Eastlake as yet occupied no responsible position, yet the sense that he was an authorit}' in various departments of the arts ver}' widel}' prevailed. In 1837 he was requested to give assistance in a matter where a painter is not generally invoked — nameh', in the design for the sculpture to occupy the pediment of the FitzwilUam Museum at Cambridge ; a building then in course of erection by his friend Mr. Basevi. He accord- ingly supi^lied the design of the figm-es of the Muses, super- intended ...theii' execution by Mr. Nicholl, and finally (in June, 1840) their erection. Before this he had been included in a meeting at the British Museum, " called by " the Architects' Institute to ascertain whether the Elgin " marbles were painted or not. Faraday, who was present, " has I think proved that the brown stams on the marble " never could have been paint. It had been asserted that " the columns and all in the Parthenon were painted. " In June, 1840, an article by him entitled the " Life of " Raphael, " appeared in the Quarterly Review.
