A DEFENCE OF THE NUDE.

A nude picture or statue, unless made so by the artist, is not essentially offensive to any purc mind. Whether it invokes censure or admira- tion depends on the mental spectacles through which it is seen. The spiritual, like the visible physical eye, if diseased, distorts all objects. It is the "Mind's eye" that perceives what is good or bad, chaste or unchaste. When Adam and Eve dwelt in Paradise before they ate.

The frust

"

Of that forbidden tree, whose metal tasta Brought de things the warld and all our wE, they beheld their nakedness Without shame. It was only when their sight had been perverted by sin that they clothed themselves with fig leavci, The moral of that fact is now, as it was then, that only a depraved mind can see anything revolting in that nudity which our first parents, when innocent, regarded without a blush. It is true that all their offspring are sintul by in- heritance, but not equally so. Great in number as may be those who are grossly impure, there are many who are comparatively pure. They behold nothing in a picture of a nude human form but its beauty and the skill of the artist.

There are women who daily observe their naked figur in a mirror with supreme satisfac- tion, and delight themselves with that amuse- ment. When a dirty street-crossing affords them an apparent excuse for it, they lift their skirts to show their feet and legs, if they are exceptionally bandsome. Worse than that, they go to fashion- able bails and receptions with their backs and Breasts so bare is to disgust even the most im- modest man. They make themselves like wise equally conspicurus at our seaside resorts during the bathing hour. Yet, when they behold a rainting of a woman just as Eve ap- peared in Eden before the fall, they scream with affected brrrar. There are also hypocrites of the masculine gender, secretly guilty of shame less lewdness, who, to gain a reputation for "uncommon-virtue.-pretend-to-be-revo trd by. even the most delicately drawn and exquisitely colored portrait of a mythological symph or geddess. Furthermore, this preposterous scru pulosity as to nudity on an artist's canvas is ridiculed by the fact that our so-called best society men and women go to the theaters night aller night, where young ballet girls show their legs in tights up to their thighs, and even crowd thither to behold Mrs. James Brown Potter, in the role of Cleopatra, expose her limbs in a diaphanous drapery that does not hide her nakedness from hend foot. Hence, of course, our prudish preaching is quite inconsistent with our practice.

The ancients were not afraid of the nude in art. They loved art for itself, seeing nothing in it that suggested vulgar ideas, and did not fear that it would degrade, but rather elevate them morally and intellectuaily. For example, the model for the statue of the Chidion Venus of Praxiteles, preserved at Florence, and now kooWA

as the Venus de Mediei, was a famous courtesan

named Phryne. It is related of Zeuxia, one of the greatest of the Hellenic painters, who excelled in painting female beauty, that the people of Cretona, wanting him to paint a naked Helen, showed him a great number of the most beautiful boys, saying that from them he might easily guess the beauty of their risers. "No." said be, "send me the young women." Uniting their separate perfections in his picture, he is said to have a miracle of beauty." Vice, like produced " virtue, may be the result of education. Any haman soul originally chaste, by habitually making itself conversant with what is unchaste, may become so corrupted that it can see nothing but unchasteness in anything.

Hongkang, 10th December 1889.

This is the fate of Mr. Comstock, the C. R. Bennett of New York, the poor devil who sup- poses he has been divinely commissioned as a propagandist of purity in fine art. His judgment in that respect is so debased that he might even hale an angel to a New York Alderman should heever be fortunate enough to behold one witbost either earthly or celestial raiment. Outside of the limit of positive decency he is quite right. But beyond that he is foolishly fanatical. Pictures of nearly naked women in the windows of cigar stores may be fairly objectionable because they possess no artistic merit; but a Venus by the greatest of the ancient, masters should not be so condemned. The perfect beauty of a work of art ought to arrest the eye and interest the mind outside of its subject. Art in its supreme expression should exclude all ideas of impurity, It alone should be observed, and, therefore, provoke no unnecessary censorious criticism. Philadelphia Telegraph.
