9 teenth century, a particularly important romantic landscape, Horace Vernet's dans les Marais Pontins of 1833, was obtained at auction in Paris. Painted when the artist was the director of the French Academy in Rome, Vernet's dark and and moody landscape has a particu- lar resonance for the Gallery's collection, which is so strong in the impressionist and post-impressionist landscapes pro- duced at the end of the nineteenth cen- tury and the start of the twentieth. Three remarkable works from our cen- tury came to the Gallery by bequest from Rita Schreiber in memory of her hus- band, Taft Schreiber. Picasso's great syn- thetic cubist painting of 1924, Harlequin Musician, is the latest addition to a core group of works that document Picasso's allegiance to traditional subject matter while evolving innovative styles. Also in- cluded in the bequest was Matisse's 1940 Woman Seated in an Armchair, painted in Nice, and Brancusi's Bird in Space, a 1927 polished bronze cast that reveals, as it soars to its height of more than six feet, the artist's sensitive and loving ex- ploitation of the immaculate surface of re- flective bronze. Other major donations included five early paintings by Barnett Newman do- nated by his widow, Annalee Newman. Already rich in late works by Newman because of Robert E. and Jane B. Mey- erhoff s 1987 gift of the series of fifteen paintings, The Stations of the Cross— Lema Sahachthani and Be II, the Gallery is profoundly grateful to Mrs. Newman for parting with these works from her per- sonal collection.

11 The East Building remains the repository for European works on paper. Through advance arrangements, these print study rooms afford unique and secure opportu- nities for the relaxed and intimate con- templation of works of art on paper, and more than 1,000 visitors availed them- selves of this service during the year. A complete list of acquisitions is pub- lished in the section on pages 19-24 of this publication. It is worth recalling that all works of art that come to the National Gallery do so as a result of private gener- osity, and not from governmental appro- priations, as is the case with many na- tional institutions abroad. Since the Gallery's opening in 1941, the govern- ment has underwritten the maintenance of the physical plant and has funded the majority of its programs and all but a few of its staff. The entire staff is listed by function for the first time this year at the end of this publication. Perhaps the most visible indication of the public-private partnership at the Gal- lery is the loan exhibition program, where sixteen of the twenty-one exhibitions in 1989 received corporate or foundation support. These demanding projects, a long-standing tradition at the National Gallery, are valuable for a variety of rea- sons. They permit this institution to ex- hibit a far greater range of art than it will ever own. The special context and tempo- rary status of a loan exhibition go hand- in-hand at the Gallery with new scholar- ship and a commitment to publishing the latest art historical information. The flexi- bility of the special exhibition program allows the Gallery to mount shows that parallel and amplify the permanent collection and to exhibit works of art from fields in which it would never collect. From the latter category, the highlight of the exhibition year was without a doubt Japan: The Shaping of Daimyo Culture 1185-1868, a show that focused on the art of the daimyo, the feudal lords who ruled Japan for nearly 700 years. The largest exhibition of its kind ever pre- sented in the West or Japan, the show brought together more than 450 Japanese-owned works of art. These were selected for their expression of the aes- thetic ideals and social character of the A Japanese garden in the East Building's north gar- den court (left), displays of armor (above), and a performance of No theater (below) for Japan: The Shaping of Daimyo Culture ',•••• •— W-'MM - *

Although this is my twentieth annual re- port as director of the National Gallery, the activities it touches on cannot begin to encompass the satisfactions that come with the inherent variety of this position. Not only is one in contact with extraordi- nary works of art from a great diversity of cultures, but with people one encounters in growing numbers—donors, supporters, lenders, colleagues, visitors, and mem- bers of a superb staff.

It is the ongoing generosity Director and loyalty to and widespread affection for this institution that makes working here such a privilege. Particularly notable in the philanthropic year was the an- nouncement of the hauntingly beautiful Van Gogh Roses as a partial and eventual gift by Mrs. W. Averell Harriman in honor of the Gallery's fiftieth anniversary. The Gallery's various support groups continued to flourish, as described in the report of Gallery president, John R. Stevenson, and planning for the fiftieth occupied the attention of many on the Gallery's staff. One of the most significant events for the Gallery in fiscal year 1989 was the as- sumption of the duties of the deputy di- rector by Roger Mandle, formerly direc- tor of The Toledo Museum of Art. His energy, dedication, and freshness of vi- sion have been felt throughout the Gal-

The environmental consider- ations were among the most rigorous ever encountered due to the vast range of ob- jects and materials: paintings, poly- chrome wooden sculpture, armor, sad- dles, scrolls, sliding doors, lacquer work, ceramics, domestic textiles, No masks, musical instruments, robes, and tea utensils. Educational materials throughout the exhibition, in the form of chronologies, text labels, and rear-lit transparencies of tea house gardens and No theater perfor- mances, elucidated the individual objects and gave structure to the visitor's experience. The department's involvement with the No theater and tea house were limited to assisting the Japanese in production and coordination. These presentations were the work of skilled Japanese designers and, in the case of the tea house, master Japanese craftsmen.

