Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of an Exhibition of Paintings and Sculpture From the Luxembourg Museum, Paris, of Objects of Decorative Art From the Mobilier National, the Gobelins and the Sèvres Manufactories, of Paintings, Sculpture, and Prints: By Contributing French and Belgian Artists; Forming the Art Collection Exhibited by the French Government at the Panama-Pacific Exposition, 1915; February 5 to March 18, 1918 Visitors to San Francisco will remember that there was a col lection of the sculptures and paintings of Belgian artists exhibited in a gallery fitted up for the purpose in the French Pavilion. As a mark of sympathy for her grievously stricken ally and neighbor, France assumed the entire care of the Belgian collection and that too is included in the present exhibition. It is a situation full of patriotic significance that the United States lends to her allies France and Belgium the aid of her men and material resource and in return receives from them the rare advantage of studying at first hand under government auspices their cherished works of art which are the most impressive manifestation of European culture.
