POPE HoNoRED PAINTER

At sny rate, Pope Leo Y gave a large sum
for his picture Of the death of Luc eta and
created him cavahere; and the enapels and
Oratorles Of Siena stil treasure his frescoes as
among their most splendid possessions.
With Characteristic bOldness, Bazzi has

picturing the SaFiour Just risen from the
tomb, while the soldiers lie sleeping on the
ground
IF al the rest Of the picture were lost, the
face Of the Redeemer, as painted by II Mattac-
clo, would still be a heritage worthy of setting
up before the eyes OF men for the ages 70
come; for he, as no other arts, mas done. has
given 10 US the cOuntenancC of a Saviour IN
which the strength, the true force Of mans
virility. are not wholly sweetened out BY gentle
ness and humility He, o. al artists. has con-
celved a God Incarnate as a man, not as weak
ling or a lean. inspired zealot.
Piero della Francesca, termed also Piero
Borghese. has given the world a Resurrection,
the simplest and most real Of all if less poetic
in its conception than that Of Bazzi the dash

following generation, and less sympathetic than
the work Of a modern, such as Bouguereau- His

which were destroyed TO make room for the
painting by Raphael Of the Liberation Of
Saint Peter" and similar subjects
His Resurrection" Is almost mathemat.
ically severe, the figure of the Saviour appear
ing in the attitude of one stepping out from
the tomb, the four soldiers resting below Him.
The times and the humanity of the times
have changed. Today, apparent as are true
art and lofty conception IN the work Of the
distant years, the imagination Is held most
potently by that pictured thought of Bougue-
reaus, striking in detail and interesting IN
technique.
We need only the barest essentials of art
TO feel the wordless tragedy Of the mother be-
reft of the Divine Son.
The Washington times., 1908-04-19

I MAY BE that the very absence of any
details III the narrative has suficed to
deter the majority of artists from a task
upon which their most conscientious la
bors must necessarily be apocryphal.
There were no witnesses of the Resurrec-
ton. Dore, drawing his famous illustrations
of the Bible, might well leave to a future day
and to Tissot the task which only protract-
ed study of Palestine and a professedly thor
ough archaeological restoration of Biblical
scenes, such as Tissot undertook to make, could
render justifable.
Yet some few artists, of the present and
the past, have been drawn to the pure pathos
of the grief-stricken women at the tomb or to
the difficult essay of the risen form of the
Saviour, TRANSPORTED, under the awning shadow
of death, to the overwhelming glory of His
divinity.
A Plockhorst has painted his vision of the
empty sepulcher, the Blessed Virgin and her
companions IN stupefaction before the angel
who kept vigil at the sanetifed spot.
And, again, he has aspired to a vision of
the risen Redeemer, appearing in serene
majesty before one Of Them kneeling, yet not
overwhelmed, rejoicing in the proof of His do
minion death. Easter Morning" it Il
called.
Alexander Ender, in "The Holy Women at
the Tomb has created scene more real, yet
more beautiful, than the conception of Flock
horst-a cavern entrance, figure outlined
against the sky beyond, her companions con
fronting the white purity of the angelic being,
lambert In the cavern's gloom.
1t is as though heavenly messenger, of
hope beyond the grave, were there for sweet
assurance, not to them alone, but to all the
peoples of the earth, until the last great day.
4 treatment infinitely more human of the
subject in aspect infinitely more divine, is
that of Holman, another easter Marning,"
which has remembered, as few great paintings
do, the anguish of her who was the mother of
the Christ.
Perhaps in no other conception in the range
of art have the pain of he mother for the
Divine Son, the compassion of the Son for the
grief-torn mother, been so dramatically set
&%rth.

literal story Of the Resurrection, with its sleep
ing soldiery and the single, impressive figure Of
the Redeemer, Is strictly adhered to.
In the Palazzo della Signoria, IN Siena, is
the Resurrection" Of Giovanni Antonio Bazzi,
II Sodoma, as he was known when al Europe
was dividing its attention among war, trade,
art and the conquest of this virgin world.
He was, If ever an artist was, and remained
throughout his career, the true bohemian They
used 10 refer to him as II Mattaccio, NThe
Maniac" for he dressed Ike a mountebank, and
ms house was very Noah's Ark for animals Of
al descriptions He reveled IN music, and he
delighted in practical jokes-an ancient Ro-
dOlphe, Marcel and Sehannard, all rolled into
one
But he possessed, IN a superb degree, the
strong coloring and the other distinctive marks
Of the Lombard school; and he wa as brilliant
and facile as he was negligent and idle. Per
hlps the Noah's Ark. which his contemporaries
derided. was the source of his power in draw
ing at time when natures superb creations
Of bone and muscle occasionally Jared III at the

presence IN the chamber beyond.
The other, Of all men, IS by Sir Philip
Burne-Jones, whose Vampire" has had as
much notoriety as fame. Comparatively few
among those who have admired or have reviled
the mastery handling of the Vampire are
that the artist who pictured that bitter
irony of human love has created some Of the
most inspiring conceptions of poesy and of
faith.
Yet his cave Maris Stella" with its wom-
anly personifcation ~ hope and salvation en-
shrined upon the sto-m-beaten rock TO which
the shipwrecked mariner clings, Is all of wom-
ans blessed inspiration, as the Vampire" Is
all of woman's succubous selhshness.
In MARY Magoalen at the Sepulcher" he
has made a picture of 4 ;nitable grace, IN
stinct with the spirit Of truest reverence
Within the low-vaulteJ cavern the angels rest
upon the open tomb while the Magdalen gazes
in awed surprise at the form of the Saviour,
the splendor of His presence as impressively
portrayed as is the realness of His tender,
grave humanity.
1t IS noteworthy, a sign of the modern
consideration of woman, how modeTnity In art,
IN the few examples of the Holy Sepulcher it
affords, seizes upon the solemn situation afford
ed by the presence of the grieving mother and
her friends
And 1t is equally significant of her rela-
lively minor position IN the older civilizations

that must have torn His heart when, In the
flesh, He submitted to the suferings of His
inexorable destiny, the risen Saviour-it is an
epltome OF the zeal Easter morning such as no
art could excel, because its very simplicity is
the essence of the real.
OF two notable modern presentations of
the scene at the Holy Sepulcher, one is that of
the famous Bouguereau, whose exquisite skill

no inheritor of the perfections of his touch
