## Summary

The great painting--it is called “Vers la Gloire,” if I remember rightly--reaches from floor to ceiling of the Pantheon in Paris. Across the huge canvas, in a whirlwind of dust and color, sweeps an avalanche of horsemen--cuirassiers, dragoons, lancers, guides, hussars, chasseurs--with lances levelled, blades swung high, banners streaming--France’s unsung heroes in mad pursuit of Glory.
