  • 1820.10.07/ -. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Scene from Ossian -- Virgins of Inis Unah weeping over the Tombs of their Lovers -- (3 ft. 2 1/4 in. by 2 ft. 4 1/2 in.) This is a Picture of great pathos; -- in its general arrangement it is easy to see that the Poussins were present to the Painter's mind; but there is no servile treading in their footsteps; if he has caught some little of their manner, he has still more of their spirit (Wallis)|Scene from Ossian -- Virgins of Inis Unah weeping over the Tombs of their Lovers -- (3 ft. 2 1/4 in. by 2 ft. 4 1/2 in.)

  • 1820.10.07/ -. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[A Series of 12 Pictures, representing each Month, Hamilton, R.A. The finest illustrations that the Works of any Poet of any age have received are to be found in this Series; nothing but a congeniality of mind could have enabled the Painter to translate so adequately the feelings and imagery of Thomson into the language of another art. How seldom is it, that Artists, even of the greatest name, have succeeded in this difficult atchievement -- throughout the whole Series, Hamilton has contrived to breathe a pastoral simplicity, an Arcadian grace, that charms away all the grossness of rustic life and manners, and this he has done without the slightest violation of essential truth. N.B. These Pictures are engraved in the best style by the best Engraver of his day (Bartolozzi) (Hamilton, R.A.)|A Series of 12 Pictures, representing each Month, Hamilton, R.A.

  • 1820.10.07/ -. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Landscape -- (3 ft. 2 1/2 in. by 2 ft. 4 1/2 in.) A Picture in the highest style of art; we see at once that it has been the object of the Painter to impress the mind with a sense of sublimity and grandeur, and we feel that he has amply succeeded. In its composition and colour, in its forms, and solemn alternations of light and shadow, whether contemplated as a whole, or analized into its parts, we have still the same happy union of idealism with truth -- we have every where the same grand attributes, of Unity, Simplicity and Power (Bolognese)|Landscape -- (3 ft. 2 1/2 in. by 2 ft. 4 1/2 in.)

  • 1820.10.07/ -. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Landscape To pass eulogiums upon Poussin, would at this time of day be not only idle, but impertinent.

  • 1820.10.07/ -. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Calm -- (14 1/4 x 12 3/4 in.) This Prince of Marine Painters is (like Claude, in Landscape) unimitated and inimitable. If ever Artist held a "mirror up to nature," it was to V.D. Velde; he never satisfied himself with less than absolute truth, and the consequence is, that among his genuine Pictures there is not a single failure. In the Specimens before us, the gentle sway of the Vessels, the calm repose of the Air, the transparency and quiet motion of the Sea, are given with a clear yet soft precision that cannot be surpassed (V.

  • 1820.10.07/ -. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Virgin and Child -- (upright, 2 ft. 7 in. by 3 ft. 5 1/4 in.) A noble Specimen of a great Painter; the drawing of the Figure is equally faultless with the colouring of the flesh, the character of the Heads is fine, particularly the Infant Saviour's; there is in that a force and intensity of expression, that it required a master's mind to conceive and a master's hand to execute. In this Picture Caracci has realized the great object of his ambition, namely, the combination of Venetian colouring, with the grace, dignity, and expression of the Roman School (A.

The works of Plazer are seldom to be met with, and the adventitious value of scarcity becomes of some importance when connected with that of another and a higher order; his characteristics are originality, vigour, and a fertility of mind, amounting to exuberance. In these Specimens, which are probably the finest, but certainly among the finest products of his genius, he has evidently luxuriated in his powers both of conception and execution; the Canvas is filled to overflowing, and yet there is scarcely any thing merely conventional, absolutely nothing of common place; the necessary and inherent difficulties of his subject would have been more than enough for almost any other Artist, but he, in the consciousness of his strength, has gone out of his way to increase and multiply them. These Pictures are absolutely inexhaustible in incident and combination to an extent that no man will believe, till he has had the opportunity of returning to them again and again (Plazer)|The Feast of the Philistines, Sampson led in bound -- Judges, c. 16.
