Christ on the Cross. | never saw a work OF
art that impressed mt so powerfully. The
subject is usually painful to me, like all 9TH
ers that represent physical suffering. But
the artist has here chosen the moment when
bodily agony has passed away, leaving no
trace, buta very slight contraction of the brow.
The languor Of death has gone over it, and the
serene and holy expression Of the departed
soul alone remains on the beautiful counte-
nance. | think | never saw anything so per-
fectly divine in its expression as the mouth.
The anatomy of the figure is wonderful. The
tension of the muscles, and swelling of every
little vein, are shown as plainly as if it were
indeed a crucifed human figure. The de-
velopement of the head, too, is such as be-
longs TO a character where the high moral
qualities predominant. This perfection in de-
tails is the more remarkable, because the ivo-
ry was wrought by a poor monk of st. Mich
olas, who knew nothing about the making of
images. He was seized upon by a ''divine
mania," the result of intense feeling and re-
ligious meditation. He thought ''the dear
Lord and gracious Mary Mother would aid
him in so holy a labor; and suddenly a vision
sprung up acithin him. 1t would never pass
away from him; and if his thoughts wander
Cd for a moment into the world, he would
bow himself with signs and tears before the
form he was shaping. His penance was to
continue his prayers and his slow labor, with
out food, drink. or sleep, for twenty or
thirty hours, through the night, till the
day-break looked into his cell. On such &C.
casions he sometimes saw a miraculous glory
encircling the head of the figure. Thus he
worked upon it four years, ever chcrishing
the hope that it would be placed in some
church where it would be reverenced by all
the people. Mr.. Lester, our consul at Ge-
noa, overcame his reluctance to sell it, by as
surfing him that in America it would be an OBJ

monk, when | see this work of prayer and