Paintings were arranged chronologically in large galleries, with smaller rooms of drawings integrated in the sequence so that viewers could ob- serve the role played by drawing in Vero- nese's work. Dark background colors enhanced the jewel-like opulence of Veronese's color. Cezanne: The Early Years 1859-1872, installed in five of the West Building's main floor exhibition galleries, followed a historical presentation. Four intimate and one grand gallery were selected as appro- priate to the scale and sequence of the works and were painted in deep, satu- rated colors to set off the rich colors in the works of art. Drawings and water- colors were integrated with the paintings and massed in tiered hangings in the nineteenth-century manner. The integra- tion of paintings with works on paper ne- cessitated extraordinary control of light levels. Three graphics exhibitions were in- stalled in East Building ground floor gal- leries, in the basic configuration of four small and two large rooms. For Master Drawings from the National Gallery of Canada accent panels were mounted on the walls, creating bands of color within each room that provided a focus for the viewing of the drawings. Their colors gave richness and variety to the viewing experi- ence while complimenting the tonality of the inks in the drawings. Architectural al- terations were made for Mary Cassatt: The Color Prints, which had to accommo- date a greater density of objects as well as a mixture of paintings, drawings, and prints. One special feature of the exhibi- tion was a technical explanation of Cas- sart's working method for producing color prints, a complex process that entailed drawings, multiple copper plates, and proofs. For Italian Etchers of the Renais- sance and Baroque: Parmigianio to Gior- dano the colors of the galleries were changed from deep, cool greens and blues to warm, neutral Tuscan grays.

A local area network is planned to allow other in- stitutions to tap the resources of the Gal- lery's computerized Art Information System. Rene de la Rie was appointed head of the science department, coming to the Gallery from the Metropolitan Museum of Art where he was studying the deteriora- tion of varnishes.

PAINTING CONSERVATION

This year twenty-two major painting con- servation treatments were completed, and progress was made on several large projects. The technical investigation of Giovanni Bellini's and Titian's Feast of the Gods was completed and prepared for publication in Studies in the History of Art. A colloquy was organized in conjunc- tion with CASVA, and a half-hour film was planned, written, and shot on location in Venice, Ferrara, Mantua, and in the Gal- lery, under the direction of the Gallery's office of external affairs. Numerous lec- tures were given around the country and abroad on the painting's construction and materials, and an exhibition coinciding with the rehanging of the painting was planned for January 1990.

46 animal skin glue, while its red areas were painted using egg yolk as the medium. These findings concur with Cennino Cen- nini's recommendations in his fourteenth- century handbook, II Libro dell'Arte. Investigation has continued into the re- movability of aged synthetic surface coat- ings on paintings. To date, fifty-six paint- ings have been examined that contain acrylic coatings that become insoluble during accelerated aging experiments due to cross-linking reactions. Although all coatings could still be removed with sol- vents, some need fairly polar solvent mix- tures. A chapter on the pigment Prussian blue is in preparation for the third volume of Artists' Pigments: A Handbook of Their History and Characteristics. The wood analysis survey of American paintings on panel has continued. The department is building an exten- sive research program that will formulate new analytical methods, particularly for the organic components of art objects and conservation materials, develop stable conservation products, and study the deg- radation of materials and ways to inhibit this. A weatherometer is on order to assist with accelerated aging studies, as are in- struments such as an ion trap detector and a diode-array ultraviolet spectrome- ter needed to assess the extent of the deg- radation of materials.

LOANS AND EXHIBITIONS CONSERVATION

The department coordinated conservation efforts for fifteen exhibitions opening at the National Gallery in 1989, while assist- ing other museums with seven earlier shows and preparing for many more. Records are kept of the condition of each work of art on arrival and departure from the National Gallery. Occasionally, works are examined at the lending institution before shipment to the Gallery, to assess condition, design packing procedures, and ascertain the environmental require- ments for specific objects. Such exam- inations were done for Michelangelo: Draftsman/Architect, Japan: The Shaping

In addition to the shows for its formal circulating exhibition program, the de- partment organized two large-scale loans of Gallery objects: forty-five French nineteenth-century paintings to the Museo Correr, Venice, and Palazzo Reale, Milan, and fifty paintings of the same period, to be shown in Munich in early 1990. An exhibition of sixty American naive paint- ings was shown at the Ca'Pesaro, Venice, after closing in Bologna. The department also handles individual loans to tempo- rary exhibitions and extended loans to museums, government officials, and em- bassies. In all, during the year, it adminis- tered the loan of 370 objects to sixty-one temporary exhibitions at eighty-six institu- tions, and of 308 extended loans to fifty- nine sites. Of these, works in the National Lending Service comprised 236 loans to thirty-one temporary exhibitions at forty- two institutions and 304 of the extended loans. Two paintings were on temporary exchange loan. Loans of 170 works to the Gallery for display with the permanent collection were also processed by this department.

