Moses Views the Promised Land.
By Lord Leighton, P.R.A.
FROM "DALZIEL'S BIBLE GALLERY."
By permission of Messrs. Herbert Virtue & Co., Ltd.
"Dear Sirs,—I send you two designs for the 'Bible' with apologies for the delay in finishing them. I very much regret I find that the minute work—without which I cannot satisfy myself—on these drawings has proved terribly trying to my eyes. I must therefore ask you to relieve me, for some time at least, of my promises to make some other drawings, as I know that you have already suffered much delay. I hope you will not scruple to give away my subjects.
"In haste,
"I am, dear Sirs,
"Yours faithfully,
"F. Leighton."
