bed. When I first saw it Iwas amazed at the difference between it and cur-rent tradition. It struck me as the most original,easy, dignified, and impressive representation of aman in a sitting position I had ever seen. Yearsof looking at it and studying it in comparisonwith many others of the eminent men of mod-ern times have confirmed that impression. Stillgreater confirmation I found in the opinions ofthree of the greatest sculptors of modern times,— Fremiet, Rodin, and Aube; they were aston-ished at its original and imposing presence. Itis a new man; he has tremendous character,they said. Everything about this picture is sur-prisingly suggestive and admirable. The head inits massiveness, the way it is poised on the shoul-ders, the lines of the legs and arms, and especiallythe bend of the body, in spite of the coverings,are firm, fine, and easy. The kneepans are notover large or shapeless, nor do the hands show anyincongruity in mass, line, or movement. There is 1 See frontispiece.
