The Three-Cornered Hat (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Three-Cornered Hat For a long time we have been accustomed to recognize in the novels of Alarcon his faculty of invention, his wit, and a subtle and enchanting spirit, French in origin and tradition, which he expressed with rare dexterity and ease. Now he has seen fit to reveal himself to us as a skilful painter of splendid quality, a most faithful and capable exponent of the best traditions of the Spanish school, as one accustomed to dip the pen of Quevedo into the palette of Goya.
