Cargent s picture of Mrs. Waldorf As
tor has been judged unfavorably by the
British Medical Journal for its false an
atomy. This journal finds fault with
the "strained position of the sitter s
shoulders, which are held somewhat
high, the scapulae being pulled back so
that their vertebral borders are almost
touching one another. 1t is not the pc
culiarity of one artist or one sitter, for
il occurs many times and that is a pity,
for this habit of position will be handed
down to succeeding generations.
