Titan, His Art
and Life Story

-HH concluding paragraph Of
Georg Groneau's sympathetic
study Of the life and talents Of
the great Titan explains why
a careful reading of his book is not
without reward to lovers of the best
in art. 'T1tian's fame" writes Gro
neau, has lasted more evenly and
been subjected to fewer fluctuations
than even that Of Raphael and Michel
Angelo. who at times have been judged
somewhat coldly. It was left for men
Of our century when they were be-
ginning to regard the coleristS as ar
tists Of the second rank. to imagine
for one brief moment that they might
cast doubts on the greatness and ma
5esty OF Titan's art"
1t Is the self-selected task. then, Of
this eminent European art critic to
show by his detailed analysis OF the
great Venetian's work why it In that

to some its best expression In the
Sacred and Profane Love"-,called by
Ridolf1 in 1913 by the homely title, 1.-TWO
women near a fountain in which a
child is looking at his reflection" In
fact the original title composed by the
creator is lost and the one commonly
accepted now found origin with the
Germans.
According to Groneau 1t is as a por-
trait painter that Titan appeals the
most strongly to modern wielders Of
the brush. OF his portraits there are
score. become familiar to every artist
who essays this difficult art. 1t was
as the painter of such canvases that
Titan became the courted of kings and
the honored guest of princes. While
at the court of the Hapsburgs Titan
produced two portraits of Charles the
Fifth and later the famous portrait of
the tyrant Philip of Spain-the latter
"a miracle of art according to
Morelli. Thus does Groneau char
acterize Titian's genius in this chan
mel of effort:
HE reveals the Utmost soul of his
model with a clearness and keenness
which testify to his extraordinarily
cool observation. Not only the artist
in Titan appears to be interested, but
Titan the man. He observes the car
riage, the gestures, sees the soul re-
fected in the eye, and his hand records
these observations with triumphant
certainty. At the same time he is ever
approaching more nearly to the great
est simplicity and breadth OF view -
Very studied and very well put are
all of Groneau's criticisms upon the
manifold aspect of Titian's work These,
with the running biography which
serves to link together the various ap-
precautions, make the book one of a
value not solely for art experts Any
one of culture may learn much by an
appreciative reading.

nent misrule" of the feudal system.
Indt ed, did Anglo-Saxon King Arthur
and his knights of the table round
represent anything but the feudal
theory?
After allowing us to believe that the
invasion Of the Normans was nothing
but a continuation of the earlier I'M
cursiong OF pure Danish stock, the
author continues to trace the warning
influences Of Anglo-SaXon and Nor
man ideas through all England's SUBJ
sequent existence. Even after the
testimony of English history. of Eng
lish literature and of English tradition
fail TO show aught but an homogeneous
English people, the writer persists in
seeing everywhere in government a
rampant "Normanism" and a pug
nacious "Anglo-Saxonism." The wars
OF Simon de Montfort but clinched the
letters of the commons or Anglo
Saxons, the Hundred Years War was
fought entirely in the interests OF the
No=nans, the great Civil War was
avowedly a struggle between Anglo
Saxon and Norman, even the American

scheme OF skin-clad Angle and Saxon
over the oppressive tyranny Of the
armor-girt follower Of William L This
stretching of fact to meet theory is
fantastic, IL naught else.
In tracing the transplanting Of the
Anglo-Saxon idea to America, Mr.. Tapp
has to make the most interesting
hurdling over historical fact in the
whole volume. His statement that the
Puritan belief in the right to worship
God without any sanction from any
priesthood or ecclesiastical court" was
but q perfect demonstration Of the An
glc-saxon spirit OF liberty, does not
take into account the tale OF Roger
williams and Anne Hutchinson, who
were denied sanction to prs1ch by this
very magnanimous genius Of freedom.
Again. in an attempt to reconcile the
presence IN the colonies OF the Vir-
gilman cavaliers and the aristocracy Of
the Southern observation-disclosures
certainly-with his dogma Of an Anglo
Saxon outpouring from England to
America, our author gathers these
worthy Revolutionary fathers under
the generic title of "a few Of the priv
legged classes Of England who had been
sent over to rule and collect taxes. "
This surely will not be altogether ac-
ceptable to the pride Of some F. F. VS..

icate little canoes of literature
as those comprised in the Red Letter
Library Series, published in this coun-
try by Messrs. II. NJ. Caldwell & Co. Of
Boston in connection with Blackie &
Co. of Glasgow. Each volume of this
series is devoted to selections from the
minor classics of English literature,
ranging from the works of Thomas a
Kempis and the still earlier church
father, st. Augustine, down to Emer-
son and the genial Autocrat of the
Breakfast Table. Each number of the
library is given increased merit by the
addition of a vignette Introduction, BIZ
ographical and critical, from the pen Of
some modern authority.
In the fifth of the series, the selected
poems Of Shelley, the prefatorial du-
ties are undertaken by Mrs. Alice Mey-
nell, the well known English woman
Of letters. Though her critical estimate
Of the poet is encompassed In q few
hundred words, Mrs. Meynell has hit
off the peculiar quality of the roman

