LIFE'S COVER: The $3,000,000 JEFFERSON MEMORIAL, which is ready for dedication this week, is here seen across the Washington Tidal Basin, framed by the Japanese cherry trees. Authorized by Congress in 1934, the memorial was designed by John Russell Pope, Otto Eggers and Daniel P. Higgins. Mr. Pope died a year before ground was broken in 1938. For more on Thomas Jefferson see pages 62-75.
Speaking of Pictures...these are the last taken of Rachmaninoff before his death. [Taken just a few weeks before his death, they are magnificent! FULL PAGE of that marvelous face, other photos of his hands, of him in concert! -- SEE BELOW!]
LIFE'S PICTURES:
Eric Schaal, who took the pictures of Sergei Rachmaninoff on pages 4-7, not only
had to wait three years for his appointment, but was forced to hurry when the
camera-shy Russian pianist finally received him in his apartment shortly before
his death. Noticing that Rachmaninoff
glanced restlessly every few minutes at
an electric clock on his bookcase, Schaal
managed to blow out a fuse in hitching up
his floodlights. The clock stopped. Rachmaninoff relaxed. Schaal finished his job.
PHOTOGRAPHIC ESSAY: THOMAS JEFFERSON, 1743-1943. He lived at Monticello. Virginia was his "Country". He loved the American land. Jefferson was an Architect. He was fond of gadgets. His faith was in the living.
