satyrs, the advantage of natural backgrounds. In addition to the
contemporaneous sculpture there are some famous pieces here, such as
Saint-Gaudens' Lincoln, brought from Chicago, and the copy of Bartlett's
equestrian Lafayette. Among recent sculpture, one of the most
interesting works shown is a group by C. L. Pietro, of New York, "The
Mother of the Dead,"--a powerful story in bronze of the burden which
the war has brought to woman. (See p. 120.) Pietro's modeling is worthy
of an older artist. Another human tragedy is well told in "The Outcast,"
a graphic figure by Attilio Piccirilli. (p. 136.) Charming bits of
comedy are the whimsical little fountain pieces by Janet Scudder and
Anna Coleman Ladd. The honor-winners in sculpture are named in the
following list.
