NEW YORK, June 26.—The fa
mous art collection of the late M.
Chabrieres-Arles of Paris and Lyons
was now the property of Duveen
Brothers, who have brought it to
New York and will display it in their
galleries here.
']^ie collection comprises about
250 pieces, and has a value approx
imating $1,500,000.
"Exercising the refined knowledge
and taste of a true connoisseur,”
Mr. Duveen said, “this well-known
collector of Lyons, who died a few
years ago, gathered a unique assem
blage of important French and Ital
ian Renaissance works of the six
teenth century.
M. Chabrieres-Arles took the
i
greatest pride in his art possessions,
and always welcomed visits of ama
teurs and artists to what was a ver"
itable museum of these rare and
choice objects of art, so that his col
lection became celebrated.”
Many famous French artists fig
ured in the production of the arti
cles comprised in the collection. The
Meuble sand wood carvings of the
sixteenth century were embellished
with bas-reliefs, displaying all the
purity of design of the fine period
of the Renaissance.
It is in these meubles that the
collection is especially rich. They
are after designs by such celebrated
artists as Gaujon and Ducerceau.
A feature of the Chabrieres-Arles
collection is a number of tables,
mostly in walnut of fawn-colored pa
tine, one of which, exhibit at the
Petit Palais, has carving of admira
ble workmanship.
The sculpture of walnut tables
was one of the triumphs of the Bur
gundian school. Three of them in
particular are regarded as the finest
specimens existing of tables execut

Of equal importance are some
cabinets and cassones, with the
fawn-colored and red patins so char
acteristic of the period; some so
browned by time as to resemble
bronze. All are monuments of ex
quisite carving in various detail.
The collection includes a few pio
tures of the fifteenth and sixteenth
centuries; also arms in which there
are some beautifully engraved
swords. In addition there are in
teresting clocks and watches, some
bronzes and a small series of Italian
faience of the sixteenth century,
with some Hispanao-Mauresque
dishes. Among the smaller objects
are ecclesiastical gold work, reli-^
quaries, ivories, medals and brass
work.
Mr. Dueen said negotiations for
sale of the collection had covered a
rather prolonged period, owing to
the circumstance that five of the
seven Chabrieres-Arles heirs we.re in
the trenches on the battle front.
