nights and ladies too muchdelighted in. Nevertheless, Giottos main
idea abouthim is clearly that he sits in the gate ^ pacifically, witha
cloak thrown over his chain armour (you can just seethe links of it
appear at his throat) and a plain citizenscap for a helmet, and his
sword sheathed, while allrobbery and violence have way in the wild
places abouthim—he heedless. The types of feature and expression chosen
for Justiceand Injustice are peculiarly suggestive when consideredin
mutual opposition. Both are distinguished andintellectual ; but the one
broad and placid, serenelymeditating upon large and distant issues, the
other alertand keen, watching sharply for the immediate
materialadvantage. Faith and Infidelity. Faith is very nobly
represented. She is a tall figure,but the staff in her right band, which
the Cross sur-mounts, is taller than she. Its end rests upon a
brokenidol, which Faith further spurns with her right foot.The first
words of the Creed appear upon a scroll, that i I

CHAPEL AT PADUA 159 is raised in her left hand, and instead of falling,
seems,of its own accord, to rise as it unrolls. This heavenwardtendency
is a marked characteristic of the whole figure,and with the crown or
mitre, which rises to a peak aboveher head, sets her in clear relation
to the spirit, which,in church architecture, finds expression in the
spire.Two angels bend from heaven to converse with her.Its key hangs at
her waist. She treads upon cabalisticbooks, and slits in her robe are
probably to be taken assigns of martyrdom. Infidelity offers a perfect
contrast. According toRuskin and Lord Lindsay he totters upon his feet,
anidea reasonable enough in itself, and repeated by laterwriters; but
surely not the idea Giotto intended toconvey. Infidelity, like
Injustice, is regarded by Giottoas a peculiarly masculine vice, with
sordid self-satisfactionfor its essence. He presents to the world a
miniatureidol of his own m

may be of value inguiding the mind to the central idea, and may
oftenawaken associations of the most far-reaching kind, butif the
realisation of the central idea itself is incomplete,no combination of
accessories, however ingenious, canproduce a genuine work of art. The
equipment ofGiottos Fortitude could hardly be made more sug-gestive than
he has made it. A lion-skin is tiedby the paws about her waist and
shoulders, and thejaw rests as helmet upon her head; her
tower-likeshield presents a lion rampant to the foe whose arrowsand
javelins it has already shattered; heavily coatedwith steel and leather,
she stands on the watch, withweapon prepared to strike. Yet fortitude
is not theeffect conveyed: the face is of a brutal type, and theform so
large and coarse as to command horror ratherthan respect. This seems the
figure of one for whomdanger can have no meaning, rather than of one
whoestimates it at its true worth. Yet Giottos intentionbecomes clearer

Photo, Ali7iari\ \_Arena Chapel TEMPERANCE To face p. 155. THE ARENA
CHAPEL AT PADUA 155 opposes to Fortitude, which is not Fear or
Cowardice,but Inconstancy. He pictures her in the attempt tobalance
herself upon a wheel that rolls down a slopepaved with smooth marble; a
part of her dress iscaught up by the wind into the likeness of a
secondwheel behind her head; she throws one arm up, theother down, in a
futile effort to gain the equilibrium;her limbs are limp, and the
expression of her facevacant. This is clearly the image of one who is at
themercy of every breath of circumstance, whereas Fortitudestands
rooted to earth with a rock-like resolution. Temperance and Wrath.
Giotto is not content to follow the custom of histime and suggest a
Temperance opposed only toGluttony, bearing a pitcher of water in her
hand: hisconception, as Ruskin points out, is far nearer to theGreek
a-wtjipoavvn, moderator of all the passions. Heuses a delicate and
complex symbolism to enforce thisidea. A bit
