Dr. George P. Merrill of the Smithsonian Institution, and that of John Dewey, done for Mrs. Calvin Coolidge. Mr. White’s work is performed entirely by cutting with a delicate pair of scissors, | which enables him to bring the profile | of his subjects into relief against a | white background. Origin Ancient Egypt. ‘The art of silhouettes found its origin in the days of ancient Egypt, when all | portraits were done in silhouettes. In | the time of the Romans candlelight pictures were drawn from the reflection of profiles outlined against a wall, and this art is believed to have come from ' the early Etruscans. The interest in silhouettes declined to some extent dur- | ing the Middle Ages. but was revived at the time of the French revolution, by a Gen. Silhouette, from whom the art derives its name. There was a steady growth of popularity for silhouettes which cul- | minated in_the first_exhibition of the subject in Paris in 1825. Many of the early pleces of work in the nineteenth | century were done on china or glass. Cement Makers Meet.
