Description	When Edward Gardner Lewis convinced Taxile Doat to come from France to University City to head up the ceramics division of the Art Academy, he also convinced Doat to sell his personal ceramics collection to the school to be put on display and to serve as inspiration to the students. In this photograph, the collection which had been shipped from France has just arrived in University City on January 12, 1910, a very rainy day. The horse drawn van is on Delmar Boulevard next to the Woman's Magazine Building, preparing to turn onto Oberlin (now Harvard) to go to the Art Academy Building. This photograph appeared in "The Woman's National Daily" on January 15, 1910
