Boston, Oct. 14, 1843. dear Lieber,—You ask for my first sight of Orpheus. It has been most melancholy. I am glad the artist, who has brooded over this chef d'oeuvre for five years, was not with us. Greene says he would have gone into hysterics. With the assistance of a carpenter two boards were knocked off (Greene, T. B. Curtis, and myself being present), which revealed the head and breast. The impression was dazzling, and I almost caught the word Eurydice from the marble lips. A small bit only was broken from the lyre; and we congratulated ourselves on finding it in such beautiful order. Two boards were next knocked off which covered the feet, the dog, and legs. It was truly distressing to see the chaos there. Both legs were broken above the knees and at the ankles; and the dog was broken in two pieces, th

orwaldsen's atelier, where, indeed, grace and power seem to have retired. The other artists make abundance of long-legged things that they call Nymphs and Venuses and Psyches, and a plenty of chubby boys that they would pass off for Genii; but all poetry is wanting. There is more depth of meaning in the group that Greenough made for Mr. Cabot than in all of them put together. A group representing a child-angel ushering a newly arrived child-spirit into heaven. It is now owned by Mrs. T. B. Curtis, of Boston. Painting is still worse. Cammuccini here and Benvenuti in Florence reign supreme, but there is not a man in Europe who can paint a picture like Allston. . . . .
