trays a true plastic percep-
tion ; Meditation is very
graceful and noble; the
lower part of the Pieta is
exquisite, particularly the
head and shoulder of the
dead Christ. Branislav
Deskovid’s mastership in
animal sculpture was
proved by his works The
Draught Horse, The Ass,
and The Dog. Two Old
Ones is the best one of
all his compositions, and
has been exhibited in the
“ Salon ” of Paris, where
it gained much approba-

Two well-painted nudes were also among his
contributions—one called The Hot Bath being,
perhaps, the finest bit of painting he has done so

diptych Icarus, the latter an admirable achieve-
