vising the first production of his operas,
the music enthusiasts commissioned
the artist Herkomer to paint the mu-
sician's portrait, but Wagner was dash
Ing about in such a state of frenzy that
he repealed impatiently every attempt
to get him to give sitting" Still,
Herkomer stuck 10 him like a llmpet,
fed with him. walked and talked with
him, watched him conduct his orches-
ira, write music and read books. at
last, when every attempt to secure a
sitting" had failed, Herkomer rose
early one morning, painted with fren-
zied speed all day, spent a short night
I'm restless sleep, rose early again and
painted furiously till on the second
evening he sat down exhausted--but
with his picture finished Wagner was
called In and threw up his hands In
amazement "Ahw he cried. WON

like to look If I could"
