Az ITALIAN PICTURE OF PARIslNA.-
The New York Evening Post has the
iollowing Parisina, one ofByron's most
exquisitely versifed productions, has
received the honors of a musical setting
from Donizetti, and now another Italian
adopts the subject Of the British poet for
pictorial delincatiOu. The artist of the
picture entitled Parisina, now an exhibi-
ton at the Dusseldorf Galleryois Andrea
Gastaldi, an Italian, who has studied for
some time in Paris, and enjoys a fair
reputation there The present work is
marked by considerable boldness of style
and rich, heavy coloriDg. The scene
selected is the sleeping apartment Of the
Ducal palace, where Prince Azo hears
his wife, Parsina, mutter in her slumbers
her lover uugos name, and which Byron
has depicted in the lines af+ g..
"Bu lsyer'd in her sleep she seems. ri
And red her cheek with troubled dreama,
Aud multers she IN her unrest
4 name she dare not breath by day,
And clasps her lord unto tue breast ..
Which pants iof one away -..
A2o is represented as half sitting on
the bed, one hand grasping his poignard
and the other held to his ear, SO as to
catch every word his guilty wife may
utter She, all unconscious Of her una
ware confession, is lying with her hands
half outsrread as though vainly seeking
to clasp soma loved form, while her
, countensnoe betoGens the very depth oi
sleep. Indeed, this face Of Parisina is
the most remarkable point of the picture
The features are not beautiful, nor do
they come to what would be popular
IDEAL of this character; the face is rather
that of voluptuons and almost coarse
young woman, but yet it is marked by a
youth and freshness that contrasts strongly
with tho vindictiye countensnce of the
husband, who leans frowningly forward,
drinking in her muttered words Parisina
is powerful and effective, but NOT a
pleasing picture. asaI.. sas
