Excerpt from The Diary of a Man of Fifty: Again the young man hesitated a little, and then he confessed that the group of painters he preferred, on the whole, to all others was that of the early Florentines. I was so struck with this that I stopped short. That was exactly my taste! And then I passed my hand into his arm, and we went our way again. We sat down on an old stone bench in the Cascine, and a solemn, blank-eyed Hermes, with wrinkles accentuated by the dust of ages, stood above us and listened to our talk.
