sign OF an enlarged scale. and after con-
sidering the degree of relief that was
possible with the white layer-for the
depth varies-a wax model was mace 10
serve as a copy. The outline OF the de-
sign was drawn on the stone and cut, the
outer LAYER being pared down till the
dark strata appeared. Then the dificult
and highly artistic part of the work be-
gan-that of sketching in the principal
details and cutting them into the dell
cate forms that made a perfect whole.
