great Italian artist Francesca Crecentio
while in Rome. and her apartments
were filed with high church dignitaries
and people of rank and distinction dur

bulky for a woman says one Of those
who had met her. though for all that
she has not the appearance of being a
perfect man. Her cOuntenance is
neither handsome nor ugly: it appears
rather carewOrn and sad in Tepose. Her
hair is short, with some locks hanging
over the forhead, as is the present
fashion for men (straight bang). She
is not feminine in any respect. She
always wears a sword grit well around
tire waist Her head is a little bent
forward. but more like a gallant soldier
than Ike a CouTtieT. Her manners and
voice are dignifed and almost courtly.

She Is rather reticent in regard to her
