Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Untilled Field It was a beautiful summer morning, and Rodney was out of his bed at six o´clock. He usually went for a walk before going to his studio, and this morning his walk had been a very pleasant one, for yesterday´s work had gone well with him. But as he turned into the mews in which his studio was situated he saw the woman whom he employed to light his fire standing in the middle of the roadway. He had never seen her standing in the middle of the roadway before and his doors wide open, and he instantly divined a misfortune, and thought of the Virgin and Child he had just finished. There was nothing else in his studio that he cared much about. A few busts, done long ago, and a few sketches; no work of importance, nothing that he cared about or that could not be replaced if it were broken. He hastened his steps and he would have run if he had not been ashamed to betray his fears to the charwoman. "I´m afraid someone has been into the studio last night. The hasp was off the door when I came this morning. Some of the things are broken." Rodney heard no more. He stood on the threshold looking round the wrecked studio. Three or four casts had been smashed, the floor was covered with broken plaster, and the lay figure was overthrown.
