The original drawings of Veronese are not easy to distinguish from the
work of his pupils and imitators. The four above named are all near his
manner; the first is the best, and seems by its precision of touch and
execution to belong to his early time; the second is probably school work;
the third apparently copied by a later hand from one of his pictures;
while the fourth by its style and form approaches the manner of the
younger Palma.
Jacopo ROBUSTI (Tintoretto).
Painter: Venetian School: b. 1519, d. 1594: pupil of Titian, greatly
influenced also by Michelangelo: worked at Venice.
195. Sketch for a composition of Christ descending into Hell.
1 rawn with the brush in bistre.
From the Mariette, De Fries, and Dyce collections.
Very vigorous and characteristic work, alike original in invention and
daring in handling (M. 403).
Jacopo ROBUSTI (Tintoretto) (attributed to).
196. Study for a figure of a rower.
Charcoal on greenish paper.

After the Venetians follow a few examples of the school which flourished at
Bologna at the close of the sixteenth century and beginning of the seventeenth,
and of which the chief masters were the Carracci, Guido, Guercino, and Albano.
Their methods in drawing were as eclectic as in painting. In landscape they
imitated the pen-work of the Venetians; in figure-drawing they worked com-
monly either in red chalk, in a manner borrowed from Correggio and his school;
or in pen and bistre; or else modelled boldly in chiaroscuro with a liquid brush
full of sepia.
Annibale CARRACCI.
Painter and etcher: Bolognese School: b. 1560, d. 1690: pupil of his cousin
Ludovico Carracci; formed himself afterwards on the study both of the
Venetian and Roman Schools: worked chiefly at Bologna and Rome.
197. Sketch for a composition of the Virgin and Child in the
clouds, adored by two kneeling saints.
Pen and bistre and bistre wash.
From the Lord Spencer collection.
(M. 248).
198. Sketch for a composition of Susanna and the Elders.
Pen and bistre and bistre wash.
From the Crozat collection.
An example of unusual spirit and feeling (M. 251).
