New Collection at Germanic Museum.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The collection of reproductions of work by German goldsmiths and silver-smiths recently received at the Germanic Museum will be placed on exhibition for the first time today. This collection, which includes about seventy galvano-plastic copies, is arranged in three cases; the first case containing works of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries; the second chiefly those of the seventeenth century, and the third those of the eighteenth century.

Included in the collection are copies of the Landschadenbund cup, from the Museum of Gratz; a cup presented to Martin Luther by the Wittenberg town council on the occasion of his marriage; and the Corvinus cup, presented to the Vienna Council by King Corvinus of Hungary in 1642. The collection comprises also reproductions of several of the finest pieces in the private collection of Emperor William.