Gallery Architect

The architect's office oversaw several sig- nificant projects in 1989. I. M. Pei & Partners was retained to undertake a comprehensive study of the use of space in the East Building, focusing particularly on the need for art storage; offices for the education division; offices, bookshelves, and support areas surrounding the main reading room of the library; and a suit- able entrance in the East Building for large works of art moving into twentieth- century exhibition spaces. Work on the National Sculpture Garden began in ear- nest this year, with eight prominent archi- tectural and landscape architectural firms invited to make formal presentations to the Gallery. The architect's office is coor- dinating architectural aspects of the de- sign, with the deputy director and the ad- ministrator serving as project managers and a group of other Gallery representa- tives advising. Preparation is underway for replacing the outdated single-glazed skylights that cover most of the West Building roof area with a technologically advanced system. This effort is expected to continue for the coming four years.

The Circle of the National Gallery of Art is a membership program led by co- chairs Robert H. Smith and Katharine Graham and administered by the devel- opment office. In its third year the Circle welcomed fifty-one new members, joining Circle members from the Washington area and twenty-five states across the country. Funds raised through this pro- gram are used to sponsor special projects. This year the Circle made possible the ac- quisition of a Parmigianino drawing, Three Feminine Heads. Funds were pro- vided for the film covering the restoration of the Bellini and Titian painting The Feast of the Gods, for the production of a recording by the award-winning National Gallery Vocal Arts Ensemble, and for the Joseph V. Columbus Tapestry Sympo- sium. Thanks to the Circle, the Gallery's library was able to acquire an important resource on Roman art and architecture, Bartolomeo Martiani's Urbis Romae Topo- graphia (1544). The library also received funds to acquire a large group of works that form a core collection of scientific books and journals on conservation. We look forward to the continuing support of the private sector in the coming year as we approach the Gallery's fiftieth anniversary.

Other programs with this important anniversary in mind include the research and writing of a book, The Corporate Pa- tron, which will pay tribute to the many innovative national and international cor- porations that have provided support at the National Gallery. The publication is made possible by a grant from Fortune magazine. A further three-year challenge initiated in fiscal year 1989 focuses on the forth- coming celebration of the 500th anniver- sary of Columbus' first voyage to Amer- ica, Circa 1492. This exhibition will be held in 1991-1992 only at the National Gallery and will present an image of the world of Columbus' lifetime, seen through the medium of great works of art. The corporate relations office is seeking to identify the leading representative of four industries concerned with the theme of "globalism" so vividly explored in the exhibition. Ameritech and Republic Na- tional Bank have joined the National Gallery as the first members of the projected consortium.

Press and Public Information

The public information office continued to serve as a liaison between the National Gallery and a growing number of media contacts, which in 1989 represented more than 2,000 daily and weekly news- papers, over 100 magazines, and numer- ous radio and television outlets world- wide. In the 1989 fiscal year The New York Times alone ran more than thirty ma- jor articles about the Gallery. Highlights of the information office ac- tivities this year included generating tre- mendous press response for Michel- angelo: Draftsman/Architect and Japan: The Shaping of Daimyo Culture. The sur- prise announcement at the press confer- ence opening the Michelangelo show of a newly discovered drawing of Cleopatra on the back of a famous work from the Casa Buonarroti, Florence, was reported on From the Veronese exhibition, Paolo Veronese's Holy Family with Saints Catherine and Anthony Abbot, the front page of The New York Times and 1551, San Francesco della Vigna, Venice widely around the world.

OPERATING INCOME FROM ENDOW- MENT FUND—A 1942 trust indenture es- tablished a National Gallery Endowment Fund for the purpose of providing income to support certain nongovernment expen- ditures of the Gallery. Subsequent to the original endowment, other funds have been established to support the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts, con- servation of art works, fellowships, and various other operating purposes in addi- tion to the purchases of works of art. In order to minimize the inflationary erosion of the endowment funds for operations, it is the policy of the board of trustees to limit the amount of dividends and interest available for expenditures in any year and to return unused income to the prin- Edgar Degas, Horse Walking, modeled c. 1860/ cipal of those endowments.
