garde de celuy que je ne doute avoir & volonté &/ moyen de les défendre. Aussi ne passe pas mon désir plus oultre que re-/ quiert la raison: & par cela s'il y a quelqu'un qui sçache donner à la jeunesse/ ayde meilleure & plus pro pre pour parvenir au but qu'elle pretend; nous/ nous resjoulrons avec elle de cela, ôc luy en sçaurons fort bon gré./ Sur ce, seigneur êc amy, je prleray le Tout-puissant, qu'il plaise vous/ continuer les samctes graces en toute prospérité. D'Anvers, le seisiesme de/ Febvrier, M. D. LXXXIX." (forty lines) ("PHILIPS GALLE, TO THE EXCELLENT AND SKILLED MASTER HIERONYMUS FRANCKEN, PAINTER TO THE QUEEN OF FRANCE, GREET INGS. Having learned, worthy lord and friend, that the little books containing divers depictions of nude fig ures, which I brought to light some while ago for the instruction of apprenticed youth, had been received with some favour by several persons, I was advised to lay the true rudiments before them [apprenticed youth], namely those matters which, in my judgment, arc needful for all who feel disposed to become painters, goldsmiths, sculp tors or like artisans. For most frequently one sees that apprentices, although long engaged in the practice of draughtsman ship, nevertheless still toil in darkness, as it were, the which proceeds from an incomprehension of fundamental mat ters. How can one draw or paint perfectly without knowl edge of the skeleton? Or how is he to understand the muscles (which can only be perceived through the skin with difficulty) if wholly unversed in anatomy? One observes this in many people, even in those who would take it amiss not be ranked with the very best, yet they demonstrate that they understand naught of it. I therefore considered it fitting for the young to become conversant with the form and composition of the bones of the dead, and thus sample anatomy a litde. And to that end I have put forward these present figures that they might serve young painters as a guide to the highest learning, just as the rudiments of grammar are for scholars. I devote not one line here to proportion or to measurement, for they have already been clearly expound ed by that great master Albrecht Durer. Nor do I place anatomy before their eyes in the manner of the learned Vesalius, as a matter more befitting doctors and surgeons than us others. Thus I confine myself strictly to the prop er limits of our profession. Appendix 3 A 318 Now, because I know that these depictions must have a good guardian and patron against the envi ous and the disdainful, I send them to you, a trusty cus todian, whom I do not doubt has the will and means for their safeguarding. Nor does my desire exceed that which reason dictates, so if there is one who can furnish a bet ter and more fitting remedy to answer the purpose to which it [the youth] lays claim,, then we rejoice in It, and thank him full heartily. Lord and friend, I pray the almighty for this: may it please him unceasingly to bestow his divine gifts upon you, in all prosper!ty.
