This Year's New Exhibits At The American Museum: America's first Museum of decorative art to be set up in this country, or anywhere else outside the United States, is starting its second season at Claverton manor near Bath. Its purpose is to correct the somewhat distorted image of American culture held by many Europeans. Besides demonstrating with examples of early American art that, although a comparatively young country, America is by no means devoid of a cultural background, it also gives an idea of the way Americans lived in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. Among the new exhibits on shows this year are a room given over the New Mexican Religious Art, a series of miniature American period rooms, and some new additions to the already extensive collection of Folk Art. Striking example of the religious arts of New Mexico. Christ with St. Anthony on His right and on his left Nusstre Senora de Soledod (Our Lady of Sorrows). The four posts were devised as a framework for the cloth skirt
