THE NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART 81 



THE MARCH OF TIME. By Henry Sandham. Oil on canvas. 144 by 

 252 inches. Signed. 



Presented to the Institution by the artist, November 22, 

 1902. This picture was exhibited in the National Museum 

 during several years prior to its presentation. According to 

 the artist, the subject was suggested by the reunion of the 

 Grand Army of the Republic in Boston in 1889. It represents 

 a parade of veterans containing the portraits of many soldiers 

 who were conspicuous in the civil war, from the grade of private 

 to the rank of lieutenant-general. On the right is a group of 

 women, also including portraits of several who rendered dis- 

 tinguished services in the same connection. 



Painting representing a scene from the story of the GENTLEMAN OF 

 FRANCE. By Antoine Etex. Oil on wood. 6 by 11 inches. 



This little picture, presented to the Museum by Mr. Nathan 

 Appleton, December 12, 1903, is signed Etex. A slight abra- 

 sion of the paint before the name seems to have removed 

 an initial. Mr. Appleton states that the painting was by 

 Antoine, who was bom in Paris in 1808 and died in 1888. He 

 was a sculptor, painter, architect, engraver, and writer on art 

 subjects, but worked chiefly as a sculptor.
