Young man of Malibu






A good spot for him. Someone translated
in black chalk in Rome in the early 17th
Century, brought to a promontory off Sun-
set Boulevard in the later 20th, survey-
ing the beaches of Malibu. How well he
does travel, beyond the most glittering
apartments in the city of art. Nice work.
