ART FROM THE RENASCENCE others from cartoons of Rubens' disciples, with scenes from the Iliad; others from Ruisdael's and Seghers's landscapes; some after Crayer; the story of Job the Patriarch done by Master Jakob van Zeunen, of Brussels; finally, the gobelin chasubles from the Warsaw factory of F. Glaize, dated 1745 and 1748. From the same workshop came the precious altar-cloths (antependia) to be

seen in the Czartoryski Museum. The ladies of the time were fond of art at home and produced works of exquisite taste, faithfully reflecting the change of fashions and styles. The embroideries of Queen Anne, at least, certainly deserve notice from this point of view. A bookbinding of 1582, or the altar-cloth of the Sigismund Chapel, may be mentioned as fine specimens of this kind of domestic industry.
