Course Number
PAINTINGS NOW ON DISPLAY
IN GALLERY OF ALUMNI HALL
Leon Bakst, artist, illustrator, and
said to be the world's greatest au-
thority on costume and dress, will die-
liver an illustrated lecture at 8 o'clock
tomorrow night in Hill auditorium
Mr. Bakst will talk on "Costumes and
Personalities", and will attempt, it
is said, to draw some conclusions as
to the inter-relation of the two.
Due to Mr. Bakst's strong French
accent, and the realization that this
might hinder the effectiveness of the
lecture, the Oratorical association
which is- sponsoring Mr. Bakst's ap-
pearance, has arranged with Prof
Rene Talamon of the French depart-
'ent to interpret the talk. This will
not be Professor Talamon's first ex-,
perience as interpreter, for during the
war he was employed a great deal in
this work by the French government
and later he acted as official Interpre-
ter for the conference for the limita-
tion of armaments held in Washin-
ton.
The lecturer Is noted not only for his
work as a designer of costumes, forG
he has achieved distinction both as a
painter of portraits and as designer
of stage settings. In this last capacity
he has done work for the Ballet Russe
and for the' Operas of Gabriel DAn-
nunzio, one of which is to be present-
ed in the United States thls .season
A number of his paintings are now on
exhibition in the West gallery of Alum-
niohall.
