Museum. The Museum consists of seven galleries, three of which contain oil and water-color paintings and engravings, two contain a large collection of casts of the masterpieces of classic and Renaissance sculpture, one contains a tine collection of autotypes illustrating the history of painting, and one is devoted to collections of japanese pottery, bronzes, examples of pottery, metal work and furniture. The Trustees hope that the collections will increase rapidly, and will be glad to receive donations of good work in any department of the Fine or Applied Arts. The collections are of recent growth, as it is only since the completion of the new building in 1897 that suitable rooms have been provided for their exhibition and protection. The galleries are open to the public, free of charge, on every after- noon of the year, with the exception of Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and the Fourth of July, from 1 to 5 on every weekday and 2 to 5 on Sundays. The galleries of the Museum are open to students during school hours, and are open frequently in the evening, in order that the day and evening classes may study the different collections on exhibition during the year. The number of visitors registered during the past year was 3o,943, in contrast with 27,116 of the year before, but this registered attendance does not include the students, or the members of the Corporation, who use the galleries in the morning and evening. In addition to the permanent collection in the Museum, ninety-one special loan exhibitions have been shown in the galleries since the School occupied the new building on Waterman Street. These exhibitions have given the people of Providence an opportunity to see representative collections of paintings by many American artists. Three large loan exhibitions of paintings by great French and Dutch artists have also been held. 10
