Opening June 7th for the summer months, the Brooklyn Museum will display in its gallery, usually devoted to current Exhibitions, a large series of canvasses belonging to the Museum but not recently exhibited. Included with these will be several important loans and recent accessions.
With its limited exhibition space the Museum is obliged to place in its storage vaults many canvasses that have proved popular with the public. This exhibition will give an opportunity for re-acquaintance with these pictures.
Many schools and varying tastes in art will be represented. The modern school is represented among others by Edy LeGrand and Medard VerBurgh; and vater colors by Foujita, Thornton Oakley, Bernard Lintott, Willian Zorach, Andre L'Hote and others. For contrast and comparison there names from other days, William Merrit Chase, Bouguereau, Hughes Merle and the romantic P. A. Cot. There is a very good example of an early Corot.
The late Louis C. Tiffany, founder of the Tiffany Foundation, is represented by a large picture of an Oriental scene. George Hall the American painter of the middle 19th century is the author of a large canvas inspired by the Slavery question. Also among the American represented are the brothers, Francis and Bolton Jones each represented by a characteristic canvas.
