BENJAMIN W EST

1738-1820

Foreword

F

or

two generations Swarth-

more College and the Borough o f Swarthmore have looked back
on the memory o f the fir st great Am erican artist, Benjam in
W est, President o f the R oyal Academ y, who was bom in W est
H ouse, s till standing on the cam pus, with the hope o f establishing
a W est M em orial and an art museum. In 1922 an exhibition o f
W est’s work was held in Parrish H all. From this exhibition
generous alum ni purchased fo r the College a splendid collection
o f drawings. A t Commencement, 1930, the Class o f 1903 pre
sented a fin e group o f pictures by modern French artists. On
Founders D ay, 19 3 1, the Benjam in W est Society was form ally
inaugurated with an address by R oyal Cortissoz on the “ Genius
o f Am erican P ain tin g.”
The purpose o f the Society is to encourage interest in the
fin e arts at Swarthmore College; to acquire works o f art, to bring
loan exhibitions to the College, and to provide lectures on art.
F or its marked success it is deeply indebted to Frederic N ew lin
P rice, George Grey Barnard, A lbert Rosenthal, and to many
others whose names are recorded in this catalogue.

BARNARD, GEORGE GREY
More than two hundred original plaster studies described in the sculptor’ s letter of gift
as follows:
700 Ft. Washington Avenue
New York City
July IS, 1931
Mr. Frank Aydelotte, President
Swarthmore College
Swarthmore, Pa.
Dear Sir:
My ancestors on the George Grey Grubb side were Philadelphia
Quakers, and from my mother I inherited whatever talent I have in
art. This doubles my interest in Swarthmore College, and I shall be
proud to have a record of my life work housed and held as a possible
educational value to future students as well as the citizens of my native
state of Pennsylvania.
The gift contains all of the statues for the Pennsylvania Capitol
groups, from the very first thumb sketches to the thirty, nine-foot
statues. It also contains my complete studies for a monument to
Columbus never made known to the public—all the original studies of
“ Adam and Eve,” “ Rising Woman” and the “ Hewer” kindly given by
Mr. Rockefeller—as well as the original studies for the “ Urn of Life”
now in Carnegie Museum, and other casts.
I hope they may prove stepping stones that will lead to an in
visible bridge across the universe, to your future students.
Sincerely yours,
George Grey Barnard
