The waxen mask, supported on the arm of the chair, remained motionless and gazed with gloomy eyes into space. "Overbeck!" began Kranitski, and added, "a pre-Raphaelite." Over Maryan's fixed features ran a quiver caused by better thoughts. Without the least movement of features or posture he grumbled: "Nazarene." Kranitski corrected himself hurriedly and with a shamed face. "Yes, pardon!
Francis is said to be also preserved within the church; but we did not see it, unless it were a little dark closet into which we squeezed to see some frescos by La Spagna. It had an old wooden door, of which U picked off a little bit of a chip, to serve as a relic. There is a fresco in the church, on the pediment of the chapel, by Overbeck, representing the Assumption of the Virgin.
I am the algebraic x which represents the infinite divisibility of a finite particle. "Sir Overbeck felt a shudder as though an ice-cold hand had been placed upon his brow. 'What is your message? he whispered, falling prostrate before his mysterious visitor. "'To tell you that the eternities beget chaos, and that the immensities are at the mercy of the divine ananke.
"'Nay, said Sir Overbeck Wells, drawing himself up to his full height, and laying his hand upon the hilt of his sword, 'there I cannot follow thee, but must rather defy thee as traitor and faineant, seeing that thou art no true man, but one who would usurp the rights of our master the king, whom may the Virgin protect!
Overbeck left his family in McM. row and swam to the club house, then he tried to swim to Morrell's residence and was drowned. His family was saved. At the corner of the company's store a man called for help for two days, but no one could reach him. The voice finally ceased and I suppose he died. A Brave Girl. "Rose Clark was fastened in the débris at the bridge.
"My father was a well-to-do yeoman of Cheshire, named Cyprian Overbeck, but, marrying about the year 1617, he assumed the name of his wife's family, which was Wells; and thus I, their eldest son, was named Cyprian Overbeck Wells.
I shall look into myself; I shall look around me. Meanwhile, I must go; for I have promised one of my friends to be at a certain collector's place at a given hour, to examine a very curious picture. It is an original; an authentic Overbeck. A rare thing; a real find I take farewell of you, my father." He made a low bow and went out.
Overbeck makes frequent use of natural scenery, and his delicate yet firm outlines repeat, hill and valley and clouds, the sentiment of peace and purity which pervades his noble productions. Not that there are not produced frequently, and especially in France, works remarkable for truth and power. But, too often, the truths are redundant, and the power vanquishes the sentiments of the group.
Overbeck was in this our greatest master. Since this period, the two great schools at Munich and Dusseldorf, founded by Peter Cornelius, and whose greatest masters are Peter Hesz, Bendemann, Lessing, Kaulbach, etc., have sought a middle path, and with earnest zeal well and skilfully opposed the too narrow imitation of, and the medley of style produced by the study of, the numerous old masters on the one hand, and, on the other, the search for effect, that Gallic innovation so generally in vogue.
I make him equal to Overbeck; and I consider him superior to Fuhrich and Veit " "I will give thee Veit, but as to Overbeck, that marvellous melancholy which fills the eyes of his women " "It is earthly, earthly, rather than that perfect expression from beyond which is dominant in Steinle's figures. In this regard Steinle is the only man whom we may compare with Fra Angelico "