to her view, since he Is not possessed
Of the divine fire of poesy which car

nificance in the fight of years. Not
the cold perfection of technique that
was Michel Angeles, nor the delicacy
of line that was Raphaels is the
charm which makes Titian's canvases
living elements of to-day's esthetic
appreciation: in his art it is color
color expressing all the passionate
feeling and animated action of mas
ter genius. He who would be a
painter" said Titan, needs to know
but three coors-white, black and
red-and to have them well in hand"
No one since his time has had the
colors so well in hand"
Groneau seeks to show in the early
chapters of his work how it was that
the conditions of life and art in Venice
brought to the young Vecellio, just
taking up his abode in the Adriatic
city, consuming passion for high
colors. Venice, then in the height of
Its glory, was the constant theater for
gorgeous pageants and glittering spec
tacles. House fronts and cathedrals'
exteriors were crusted with frescoes
and mosaics Of rich and harmonious
colors. The people reveled In color
for colcr's sake. So 1t was that when
the young painter, fresh from the
pastoral beauties OF the lower Tyrol,
came into the zone Of this riotous
chromatic extravaganza his soul
caught the tune of things and his
palette glowed as none has since done.
It was with Giorgione, then dean Of
Venetian painters. that Titan worked,
hrst as pupil and then as intimate fell
ffe-v1o III a.
his master a profoundly spiritual con-
cepdon of portraiture and exemplify-
ing 1t in his early paintings to suoh
degree that the works Of the respec-
tive artists have been confused. Titan
gradually began to forsake the lyrical
mood and to give vein to his penchant
Tor the dramatic. By so doing he put
life into the conventional set figures
OF religious paintings. Says Groneau:
Titan passed with rapid strides
through the whole range Of problems
possible in altar picture; in the As
sunta he introduced into Venice en-
tirely new subject matter; he trans
ported The Madonna With Saints out
or world OF quiet existence into the
restless and changeful conditions OF
real life; he set aside the old ideas Of
composition and removed the principal
group from the central line of the pic
ture, and by means Of his structure
Of lines and his ordered harmony Of
color pervading the whole, created q
new and dramatically life-liks present.
ment Of the old theme
Unlike Raphael, Titan did not come
to the highest fruition of his powers
until he had reached middle life, but
he was painting some OF his best pic
lures at an age when most men would
be In their graves. Thus 1t Is that
not until after his thirtieth year did
Titan begin to produce these master
pieces OF sacred art and, the series Of
allegorical studies In the nude, which
number some Of his most famous
paintings. Tttian's love for the beautt-

John Harwood Bacon is a man not

Clarke. This volume, like all the
others, presents peculiar attractions to
Shakespeare students in that it gives
in the first popular edition the original
text Of the great dramatist's works,
without amendation or undermining OF
any part.
As Shakespeare specialists know, the
First Folio is the sole authority for
twenty Of the plays and furnishes the
first complete text Of two besides. The
appearance before the death OF the
poet Of the earlier quarto issues was
both unauthorized and productive Of
inevitable discrepancies in the text
But to the lack Of scholarly care in
Shakespeare first publishers must 1t
be attributed that in many instances
the early unauthorized quarto editions
were made the foundation for the folio
printing after Shakespeare's death. As
the joint editors of this new First
Folio" edition show, however, these
sixteen plays pirated in the quarto
form show signs of revision~at the
hands of the author in The Folio and
are therefore more nearly authentic in
that form.
After all the f1oundering about on
the part of Shakespeare editors, the
modern tendency, given strong impulse
by the work Of DR.. Furness, is to
reversal to the original text with no
tations of variations from that in
chronological order. This Charlotte
Porter and Helen Clarke have done in
their popular edition IN a manner
scholarly and complete. Footnotes
serve to point out variations in the
Globe or Cambridge texts and complete
variorum readings, extensive literary
illustrations and glossary give this
series of handy little Shakespeares ex-
ceptional value.

"The American Boys Life Of Theo-

meyer. is an excellent book for the
American boy to read once and then
again. The narrative covers the whole
life of the President from schoolboy to
his present exalted position in a style
we'll fitted to Juvenile comprehension
and appreciation. The author has been
quick to catch the fascinating phases
OF Roosevelt's life as hunter, plains
man and rough rider and deals with
the profundities OF politics only In such
measure as is necessary. The descrip-
lions Of battle scenes In Cuba are
well calculated to hold the boyish
fancy.

perintendent of Schools Of Elizabeth,
N. j., and a familiar writer on sub
jects of home influence and home train
ing, has produced book on The Man
agement and Training Of Children"
which may be found useful to some
mothers. There are chapters upon the
responsibility of parents, upon SYM
pathy between parent and child and
the development of good and bad in
stincts in the youngster. All this Is
perfect theoretically without doubt, but
it is not the consensus of opinion that
children can be raised on theory.
Usually the eldest grows up under the
straight rule of principle and all sue
cessive progeny are raised by expert
ence" A book on the theory Of child
training must be used by the young
mother much as a cook book-sparing-
ly; this last statement, however, the
writer disclaims as original. nor will
he stand the responsibility for its ut
terance, since he but quotes one who
