to honor the memory of a good man and a dear friend4 ,in the tenderness1 sincerity1 and simplicity of his work are to be found the elements which were most conspicuous in the personality of the late ,m4 ,a4 ,woolf1 together with unostentatious charity and a humor1 unique in contemporary art1 which1 while always manly and honest1 possessed the power to move as well to tears as to laughter4 ,the following selections were made from among the most characteristic of ,mr4 ,woolf's contributions to ,life and ,judge1 and a number of hitherto unpublished drawings4 ,to all who by kindly suggestion and personal effort have assisted me in this compilation1 ,i extend the assurance of my deep thanks and appreciation4 ,,joseph ,,henius4 ,,brooklyn1 ,october1 #ahii4 ,,biographical ,,note ,michael ,angelo ,woolf was born in ,london1 ,england1 ,august #bg1 #ahcg4 ,his father was ,edward ,woolf1 a musician of eminence1 and a man of versatile talent in both art and literature4 ,michael ,woolf was brought to ,america in his infancy2 his talent manifested itself early1 and he contributed as a young man to many prominent periodicals4 ,for a number of years he turned aside from draughtsmanship to pursue an actor's career1 and two charming autobiographical reminiscences of this period of his life appeared in the ,saturday ,evening ,post1 of ,philadelphia1 shortly after his death4 ,at the close of the ,civil ,war1 ,mr4 ,woolf resumed his original profession1 but turning his attention more to painting1 was hampered by the remissness of his early training1 and sought regular art instruction1 for the first time in his life1 at the hands of ,edouard ,frre in ,france4 ,upon his return to ,america he exhibited a much admired painting1 8,how ,it ,happened10 at the ,national ,academy of ,design4 ,in his later years he turned his endeavors almost entirely to the delineation of child life among the poorer classes2 and his drawings1 with their peculiar combination of humor and pathos1 have become widely known here and abroad4 ,mr4 ,woolf died suddenly of heart disease at the home of his sister in ,brooklyn1 ,n4 ,y41 ,march #d1 #ahii4 ,illustration3 ,,hard ,,hit4 ,miranda 7oh1 so
