The Institution was chartered by Act of Congress May 24, 1870. By that act the building and its contents were declared exempt from all taxation. The original building was designed by Mr. James Renwick, architect, and begun in 1859, but before completion, early in 1861, it was occupied by the United States Quartermaster- General's Department until 1869. On the 10th of May, 1869, its owner placed it in the hands of a Board of nine Trustees for the purposes already named. After the Institution was incorporated by Congress, in 1870, the general work of reconstruction and adaptation of the building to its original purpose was begun, and finished in 1871. In 1873 a Trustee went to Europe empowered to purchase works of art for the Gallery, and Mr. Corcoran's private col- lection of pictures and statuary was then placed in it. On November 6, 1873, the Board of Trustees completed the organ- ization of the Institution. On the 19th of January, 1874, the Picture Galleries, Octagon Room, and the Hall of Bronzes were thrown open for private exhibition by day and night, Mr. Corcoran receiving the congratulations of his friends upon the fulfilment thus far of his munificent plans. On April 29, 1874, the Halls of Sculpture and of Bronzes were opened to the public, and in December, 1874, the two side galleries of sculpture adjoining the Main Hall ; so that all the rooms of the Institution for exhibition purposes were then opened to the public. ^ THE PRESENT GALLERY The building on the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and Seventeenth Street was used for the purposes for which it was intended until it became apparent that, as planned, it would, in a comparatively short time, be wholly inadequate for the proper display of the works of art belonging to the Gallery, while larger and better facilities were already required for the rapidly growing Free School of Art, for which thoughtful provision had been previously made by Mr. Corcoran. At the same time it was found that, through inability to acquire land adjoining its site, it would be impossible to enlarge the then existing building so as to meet the future wants of the two establish- ments. These conditions impressed upon the minds of the Trustees the necessity of providing, without d^elay, fojr the erection of a larger, more conveniently arranged, and better lighted building, upon a plot of ground large enough to not only furnish space for the projected structure, but also to provide for such enlargements of the Gallery as might be re- quired from time to time to suitably house future acquisitions of paintings, sculptures, etc. With these ends in view, steps were taken to find and secure a proper location, and on the 3d of April, 1891, the purchase of a portion of Square 171, fronting on Seventeenth and E Streets, respectively, on the east and south, and on New York Avenue on the north, was ordered, and subsequently purchased. On the 9th of January, 1892, it was determined to erect a new Gallery building on the eastern portion of the ground thus secured, and designs and plans for the proposed structure were invited from a number of prominent architects. Those submitted by Mr. Ernest Flagg, of New York, were deemed best, and, after some alterations, and modifications, they were accepted, and he was employed to carry them out, under the 10 The Present Gallery supervision of a special committee, created and empowered for that purpose, and contracts were authorized and entered into accordingly, as follows: On June 26, 1893, the ground for the foundation of the new building was broken. On October 9, 1893, the contract was made for the stone foundations. On January 31, 1894, the contract for the basement walls was let. On May 10, 1894, the corner stone was laid with appropriate ceremonies. On June 23, 1894, the contract for the erection of the building was accepted; and on January 8, 1897, the keys of the building were delivered to the Trustees and the work of transferring the works of art from the old to the new building was com- menced. On the evening of the 22d of February, of the same year, the new building was first formally opened, for a a private view, to which more than three thousand invitations were issued. The invitations were largely accepted, and, not- withstanding the inclement weather of the evening, the several rooms were at times filled to their utmost capacity. The attend- ance included the President of the United States and Mrs. Cleve- land; the members of his Cabinet and their wives; Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers, and members of their respective legations; Senators and Representatives in Congress; the Judi- ciary; Artists and Connoisseurs of the Arts; officers of the Army and Navy, and hundreds of other ladies and gentlemen prominent in private and public life. The whole building was brilliantly illuminated by over three thousand electric lights, presenting a scene of rare beauty; and music by the Marine Band, which was present by courtesy of the Secretary of the Navy, added to the charm of the occasion. The Present Gallery 11 The Reception Committee consisted of the members of the Board of Trustees, as then constituted, as follows: Edward Clark, Samuel H. Kauffmann, Frederick B. McGuire, Walter S. Cox, Charles C. Glover, Calderon Carlisle, Matthew W. Galt, William Corcoran Eustis, Thomas Hyde. