“My tooth is loose;” said Orhan。

At the same time; another part of my mind was concentrating on what was

transpiring between my father and Black。

The  blue  door  of  the  workshop  was  open;  and  I  could  easily  hear  them:

“After  beholding  the  portraits  of  the  Veian  masters;  we  realize  with

horror;” said my father; “that; in painting; eyes can no longer simply be holes

in a face; always the same; but must be just like our own eyes; which reflect

light like a mirror and absorb it like a well。 Lips can no longer be a crack in the

middle  of  faces  flat  as  paper;  but  must  be  nodes  of  expression—each  a

different shade of red—fully expressing our joys; sorrows and spirits with their

slightest contraction or relaxation。 Our noses can no longer be a kind of wall

Was  Black  as  surprised  as  I  was  that  my  father  referred  to  those  infidel

from this dark refuge of mine; I immediately saw that he’d attained a kind of

perfection。

Now; when I bring my eye right up to the hole; I see on his face the worry

that plagues him。 I felt at once guilty and proud that he’d suffered so on my

account。  Black  listened  to  what  my  father  said;  gazing  upon  an  illustration

made for the book; with a look pletely innocent and childlike。 Just then;

when  I  saw  that  he’d  opened  his  pink  mouth  as  a  child  would  have;  I

unexpectedly  felt;  yes;  like  putting  my  breast  into  it。  With  my  fingers  on  his
