  • 1832.07.28/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Samson and Dalilah. Here is a subject treated totally different to the usual manner. In this Picture the humorous Artist has inculcated a great moral lesson, in the fate of Samson, who appears on his knees, just "shorn of his strenth," while "harlot Delilah" is busy with the money which she has received as his price. The story is told much in the way that Hogarth would have treated it, but painted in a manner that that artist could not attain to. It is a singularly fine specimen of the Master, painted in his best time, and contains all his excellencies (Jan Steen)|Samson and Dalilah.

  • 1832.07.28/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[The Dead Christ, and the Marys. A splendid specimen of the combined talents of these great Artists, and, for feeling and vigour of pencil, may be considered not unworthy of being placed in competition with the celebrated picture of the same subject, though differently treated, by their brother Annibale, and now in the collection of the Earl of Carlisle (Ludovico Caracci)|The Dead Christ, and the Marys.

  • 1832.07.28/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[The Prodigal Son. This noble gallery picture displays a grandeur of conception, and greatness of execution, that entitles it to considerable distinction: the composition is masterly and striking -- the drawing correct and beautiful -- the finishing elaborate, and such as is seldom seen in so grand a performance. The poor prodigal, corrected of his vices, returns humiliated to the house of his affectionate father, who, with the rest of the family, come out to meet him. The Head of the Mother, in particular, merits attention, as finely possessing a mixed feeling of pity and delight. The bold management of the chiaro-scuro, for which this celebrated Artist was distinguished, gives a powerful effect to the figures, and shews the architectural back-ground to great advantage (Cavaliere Matta Preti, called Calabrese)|The Prodigal Son.

  • 1832.07.28/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[St. Mary of Egypt, borne up to Heaven by a beautiful group of infant Angels. The character of St. Mary, who lived forty years in the Deserts a life of fasting and mortification, is finely conceived, and so expressed as to produce the most awful effect upon the spectator. It is supposed to have been painted for Leo X, when Cardinal, whose portrait is introduced in the lower part of the picture. Vasari speads with admiration of the mastery observable in several pictures which this great Artist left at his death prepared with browns. One of these of superlative excellence was celebrated in the Gallery of Florence. It is on very thick panel, and appears to be unfinished, having apparently in some parts received only a second coat of paint, though the head of St. Mary is nearly finished, with a tone of colouring, and lightness of pencil, somewhat resembling the latter works of Guido. -- Raffaelle, during his stay in Florence, improved in his colouring under the tuition of the Frate, to whom, in return, it is said, he taught the rules of perspective (Frate Bartolomeo)|St. Mary of Egypt, borne up to Heaven by a beautiful group of infant Angels.

  • 1832.07.28/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Christ bearing his Cross. This sublime Picture of the Spanish school, is alone sufficient to justify the appellation given to this highly-distinguished Artist, in his own country, of the "Divine Morales." Specimens of this Master are very rare. The altar-piece of Magdalen Chapel at Oxford is generally attributed to him and therefore particular attention is invited to this picture. The meekness and resignation pourtrayed in the suffering countenance of the Saviour, must strike every beholder, and we think it will be allowed to surpass the Oxford altar-piece, favourite as it is in that University. -- From the Calonne Collection (Morales)|Christ bearing his Cross.

  • 1832.07.28/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[The Virgin and Child; with a Landscape back-ground. This Artist was one of the earliest of the Florentine School, preceding the great Leonardo Da Vinci, who worked upon the same principle, and formed his style upon that of Giotto. The faces of the Mother and Child are full of Divine expression; the outline of the figures drawn with a delicate pencil; and nothing can exceed the truth of the miniature landscape in the back-ground.
