Internationaler Buchtitel. In englischer Sprache. Verlag: Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 90 Seiten, L=152mm, B=229mm, H=5mm, Gew.=145gr, Kartoniert/Broschiert, Klappentext: Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: JAUNE D'ANTIMOINE. DOWN Greenwich way?that is to say, about in the heart of the city of New York?in a room with a glaring south light that made even the thought of painting in it send shivers all over you, Jaune d'Antimoine lived and labored in the service of Art. By all odds, it was the very worst room in the whole building; and that was precisely the reason why Jaune d'Antimoine had chosen it, for the rent was next to nothing: he would have preferred a room that rented for even less. It certainly was a forlorn- looking place. There was no furniture in it worth speaking of; it was cheerless, desolate. A lot of studies of animals were stuck against the walls, and a couple of finished pictures?a lioness with her cubs, and a span of stunning draught-horses?stood in onecorner, frameless. There was good work in the studies, and the pictures really were capital?a fact that Jaune himself recognized, and that made him feel all the more dismal because they so persistently remained unsold. Indeed, this animal-painter was having a pretty hard time of it, and as he sat there day after day in the shocking light, doing honest work and getting no return for it, he could not help growing desperately blue. But to-day Jaune d'Antimoine was not blue, for of a sudden he had come to be stayed by a lofty purpose and upheld by a high resolve: and his purpose and resolve were that within one month's time he would gain for himself a new suit of clothes ! There were several excellent reasons which together served to fortify him in his exalted resolution. The most careless observer could not fail to perceive that the clothes which he wore?and which were incomparably superior to certain others which he possessed but did not wear?were sadly shabby;and Vandyke Brown had asked him to be best man a...<
