Recently the discovery in Madrid of
bust of Christ has created quite a
sensation in the world of art. Collec-
tors and dealers are puzzled to know
where this masterpiece of workman
ship came from, and how long it has
been hidden under the dust of CEN

amined it pronounce it to be the work
of Angelo, or of Angelo, o entirely
different is it from the work modern

rock crystal. which makes the bust
strangely unique in appearance.

interest in the discovery, and has re-
Gently taken steps toward having the
bust copied into marble.
