Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Color Studies and a Mexican Campaign
Home, nor to do anything at all save mourn the loss that never could be repaired.
It was generally believed that the reason why Madder's pictures sold-for some of them did sell - was that Rose, even badly painted, was worth buying. All his friends wanted to borrow her, but Madder would never lend her she was too valuable to him as stock-in-trade. And with the odd hun dreds which dropped in from his pictures, with some other odd hundreds that he picked up by painting portaits - things hard as stones, which he was wont to say, mod estly, were good because he had caught completely the style of his old master, Sully - he managed to pick up a living, and to keep the frame-maker from the door.
