...been trailing Gina Lollobrigida for months. Suggested suitors have ranged from Matador El Cordobés to Heart Surgeon Christiaan Barnard. But this one is for real, says the Italian beauty. The fortunate fellow is George S. Kaufman, a wealthy Manhattan real estate executive who met Gina in New York two months ago. No kin to the late playwright, he likes to toss off lines like "My first and greatest present to Gina is my love." In Rome, where they announced plans to marry, the pair was mobbed by the press. Photographers followed them everywhere-even on the plane from...

When he died in 1907, Augustus Saint-Gaudens was solidly established as America's greatest sculptor, the creator of heroic public monuments such as New York's equestrian General Sherman, Chicago's standing Lincoln and Washington's Adams Memorial. His smaller, more intimate portrait reliefs are equally distinguished-naturally enough for an artist who started his career as a cameo cutter. In the first major exhibition of Saint-Gaudens' work in 60 years, Washington's National Portrait Gallery assembled 56 pieces, including portraits of such public figures as Architect Stanford White and Writers William...
