Curiously enough these two statues are by the young sculptor, DONATELLO. The first (as Martin said) is of the youthful DAVID. Here we have a beautiful body, very much alive and full of action, a truly pagan conception, in which there is complete indiffer ence to the ends of morality. The other statue is that of JOHN the BAPTIST. Here is the embodiment of Christian piety and ethics. It | is the embodiment of UGLINESS. The face is drawn with PAIN; the body is emaciated and half STARVED, misshapen and decrepit; even the clothes are ragged and suggest DIRTINESS. The whole fig ure symbolizes the squalor and wretchedness of life in this WICKED WORLD. The DAVID statue Is an embodiment of the aesthetic GOOD, the figure of JOHN THE BAPTIST, of a moral GOOD. J; Take your choice—(and modernity has taken its choice.) They have unconsciously adopted the CRITERION of beauty the PAOAN concept. And rightfully soi BEAUTY is, as the Immortals Judged it: j; “To man a thing apart; to WOMAN her WHOLE EXISTENCE! ’ J; r TffffiVf; **** * c^m to even artificial BEAUTY.
