NOTE TO VOL. IV

CHIEF perhaps in importance in this volume are the new biographies of the great
British painters, Keynolds, Romney, Raeburn, Rossetti, and Russell. The first
President of the Academy has been undertaken by Mr. Algernon Graves, F.S.A.,
the leading authority of the day. The biography of Romney has been contributed
by Mr. Roberts, who is now engaged upon a monograph on that artist. Raeburn
has been fittingly given to the Scots critic, Mr. Caw, who has devoted special
attention to the portraits of that master. Rossetti has naturally fallen to Mr.
Marillier, his latest biographer, and Russell to the Editor, as the author of a monograph
on the great painter in pastel.

A very striking article on Ruskin has been contributed by Mr. Frederic Harrison,
who better than almost any other writer of the present day realizes the influence upon
art exercised by " The Master," while another biography deserving special mention is
the one on Titian by Mr. Herbert Cook, who has also written the biography of
Previtali. Rembrandt and Rubens have fallen to Mr. Malcolm Bell, and the Editor
calls attention to the exhaustive and carefully-classified lists of works, especially by
Rembrandt, which that writer has provided.

Amongst the Italian Masters the curious and bewildering school of the Piazzas
with Piazzetta and the Pitati, once known as the Bonifazio I., II., and III., have
been under the charge of Miss Constance Jocelyn Ffoulkes ; the work of Raphael
has been treated in the light of recent research by Julia Cartwright (Mrs. Ady),
and Mr. Selwyn Brinton has made a careful study of Pisano.

Some of the lesser-known men have been undertaken by Mr. R. H. Hobart Cust,
and particular attention may be directed to his articles on Neroccio, Pacchiarotti, and
Peruzzi.

Entirely new biographies based upon recent monographs also appear in this
volume upon Tintoretto and Francia, and a very complete one of Guido, whose
pictures are worthy of more attention than they receive at the present time, while
with regard to Palma the Editor has been fortunate enough to enlist the services of
Dr. Gronau, and so to secure the very latest discovered information respecting that
noble painter.

The veteran Mr. Weale has, as in other volumes, taken the Flemish painters
under bis care, and the biographies of P. Nachtegaele, Neufchatel, Nieulant, Oost
(three), Orley (three), A. van Ouwater, A. van Overbeck, J. Prevost, Pourbus (three),
P. Quast, A. Raguineau, J. Ramey, and Rijckaerts (three) are from his pen, while



vi NOTE TO VOL. IV.

he has also assisted in correcting the various Ravesteyn biographies. Dr. Martin of
the Hague has been mainly responsible for these last-named articles, and also for
those on Adriaen, Isack van Ostade, Paulus Potter, and Ruisdael.

The miniature painters have not been overlooked, and the three Robertsons, who
have never before received their full measure of attention, are the subjects of special
biographies by Miss Emily Robertson, the daughter of Andrew Robertson. New
lives have been contributed of Isaac and of Peter Oliver, of Andrew and Nathaniel
Plimer, of Nixon, Prieur, and many of the lesser-known painters in miniature
and enamel.

As in previous volumes, Dr. Laing of Dundee has undertaken various members of
the Scottish and allied Schools, writing the biographies of R. H. Nibbs, W. H. Overend,
R. Nightingale, Walter H. Paton, P. W. Nicholson, A. W. Rattray, F. R. Pickersgill,
W. P. Osborne, J. T. Ross, P. Peel, C. Pearson, and others, while the two artists named
Arthur Perigal have been the subjects of special articles by Mrs. O'Reilly, the daughter
of the younger painter.

Some attention has been directed to gifted amateurs such as Dr. Propert, art
writers and critics as J. Hungerford Pollen and R. Redgrave, glass painters as Peckitt,
Oliver, and Price, caricaturists as Rowlaudson, medallists as Pistrucci and Pingo,
flower painters as Marianne North and Maud Naftel, and artists who are specially
known in connection with architecture and decoration, such as the members of the
Pugin (three), Papworth (six), and Parry (six) families. Several of these new
biographies have been written by members of the families concerned, or by experts
who have devoted particular attention to the artists in question.

i The Liverpool painters, F. C. Newcombe, J. W. Oakes, B. Ousey, H. C. Pidgeon,
J. Pelham, J. Pennington, and G. Nicholson have been given into the care of Mr.
Dibdin, who has been devoted for many years to the study of their paintings.

Mr. Martin Hardie of the South Kensington Art Library, beside helping very
much with the minor painters in miniature, has contributed the lives of H. Ninham,
W. Parrott, John Pettie, D. C. Read, T. M. Richardson, C. J. Richardson, and
important articles on Puvis de Chavannes and T. Rowlandson.

Amongst other artists who have been the subject of particular biographies should
be mentioned Geo. Pinwell by the Editor, F. H. Potter by Mr. J. Baillie, E. T. Parris
by Mr. W. Roberts, S. W. Reynolds the engraver by Mr. Alfred Whitman of the Print
Room, British Museum, Pater by Mr. Staley, Room and Roden by Mr. Chamberlain of
the Birmingham Art Gallery, G. Piranesi by Mr. Oldmeadow.'and also J. T. Nettleship
and Sir Noel Paton.

