This celebrated Picture is well known by the fine engraving from it by Woollet, under the title of "The Meleager and Atalanta."

The superiority of Richard Wilson over his cotemporaries, is conspicuous from the fine poetic cast which he has always given to his studied compositions, partaking much of what is very properly termed le beau idéal. In the present small Collection, his works are put in competition with those of a most powerful opponent, and maintain themselves by means of this powerful aid (Richard Wilson)|The Boar Hunt.

  • 1828.04.21/ maison de ventes : Buchanan (William). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[This has always been considered to be the chef d'oeuvre of this master. -- It presents the amusing, varied, and interesting details of a Camp; and to be justly appreciated must be patiently examined. From the extreme point of view where the approaches to the place are distinctly described, through the whole gradations of space, the subject is filled with groups, each holding correctly its place in the line of perspective, all full of interest, and the figures executed in the most perfect manner. The capital works of this master are rare, and this may be ranked as the finest example of these (Lingelbach)|This has always been considered to be the chef d'oeuvre of this master. -- It presents the amusing, varied, and interesting details of a Camp; and to be justly appreciated must be patiently examined.

  • 1828.04.21/ maison de ventes : Buchanan (William). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Minerva between Mensuration and Calculation. This magnificent Painting in Fresco will convey a just idea of the great excellence at which the ancient masters arrived in this particular class of art. The grandeur of the design, the correctness of drawing, and purity of the style, must render it an object highly interesting to every admirer of works of a high class, and valuable as an object of study for modern artists. Although the art of painting in Fresco is little known to those who have not visited Italy, it is nevertheless worthy of remark, that the most capital works of the great masters executed at a period when the art itself was carried to the greatest height of perfection, were painted in this style. -- The principal works of Michael Angelo Buonarrotti, Raphael, Correggio, Julio Romano, &c. are painted in fresco (Paul Veronese)|Minerva between Mensuration and Calculation.

  • 1828.04.21/ maison de ventes : Buchanan (William). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[A Landscape. This eminent painter of scenery, -- truly English, -- is one of those who painted in rivalship with the immortal Wilson. Although his style is not so refined, nor his taste so poetical, as that of his cotemporary, still there is a power of execution, a breadth of effect, and a rich local truth, in the representation of his scenes, which rank him high in the estimation of the amateur of rural landscape. These three small pictures form a happy and interesting union of the relative excellencies of the works of these masters; they reflect a lustre on each other, without either of them suffering in its own particular style (Gainsborough)|A Landscape.

  • 1828.04.21/ maison de ventes : Buchanan (William). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[This beautiful small picture represents the effect produced at that period of the day when the sun is fast approaching the boundary of the horizon. The hazy vapour which arises at that particular period of a sultry afternoon is most admirably rendered in this little gem by this inimitable master of atmospheric effect. In two other pictures in this collection, Claude has with equal truth represented an early morning, the sea-breeze in which is quite refreshing, and the broad light of a sunny day, equally excellent in itself. In these he is clear and silvery; in this little example he is mellow and vapoury. It formed one of the principal cabinet ornaments of the tasteful and well selected collection of the late Lord Kinnaird (Claude)|This beautiful small picture represents the effect produced at that period of the day when the sun is fast approaching the boundary of the horizon.

  • 1828.04.21/ maison de ventes : Buchanan (William). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[This classical and chaste composition, principally taken from a portion of the beautiful scenery in the Bay of Naples, was always esteemed at Rome to be one of his most capital pictures. It formed part of the celebrated Collection of the Prince Colonna; and from its pure and fine effect, as well as preservation, it would form a desirable companion to the Sea-port by Claude, known by the name of "The St. Ursula," in the National Gallery. The subject is morning, with a rich and verdant foreground, and a sea view in the distance, represented with a truth of effect which rivals nature itself, -- indeed it can scarcely be imagined possible for colours to give the effect of daylight so perfectly as is done in this picture. It can only be compared to seeing nature from a window; as no material means are perceptible by which the illusion of a pure atmosphere has been so accomplished (Claude Lorrain)|This classical and chaste composition, principally taken from a portion of the beautiful scenery in the Bay of Naples, was always esteemed at Rome to be one of his most capital pictures.

  • 1828.04.21/ maison de ventes : Buchanan (William). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Pomona. This capital painting, in Fresco, possesses that harmony and breadth of effect which is always so conspicuous in this master's great works, and which, in point of splendour of colouring, places him on a par with Titian. The wonderful rotundity of form of the principal figure in this picture, produced by invisible gradations of colour, without the intervention of any positive shadows, cannot escape the observation of the connoisseur. The Venetian school in this respect must be allowed to take the lead of all others, while it offers an example well worthy of imitation. It is only, however, in the works of this master, like those now brought forward, that this great excellence can be sufficiently appreciated (Paul Veronese)|Pomona.
