So, from sadness to stri-dent laughter, the spirit ofFornara continues to seekout beauty, and guides us to those luminous sightsof nature which the painter, with his love of hisnative valleys, continues to interrogate with enthu-siasm, while cultivating his mind by reading themost modern and the most suggestive authors,from J. K. Huysmans to John Ruskin. He livesin his valley, and the ^^alle dOssola beholds inhim its own poet, full of v(?-7e and sincerity. Alfredo BY CARLO FORNARA.