American artists have not been overlooked, and biographies of T. Nast, J. Neagle,
C. Pearson, W. Page, C. W. Peale, R. Peale, W. L. Picknell, and P. F. Rothermel may
be taken as illustrative of the attention given to this section of the book.

Mr. Pinkerton is responsible for very many of the notices of foreign painters, and
beside the many names that have been mentioned, there appear in the long roll of the
rank and file the names of Paul J. Naftel, L. von Nagel, J. C. Nattes, C. G. Naumann,
J. Navlet, V. Navlet, F. H. Nazon, B. Neher, L. Neubert, E. N. Neureuther, L.

In all there are more than three hundred and fifty new biographies in this
volume, a far larger number than in any of the preceding volumes; while, in
addition to these, many other biographies have been revised and amplified, and
upwards of one thousand corrections and emendations have been introduced.



NOTICE



As confusion frequently arises in the alphabetical arrangement of biographical dic-
tionaries owing to the arbitrary mode in which it has been customary to deal with such
names as are preceded by an article or a preposition, or by both, it has been thought
desirable in this work to adopt the grammatical principle sanctioned by the Belgian
Academy in regard to the names of Flemish and French (or Walloon) origin, which
are included in the ' Biographie Nationale.'

The arrangement therefore is according to the following plan :

I. Every artist having a surname is placed under that surname, cross-references being
given from assumed names and sobriquets whenever needed.

Thus, Correggio is entered under Allegri, Antonio.

Pinturicchio Biagio, Bernardino.

Sebastiano del Piombo Luciani, Sebasliano.

Tintoretto Robusti, Jacopo.

(a) When the prefix to a name is an article it remains annexed, because it is an integral
part of the name ; but when it is a preposition, it is disunited, because it indicates the place
of origin or birth of the artist, or a territorial or seigneurial name. Thus, the French Le
and La, and the equivalent Dutch and Flemish De are retained ; while the French de, the
Italian da and di, the German von, and the Dutch and Flemish van are rejected.

Thus, Charles Le, Brun is entered under Le Brun.

Jan David De Heem De Heem.

Jean Franfois de Troy Troy.

Heinrich Maria von Hess Hess.

Isack van Ostade Ostade.

(b) When the prefix is an article joined to or preceded by a preposition, as in the French
du, de la, and des, the Italian del, della, degli, dai, dayli, and dalle, the Spanish del and de
la, and the Dutch van der, van de, van den, and ver (a contraction for van der), it cannot be
disunited from the proper name, because the particles together represent the genitive case
of the article.

Thus, Alphonse du Fresnoy is entered under Du Fresnoy.

Laurent de La Eire De La Hire.

Niccolo dell' Abbate DeW Ablate.

Girolamo dai Libri Dai Libri.

Willem van de Velde Van de Velde.



x NOTICE.

(c) English artists bearing foreign names are placed under the prefix, whether it be an
article or a preposition.

Thus, Peter De Wint is entered under De Wint.

(d) Proper names with the prefix St. are placed as though the word Saint were written
in full : and similarly, M' and Me are arranged as Mac.

(e) Foreign compound names are arranged under the first name.

Thus, Bapliste Aubry-Lecomte is entered under Aubnj-Lecomte.

Juan Cano de Arevalo ,, Cano de Arevalo.

II. An artist having no surname is placed under the name of the place from which he
is known, or failing that, under his own Christian name

Thus, Andrea da Bologna is entered under Bologna.

Andrea del Sarto Andrea.

Fra Bartolommeo Bartolommeo.

III. Anonymous artists known as the Master of the Crab, the Master of the Die, the
Master of the Hat-Trap, will be found under the common title of Master.

NABHOLZ, JOHANN CHRISTOPH, a painter and
engraver, born at Regensburg in 1752, died in
1796. He painted principally portraits, among
them those of the Czarina Catherine II. ; and of
many of her nobility. Some of his portraits and
other subjects he engraved himself.

grapher, was born at Bodenmais, in Lower Bavaria,
in 1799. He studied in the Academy at Munich,
and was employed in 1823 as flower and fruit
painter at the Royal China Manufactory of that
city. In 1827 he quitted this employment to
devote himself to portraiture in water-colour and
miniature, and the study of architectural per-
spective. His portraits of the royal family are finely
executed, while among his perspective views may
be mentioned, the ' Interior of the Court Church at
Munich.' He signed his works X. N. Nachtmann
died in 1846.

VOL. IV. B



NAECKE, GUSTAV HEINRICH, was born at
Frauenstein in Saxony in 1786, and was instructed
by Grasse, whom, however, he followed only in
his colouring. After having lived at Rome for
some years, he, in 1825, became a professor at the
School of Art at Dresden, where he died in 1835.
Among his paintings are :

St. Genovefa. 1816. (The Grand Duke of Coburg.)
St. Elizabeth. 1826. (Ifaumturg Cathedral.)
