Dear Don,

Reply to Darryl Schade: A terrific observation, especially with regard to "Veneziana."

Sorry to be so late with this, but some time ago I came across this in Durant's Story of Civilization Vol 1: Our Oriental Heritage page 750 and thought immediately of TT, Glory, Invitation, and La Veneziana in particular. Akiko may find this interesting. The story concerns a famous Chinese artist, "When Wu had lived long enough, says a pretty tale, he painted a vast landscape, stepped into the mouth of a cave pictured in it, and was never seen again."
