From Robert H. McCauley collection. The most important accession received in the division of graphic arts was a bequest of 243 Currier & Ives lithographs of sporting and western subjects from the Adele S. Colgate Estate. This gift greatly enhances the standing of the Museum's collection of Currier & Ives prints. The important gift of Mr. Erich Colin of 20 drawings and etchmgs by the German expressionist artists, Paul Kleinschmidt and Meidner, records a part of what was probably the strongest group contribution to printmaking in this century. The Society of Washington Printniakers donated, through its President, Mr. Prentiss Taylor, the intaglio print, Imi/f/r /II, by Lois Fine; the woodcut TJie Valley, by Isabella Walker; and the lithograph, A^ova Scotia, by Louis Lozowick. The section of pholograpliy acquired a number of historically note- worthy specimens of photographs and equipment. Lucien G. Bull of Paris presented a large group of material related to the early history.
