1 The difficulty of pinpointing exactly the meaning of these sjumato landscapes is proved by this antithesis: whereas Gantner recognizes in the Mona Lisa background natural forces in their work of destruction, Dr. Kenneth D. Keele interprets ‘the primeval background’ as ‘the Creation'; cf. Time, Dec. 22,1958, p. 41.
