THE GROSVENOR GALLERY.
found by the physician Hippocrates, when he visited him
in his solitude near Abdera.
71 Diogenes.— He is in the act of throwing away his cup
as a superfluous luxury, on seeing a boy drink out of his
hand; two Athenians are standing by. The treatment is
at the same time humourous and picturesque, but wholly
without the poetical character of the former picture. In
both the figures are life size. Formerly in the possession
of Bouchier Cleeve, Esq., of Foots Cray.
A smaller picture of the subject of Diogenes and his
cup, and quite different in the composition, is engraved
after Salvator Rosa.
Etched by Salvator Rosa himself.
72 The three Marys at the Tomb.—An angel seated
on the edge of the tomb, points upwards. “ He is not here,
for he is risen.” Four figures, full length, less than life.
C. 4 ft. 4 in. by 3 ft. 1^- in.
73 A Faun in a Landscape.—A small picture.
74 Portrait of Salvator Rosa.—Half length, the figure
turned away, looking round at the spectator. He holds a
pen in his right hand, and papers in his left.* Salvator
was a poet and musician, as well as a painter. There is here
a good deal of the keen fiery look which we should attribute
to the character of the man, but it is not equal to the por-
trait of Salvator which is in Lord Lansdowne’s collection.
C. 4 ft. 5 in. by 3 ft. 1 in.
SASSO FERRATO (Gio Battista Salvi), b. 1605; d. 1685. [A
weaker Carlo Dolce, and in bis time a popular manufacturer of
Madonnas.]
75 The Virgin and Child, with St. John.
SCHIDONE (Bartolomeo), b. 1560; d. 1616. [School of Modena.
He imitated Correggio in his mode of treatment, but in conception
belongs more to the naturalisti. See p. 126.
* This is the same portrait which was engraved for Lady Morgan’s “ Life of
Salvator Rosa.”
