WHITENY -10- in a review of Mrs. Whitney's works as exhibited in the McLean Gallery in the Haymarket, London: "Her reputation rests on a sound basis, inasmuch as her technique is beyond criticism. Her exhibition consists of two ideas. One, her earlier works, shows the influence of Rodin. These statues are real and poignant, decorative, as only good taste can decorate, and with tenacious quality which comes from this woman's vision of life and history. "In her second phase I believe that her figures of American soldiers reveal to the British mind exactly that motive which placed the United States in the war, shoulder to shoulder with the British, French, and Italians." Among Mrs. Whitney's best known works, aside from those with a war motif, are her "Aztec Fountain," for the Pan-American Building in Washington, D.C.; the "El Dorado Fountain" in San Francisco, California; "Paganisme;"
