Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Picture of Las Cruces a Romance of Mexico There is not in the whole of the lovely Mexican land, and it is doubtful if there is in the wide world, a more picturesque and delightful city than the city of Morelia, or one more fascinating to the artist eye and soul. So at least Ralph Ingraham thought, as he paced slowly along the beautiful Calzada de Guadalupe, drinking in, as it were, at every pore the perfect picturesqueness of the scenes around him. For Nature had given Ingraham a true artist´s soul, and his friends among the kindly fraternity of the pencil and the brush were often heard disinterestedly to lament that he had not the spur of necessity to force him to efforts which are seldom made without that disagreeable but salutary incentive. Yet he had won an honourable place among them by work that could not be decried as that of an amateur, but was of a sufficiently original character to prove his ability and give promise of better things in the future, were love of art and the strong creative impulse that we call genius to triumph over the temptation to dilettanteism offered by great wealth.
