eagle; and that the Twenty- Dollar gold piece should show a full length figure of Liberty and a flying eagle. The flying eagle Saint- Gaudens developed from the bird on the 1 857 white Cent. The landing eagle, he re-altered from a design he had used on such works as the Shaw Memorial, the Roosevelt Inauguration Medal and the shield of the Garfield Monument. Seventy or more models of the bird were to be seen in the ^dio waiting for the casual visitor to name his preference. The profile head Saint-Gaudens modelled in relief from an unused bu^ for the Sherman Vidtory, while the full length Liberty he'^rendered from a scheme he had long had in mind. It is mo^ unfortunate that the Mint did not notify the 25 sculptor when they abandoned the thought of a new design for the Cent, as thereon he wafted precious hours ; while the placing of the motto " In God We Truft" on the gold coins by other hands than his, will sill further mar a composition which has already suffered greatly in the process of reprodudtion. ^ The Catyatids, his final large commission, absorbed him to a tremendous degree and marked his ultimate tendency to draw away from the decorative in favor of the monumental. As the building they were to adom is large and reposeful, the sculptor wished to refledl these qualities. Firft he considered having winged figures. Then he believed it might be well to place garlands in their hands. Next he originated the scheme wherein the four central Caryatids held lettered tablets, those on the ends carrying palms. Finally he decided to place palms in the hands of the ones on the corners, while the middle figures should bear objects which denoted Architedture, Painting, Sculpture and Music. ^ The relief which he made of Mrs. Saint-Gaudens was the lait work which he touched with his hands. The composition diverted him greatly as he could work on it while seated. But his death came before he could finish it. fl During the laft few years Saint-Gaudens was ill for much of the time, yet whenever pain left him for a few hours, his courage and his hope returned and he con- ftantly repeated to his friends that life became more and more worth living as each day passed.

The onyx cameo which I am also sendmg you for ex- hibition is one of the laA things made by him while with my father, Jules Le Brethon.
