NASHVILLE BUILDS
T
NEW PAR
HNON
5 NASHVILLE Tenn. Sept. 25.
f tWlthln fv year the United States will
have the only cxact-totha-lnch repro-
duction of the Athenian Parthenbn
fthe o-called Parthenon at Regens
iburg being merely an adptation of the
(great temple. That masterpleco at
' Athens conceived and built by Phid-
ias the sculptor Icttnus the archi-
tect and Pericles the statesman Is
being reconstructed here In a more en
. during form than was the original.
When Tennessee's centennial waa
celebrated by nn International Expo-
sltlon twenty-four years ago tho di-
rectors ot the fete built In temporary
form a replica of the Parthenon. It
was used to house the art exhibit of
ithat exposition.
' Nashville people considered It. a
'partial gratification of'thelr ambition
to make their city as the "Athena ot
the South."
Thin temporary structure erected
hastily and with o- comparatively small
nmount of money letl much to be do-
(lrcd In the execution otitho delicate
ornamentation and .the great number
of statues which had to be reconstruct
ed from the Inadequate drawings then
In existence. Yet tho general effect
of the cream-colored staff structure
with brilliant colors In the frieze and
) gables so overshadowed all tho other
.buildings that when tho exposition
twas ovec tho people demanded Its pre-
servation and It became a shrine to
the. residents and visitors ot Nashville.
Threo years ago disintegration hnd
progressed to mih nn extent that the
'building had to be closed.
' It waq finally decided to erect a
nermanent replica of tho Athenian
temple using the method known as
the "Mosaic Surface" concrete ae-
veloned by John Early of Washington
.D.C.who was Intrusted with that part
of the worK.
There still remained the question of
the red background of the metopes
'and gables' the blue of the triglyps as
J agreed upon by tho majority of au-
thorities on Greek architecture. To
merely apply pigments to tho surfaqo
of theso cement casta would have in-
volved the same periodical expense
of" renewing tho colors-as 'it would
have on marble wnipn it naa been ae
olded not to use.
About that'tlme George Julian Zol
.may. aculDtor.' waa making oxperl
'menta in tho production of a durablo
material other than the costly stone
.and bronze realizing that not until
ithe sculptor'a work can be successfully
reproduced In less expensive yet aur-
'able materials will sculpture become
'a truly democratic art.
TTn KAriirAri n. nvnttintic ntnne. Which
Jinot only '"puored" but could be made
-of any color. Zolnay Was commission
ed by the Nashville Park Board to re-
construct that figure of the great tem-
ple and then tp reproduce them in
this artificial stone.
1 Whether the. original Parthenon
had an open roof or whether there waa
aomo structural arrangoment with
aide lights masked by the cornice has
never been determined. Tho Nashville
Parthenon will havo a flat sky-light
following the slope of the roof and so
arranged aa to obtain the best possi-
ble light within where an art museum
will be located eventually.
Probably the exterior of the build-
ing will be completed by the autumn
of 1922.
Erected In Centennial Park the Par-
thenon of the New World will afford
' to Americans an opportunity of view
Jng In exact replica at ono place what
-would require months ot travel to find
in the museums and elsewhere in Eu-
. rope.
