Fogg Will Commemorate Leonardo

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

On May 2, the Fogg Art Museum will hold a celebration in honor of the four hundredth anniversary of the death of Leonardo da Vinci. As the Museum has a large collection of Italian works of art of the period, no new additions will be made.

The entertainment will consist of several Italian musical numbers characteristic of the time rendered by Dr. A. T. Davison '06 and the University Choir. Dr. George Sarton who has been employed by the Carnegie Foundation to investigate the scientific work of Leonardo, will speak on the subject: "Leonardo as the Scientist." Professor G. H. Edgell '09 will also talk on the artistic attainments of da Vinci.

The French Loan Exhibition which is now open at the Museum will continue for two weeks. It is open to all members of the University and the general public.
