Excerpt from Andria
In truth it was a charming portrait of a beautiful bright-haired girl, and Bent had excuses for his elation.
The vivid passions and emotions stirring within him all sprang from the portrait. For years he had turned out the machine-made pictures which, by process of popular selection, and the medium of copyright, drift into the oleographic reproduction of the lodging-house drawing-room. But there was nothing machine-made in Andria's portrait.
I didn't think it was in you, candidly I didn't,' said Straight the ra. When he saw it.
