4 ideal-perhaps the modern school is too
, material. RI At any rate this picture re-
quires no connoiSeuship to appreciate
: its charms, no high flown imagination to
= comprehend its force. We look at it,
and are at once impressed.
In some such manntr | fancy that we
; might be impressed By description Of
the same scene fro; MacauIey's pen-ii
i Maeauey We're to lny himself out and
work il up into Il written picture.
Il Madonna and child by Carl Muller.
This beautiful picture is OF the size of
life. Maria, descending on clouds shows
!. to the world the Holy Infant, who, in
his left hand, holds The globe redeemed
by the Cross, and With his right hand
blesses it. The face otithe Holy Infant is
not only very beautiful and sweet, but
divinity is acknowledgements upon
his forehead In painting Maria, the
artist has had reference to the ReYela-
ton Of St. John, Chap. -, V. /.

and the moon under her feet, and upon
her head a crown oftwelye stars"
\. Decentralization of Cardinal Woolsey
with Queen Catherine, shortly before
death. by Carl Clasen,.
/ Woolsey.-This mnch feared minister
Fof Henry VIII. had been banished to
to Winchester; but his enemies, not sat
isfied with his humiliation, caused him
to be impeached for High Treason, and
by command OF the. King, ne was con-
! Quoted to London, accompanied only by
| Cavendish, his master OF the horse. The
\ Cardinal suceumbed Under his misfor-
tunes; and III the neighborhood of the
Abbey Of Leicester his strength COM
pie tely abandoned him, lie entered the
abbey, saving to the Abbot, " ] come to
be buried here" Queen Katherine,
travelling to her place of Punishment,
had accidentally entered the abbey ut
about the same time with the Cardinal,
who, in the picture, is shown On his
death bed, the curtains OF which are
partly drawn up. Woolsey, supported
| by Cavendish, stretches his arms towards
the Queen, who gives him her hand
/ Around the bed, stand and lneei, monks
variously affected. Behind the Queen
stands the Abbot, looking mp in thank
falness that two hearts full Of cnmity
| were reconeiled in the last moments OIL
life. ii &
The Cardinals last words were, that
he repented most to have served his
King better than his Sod.
One OF the most charming works in
the gallery is " Fd}Sttt musteriHg has
Recruits," by Schroeder Taken from
Shakespeare Henry the ". In color |
consider it undoubtedly the best figure
piece 'here; it has equal merit in pers-
pective, andis fullof the exquisite humor
Of the scene. Theta Knights swag-
gering attitude, and impudent EXPIRES
sion; the character given to the 'woman's
! tailor" who needs not his scissors to tell
his trade; The management OF the light
in the rccoss behind Falstaii, and the
introduction Of the little page with the
sword appear to be the fine points III the
work, which is one Of admirable keeping
and rare completeness
But | am occupying too much space
with description, which, after al, can
give but faint idea Of the pictures
themselves. Every one who has II love
OF the beautiful within him, (who has
