...loved animals and raised hamsters with tender care. He was a good swimmer, and he played on the high-school junior varsity football team. He liked children and was in constant demand as a baby sitter. His father was a little disappointed after his son finished high school last summer because Fred insisted on enlisting in the Marines instead of going to college. But 18-year-old Fred was a sight to warm any father's heart when he came home on a ten-day leave from Camp Lejeune, N.C. He was tanned, soldierly, and as polite and thoughtful...

Claude Lorrain's Sermon on the Mount created a hilltop grove, shepherds and their flock, a wide and crowded harbor and a distant town, all with a little ink and broad watery washes. Peter Paul Rubens' delicately tinted watercolor of a farmyard was as tender and vivid as April grass. Thomas Gainsborough's charcoal sketches showed that he could read the face of a field as surely as a human expression...
