Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Joy of Youth Those who have descended into the cast room at the British Museum will be aware that copies of the world´s masterpieces are there huddled together and displayed to very inadequate advantage. Space is lacking, and the juxtaposition of the pieces is such that they often rob each other of their finest attributes. On a day in autumn it happened that a young man stepped backwards in the cast room to obtain a better view of the Apollo of Tenea. The result of his action was disastrous, for he collided heavily with a girl behind him and nearly brought her to the ground. He flushed, bowed, and made abject apology; she treated the incident lightly, and took it in good part. He was a clean-shorn, athletic youth of six-and-twenty, with a clear, broad forehead, dark hair, and keen grey eyes; she was four years younger, and displayed unusual beauty and distinction of carriage. Her hair was of a light gold, and her eyes were brown. She was tali and rather slight, but straight and strong.
