JANUARY 14. 1909. ‘GAMBLERS IN ART’ SIR HUBERT CALLS AMERICANS ATTACKS COLLECTORS OF PAINT INGS FOR BIDDING RECORD PRICES—A MATTER OF SPECU LATON..NOT LOVE OF ART. LONDON. Jau 13 silr Hubert \on Herkimer, a member of the Ko).»i (aeademy. has stirred the English art world by a vigorous attack upon col lectors for paying huge prices fui die canvases of old ttiasteis while the works of living artists are neglect rtd Sir Hubert was born tu Bavaria. Where he learned to paint He abuses American millionaires for establishing recotd prices In European auctlou rooms lor old masters. He calls this bidding gambling in the old masters h la," he says contemptuously, the prid* of price tuther than the desire for bargain that stirs Hie ambition for the possession of the old Piasters. U is a dud of two or mor> rich men. de siring to secure something which will them notoriety. Antiquarian value is not art value. ' Sir Hubert mentions Millet's "An gelus. ' which the artist .»old for l-’Oh. the canvas subsequently fetching and asserts th-.r is art value was ih» same when noil for S2OO as when an American pa: 1 sllo,ofor .t. "It is monstrous," Sir Hubert ex claims. "that art should be utilised for the purpose of speculation. 1 his gambling has become a disease " Sir Hubert suggests that such gam bling might be restrained by the im position of a tax based on a sliding scale of sale values which the heirs of the painter should receive. As Sir Hubert himself receives enormous prices for his paintings from American uud other collectors, the art world is unable to see why Sir Hubert com 'plains of competition with the old mas ters. Sir Philip Burne Jonts, whose fa thtr attained au eminence as a paint er whhh his son has not jot rivalled, >agrce* with Sir Hubert that living art ists auffe.* in competition with the .)ld masters. Sir Philip says: 'The Am ericans who fight for masterpieces in auctions are not always actuated by the love of art for art's sake. Some wealthy Americans buy famous pic tures for show, just as their wives In Newport strive to outstrip their neigh bors by the magnificence of their cot tages and their display of dress and Jewelry.” Meanwhile American collectors will continue to strip Europe of its mas terpieces, merely because Americans, having a great love of art, are willing to pay more than Englishman for art treasures.
