It was easy to trace and re- purchase some of the original Carminati furnishings, and these were put back in their old places, The empty spaces were filled by discriminating addi- tions in keeping with the spirit and atmosphere of the original things. When it was done the owner had created something that was actually a museum of Eighteenth Century Venice. Nobody lived there ‘Two marble dogs guarded the entrance. An old custodian “came from echoing passages to unbolt the great doors. Yet the whole place gave the impression of real and human inhabitants who had just pushed back their chairs from the table or who had Just laid down a book, closed the spinet in ths music room and gone for a giro in a gondola, The palace became a hobby with its owner. Once or twice a week he visited there, wander- ing through the salons, sat for hours in the halls and gave him- self up to the illusion of being transported backward two cen- turies in time. The art critics, writers and antiquarians who visited Venice were occasion- ally taken by him to see the palace as a great treat, but the public generally knew nothing of what was behind its walla, A chance question opened the doors of the Car- minati Palace to the Wana- maker Collector of Antiques this last summer; and finally led to the purchase of practically the entire contents of the palace for the Wanamaker Store. “What a loss to Venice!” ex- claimed a well-known New York collector when he heard of the purchase, “This was a really valuable museum.” The exhibition and sale of the contents of the Carminati Pal- ace with about 2,000 pieces of furniture and bibelots opens tomorrow on the Floor of An- tiques in the Wanamaker Store. Perhaps the most interesting part of the collection is the painted Eighteenth Cen- tury Venetian furniture which numbers one hundred and sixty- five pieces. So far as any one knows, this is the largest and most representative collection of its kind that can be seen any- where today. Walnut furniture of the Eighteenth Century also takes a prominent place in the collec- tion and a few fine pieces of the Seventeenth Century are also to be found. The Prints in themselves form an interest- ing group, representing the work of the teenth Century Venetian masters, such ‘as Longhi, Guardi and Canaletto, Prices are so low that these treasures of the past actually cost less than furniture made to- day, yet in them lie the person- ality, the atmosphere, the beau- ty and breeding, the intangible something that is acquired only by living with generations of gentlefolk. Concerning the purchase of the Carminati collection by the Wanamaker collector, one of those in Italy who was much inte: in the fate of the treasures of the old Palace wrote the following, after the Palazzo had been denuded and its contents had started on their long journey by land and sea: December 1, 1920 #. The Wanamaker Train of twelve sitteen-ton cara has left Venice for Genoa, “The old Palazzo is stripped. The three-hundred big packing- cases nedriy filled the entrance hall, which is as big as a modern ship's hull, Even the high-backed benches, those with the arma painted on tiem, built into the entrance walls are gone. Have you skilled workmen who can set them up in the new Republic, these benches that were in use in Venice before the old Vene- tian Republic came to an end? It's enough to make the lion of “St. Mark shake his head, But he must bravely face facts; Venice was built up by com- merce and must live by com- merce. Fancy twelve tg cara packed with orginal antiques, not imilattons, not modern copies made to sell, but time- worn originals which were used and treasured and lived with in the 17th century and 18th cen- tury. “——The Carminati collee- tion — gone. The enchanted Palace that look ome out of the present straight into the past Surely it was atill lived in by ils 17th” century owners, e must merely have been out of town for the season bul returning next ‘week, and everything was ready and waiting for Us re- LUTM.evsveee , “vades many To Au Quatrieme, the Floor of Antiques, much of the spirit of Eighteenth Century Venice bas been transported. Many of the whimsical and charming things of the period have been reconstructed for our Twentieth Century eyes, The Theatre Room with its three marionette theatres and its troupe of some one - hundred - and - thirty-seven marionettes and burattini, masked harlequins, columbines, ladies of the court, quaint ani- mals, wonderful in their sugges- tion of the gaiety and charm of the period. A Little Powder Room in stucco is reproduced from a tiny gem of a room in the Pal- azzo, where the haér of powdered and brocaded ladies received its final dusting of scented powder before they entered the great Salons under the sparkle of wax candles, The Room of Ships The Bridge between the Old and New Buildings has been transformed into this glamorous room with its walls lined with the old Eighteenth Century Re- gatta pictures, ship models, and maps and globes, vivid with the romance of old seafaring Venice, The Room of the Harp is hung with five important landscapes by Zais. In other rooms will be hung the portraits of I \ghis-Pietro and Alessan- dro, and the glass paintings of Canaletto and Guardi, and the prints that form so interesting a part of the collection, Even the old Kitchen of the Palazzo has been repro- duced, with its square flat stove and great hood. In this room is hung the old “market” painting from the Palazzo, and there, too, stands the old wooden flour bin and the painted dressers, A Room of the Masks is enchanting. Here are dis- played the gay little masked fi ures and the paintings of m: typical of Eighteenth Century Venice. Other objects, the furniture and bibelots, are scattered all over the Floor of Antiques, so that the luxury and beauty of the old Palazzo Carminati per- rooms, and the charm and glamor of a lost chapter of the Kighteenth Cen- tury romance is revived. Illustrated catalogs, with lists and prices. from each group in the entire collection, will be sent on request or may be bought Au Quatrieme for $2 each, Catalogs without illustrations may be had on request, Fourth floor, Old Building Large Venetian Louis XV.
