This description is the text from the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica, but I cannot understand it. Can someone improve "doubtless the work of Boethus that we know" (does this mean "doubtless a sculpture by Boethus, whose work we know"?); and "The oily sacristan is admirably painted in a few slight strokes" (does this mean "The oily sacristan is admirably portrayed in a few slight phrases"?)
