ART TEXTILES. 



The collection of art textiles and other art objects started in the 

 spring of 1908 by Mrs. James W. Pinchot, assisted by other ladies of 

 Washington, was very materially increased during the year both by 

 loans and by gifts, two of the latter being especially noteworthy. 

 The importance of tliis movement, which it is designed shall lead to 

 the formation of a worthy permanent collection, can not be over- 

 estimated, and it is gratifying to note that the interest on the part 

 of contributors has continued unabated. That the subject is an 

 appropriate one to encourage is demonstrated by the attention it 

 receives in the important art museums of the world, and that it is 

 appreciated by the public is shown by the number o'f visitors at- 

 tracted to the hall in which the specimens are displayed. While 

 appealing to the esthetic sense through beauty and delicacy of de- 

 sign, it is from a utilitarian point of view that the matter is mainly 

 being considered by the Museum. By stimulating and furnishing 

 motives for the higher grades of handiwork, several lines of indus- 

 trial activities long fostered in European countries and for which a 

 promising field exists in the United States can be very materially 

 aided. For tliis purpose a large collection is required, contaming 

 as many and as varied examples as can be brought together, and it 

 is hoped, therefore, that the efforts of the ladies, on whom the bur- 

 den of the work has so far fallen, will be properly sustained. 



With the transfer of the paintings to the new building and the 

 removal of the western and middle screens, it became possible to
