...seamless surfaces of Holbein's paintings hide the machinery, as they were meant to do. For the first impulses, the slow probings and swift appraisals of a face, one must consult the drawings: something easier said than done in America until now.

The Undergraduate Council has recently distributed a question and answer pamphlet about the Board which is quite useful. Those who would like a more official version of much the same information can consult the relevant section in the Handbook for Students. My annual report of two years ago dealt at length with the assumptions and purposes of the Board and is available in my office.
