He was ar chitect to the kiug. beloved at court, a member of parliament, aud It was said of him that he "could uot help adorning all that he touched.” Those of the English people who dwell in Adam houses prize them as rare Jew els. * Adam Introduced into English ar- chitecture a lightness, delicacy of touch and charm of proportion which It had never tiefore possessed and which gave hls name to that splendid period of architecture the style of which lasted over a century. Every thing In a house, from the panel lu a ceiling to the vases aud gilt wood tri pods and branches for lights, from hangings at the windows to a worn an s hairpin holder, Adam designed himself. Adam got hls rich, beautiful and distinctive style from the ruins of the Emperor Diocletian, at Spalnto. As n fnlsh to interiors he conceived the1 Idea of using figures In relief upon walls, colored and adorned according to Raphael’s Stanze [minted flat itprn the walls of the Vatican Hls Idea was ns bold as Its result was beauti ful.
