V The elements of painting are said to be, invention, design, co^ louring, and disposition. But, if invention im- plies here original creative power, independent of the imagery of nature and poetry, or of events detailed in history, the term is erroneously applied. The sublimest effort of pictorial art that can be adduced in favour of the received 134 LONGEVITY OF MUSICAL opinion of the inventive genius of painting, is that wonderful picture of the Last Judgment, by Michael Angelo. But the maje...sty and glory, the terror and despair, that are depicted in it, are not invented, but embodied. The ori- ginal of each outline is in the Sacred History, and our wonder is not more at the execution of such a design than at the boldness of the ge- nius that had the courage to undertake it. Imagination is the power which the artist is least necessitated to call into action ; judgment is the master excellence which is requisite to re- gulate and direct the minor qualities that are given by nature, or acquired by experience.
