es. He gave the two painters a profoundly astute glance that
expressed to the full his suspicions, and his contempt for them, saw
them out of his studio with impetuous haste and in silence, until from
the threshold of his house he bade them "Good-by, my young friends!"
That farewell struck a chill of dread into the two painters. Porbus, in
anxiety, went again on the morrow to see Frenhofer, and learned that he
had died in the night after burning his canvases.
Paris, February, 1832.