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDING T HE building stands with its main front on Seventeenth Street, extending from New York Avenue on the north to E Street on the south, a distance of 259 feet, extending back 133 feet, and occupies about half of the lot. The style of architecture is Neo-Grecian, the material being white Georgia marble, on a basement of Mil ford pink granite. The first story is pierced by windows; the second story rises in a solid white wall broken only by a row of open-work marble panels along the upper edge, which serve as ventilators to the Galleries. Between these panels and the cornice, which is rich in orna- ~~^ '~'' mental carving, extends a narrow frieze bearing in Roman letters the names of some of the most famous painters and sculptors of ancient and modern times. The roof of glass slants sharply upward to the ridge, which is finished by a cresting of bronze, terminating at each end of the building in a winged grifiin. The severity of the elevation is broken by the curve at the north end, in which is located the Art School. It also contains a semi-circular auditorium on the first or main floor, used for lectures, etc., and on the floor above, a gallery for various special or temporary exhibitions, which connects with the main picture galleries on the second floor. 16 Description of the Building The main entrance to the building is on Seventeenth Street. On either side of the steps, upon white marble pedestals, rests a colossal bronze lion, cast from moulds made over the famous lions by Canova, which guard the tomb of Clement XIII, in St. Peter's, Rome. Passing through this entrance, a broad and easy flight of stairs leads directly to the main corridor or atrium. This is the largest hall in the building, being 170 feet long and 50 feet wide, running north and south of the main entrance on the first floor. Its light comes through openings or light-wells in the ceiling above, which is supported by forty fluted monolith columns of Indiana limestone. This spacious hall is devoted to the exhibition of casts from sculptures of the antique and Renaissance periods. The rooms surrounding it — except those required for the library, administration purposes, etc. — are also given up to original marbles, casts, bronzes, etc., including the large and valuable collection of the works of the late Antoine Louis Barye, the eminent French sculptor of animals. Directly in front, upon entering, and upon the further or western side of the hall or atrium, rises the grand white marble staircase, fifteen feet in width, and of easy tread, which leads to the second-story atrium, of the same dimensions as the one below. This has an immense skylight supported by thirty-eight fluted monolith columns, also of Indiana limestone. Ten large doorways, with sliding doors, lead from the atrium to the galleries for paintings — four fine large rooms on Seven- teenth Street, two small and one large one on E Street, and two still larger on the west, on either side of the main staircase, all admirably adapted for their purpose and perfectly lighted, whether for day or night exhibitions. The entrance on the north or New York Avenue side of the building leads to the auditorium, a spacious room, of beautiful proportions, and also to several of the rooms set apart for the School of Art. Description of the Building 17 The dimensions of all the rooms and galleries are given on the accompanying floor plans. The Gallery is open to the public as follows: On Sundays J from November 1st to July 1st, from 1.30 to 4.30 P.M.

Alfred Robaut owned the sketch for this picture, and also another one in which the composition was changed from "St. Jerome" to "The Wood-Gatherers." Corot made several sketches for this picture and, in the last transformation of the motive, he changed the principal figure and added other figures. The studies show the transition to an enlargement of the final painting. The painting was destined to become the property of a Mr. Breysse. Corot signed it in his bed 'a few days before his death. It was exhibited at the Salon in 1875 (No. 519 of the catalogue), and was sold at the Faure sale April 29, 1878. It appeared at The Cor- coran Gallery of Art in 1886.

Many of the nobility were slain. On his recovery he leisurely sought his father, at Stuttgart, and found him over his solitary meal. He was coldly received. Not a word was spoken. With downcast eyes he placed himself opposite his father. Fish and wine were served to him. The old count seized a knife, and cut the table-cloth between them. Frenzied by this insult, Ulrich rushed into the middle of the next fight, gained the battle of Dof- fingen, and was slain. — Ballad of Uhland. "And while we were celebrating the victory in our camp, what was the old count doing? Alone in his tent, weeping over the dead body of his only son."] — Ballad of Schiller. 90 Paintings 250 PORTRAIT OF COMMODORE CHARLES MORRIS Size: 26x22 Gift of the heirs of Mrs. Morris.
