MONVEL, Louis Maihice Boitet oe (ls.')ll— ). A French genre ami portrait ])aiiit('r anil illustrator, l)orn in Orleans. He studied under De Rudder, and then with Cabancl at the Eeole des lieaux-Arts, and after the war of 1870-71, in which he took part, he studied in the Atelier .Julien, and still later with Carolus Duran. He began to exhibit in 1874, and after- wards won several medals, but Tneanwliile he took up illustrating. Soon his individual, unmis- takable style showed itself in the drawings he made for Chansonn et rondrs (1SS3) : ('hduxniis de France (1884); Xos enfaiils (1S8G): La cir'ilitc puMIe : the fables of La Fontaine ( 1888) ; and the exquisite black and white work in Fabre's Xavure (1800). His work is usually done in flat tones. and is e.xceedingly decorative in quality. His technical training made him a faultless^draughtsnian. The decision and beauty of his line, his strong, clear color, the charm and naiveKi of his delineation of child-life, have made him a conspicuous figure in this field of illustra- tion. His ".Jeanne d'Arc" (1807) is a masterpiece of composition. He also did si.x canvases, represent- ing the history of the JIaid. for the memorial church at Domn'my. His portraits, jiarticularly those of children, and notably the daughter of Madame Rejane, are well known in America. His large pictures, which include "The Apothe- osis" ( 1885) , an episode of the C<mnuune, are less interesting. Consult Modprn Frrnch Masters, edited by Van Dyke (Xew York, 1806). MONZA. muii'tsa.

The mood, like the emotion, is made uj) of ideas and affection : hut it does not centre about a 'situation' as the emotion does. The emotion of fear. e.g. always has its otiject. One fears an enemy, an approaching storm, a ruined reputation. .And the object occupies the 'focus' of consciousness. But the fusion of ideas and feelings that compose the mood is marginal. .Ml sorts of mental processes may demand the attention in turn and in turn pass out of consciousness; but the mood remains as a vague background to them all. iloods fulfill various olliccs in mental economy. (1) They determine associations; according as one is cheerful or melancholy, one thinks of cheerful or melancholy things. (2) The 'at home' mood is an important factor in recognition and imagination. (3) The moods of acquiescence, of discomfort, of mild surprise, of expectancy, etc., are prominent in belief, comparison, judg- ment, and rea.soning. Con.sult: Titehener.
