THE VIRGIN IN ART.
a New Ideal Of Womanhood Now
Dominates Art IN America
The Annunciation in Modern Paint.
inE-But Few Painters of ReIig-
ious Subjects IN This Gen.
tury-The Reason for This.
lCopyright, 1871

OF the five different epochs in the Pic
tured life of the virgin. the Annuncia-
ton seems the natural accompaniment
of the Easter season, and is the theme
that appeals most generally to modern
painters of sacred subjects. 1t is
scarcely necessary to say that there are
comparatively few painters of religious
themes in this century. The life of the
art student of to-day is in the Latin
quarter rather than the cloister, and
naturally Madonnas do not abound in
the Paris salon. In America there are
practically no painters of note who treat
religious subjects. In England. here
and there great men like BurEe-Jones,
Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and Seymour,
occasionally select theme for a pic
tuTe from the life of the Virgin.
Burne-Jones' angel of the Annun-
ciation," with its marvellous beauty,
original treatment, and intricate work
manship, and his Angel at the Tomb"
are both excellent examples of the han
ding of sacred subjects by modern art
lists But Dante Gabriel Rossetti, the
English poet-painter, in his "Ecce An
ella Domini," is far more poetical and
spiritual in his treatment of this theme
than any other modern English painter.
The Virgin is white-robed and beauti-
full, an ideal of girlish innocence; while
the Angel Gabriel is graceful and digni-
fed, with strange, mysterious beauty
of face and mien. In his hands he bears

"Then a yeoman to leap upon the bed,

Then take the fustian (under blanket),
