LANSDOWNE COLLECTION.
331
SIMSON (W.), now living, 1843.
170 A Dutch Family.—Group of a mother with her infant
asleep on her lap, and a girl standing before her with a
porringer: various articles of furniture, carefully and
minutely painted, particularly a chair, a cradle, and a
pitcher of blue earthenware. In the background, a glass
dooi' looking into a court yard. Signed with the painter’s
name, and dated 1838. An exceedingly good picture of
its kind; noi’ do I think the artist has since equalled it. B.
STANFIELD (Clarkson), R.A., living in 1843.
171 Landscape.—Citara, in the gulf of Salerno, looking towards
the coast of Calabria. A magnificent picture. The trans-
parency of the atmosphere, the movement of the waves as
they quietly roll to the beach, and the characteristic phy-
siognomy of an Italian town, were never more beautifully
and truly expressed. The whole glows with sunshine,
life, and air; and when the lapse of years has a little mel-
lowed the colouring, I can fancy nothing superior to it,
but Claude in his finest works.
1/2 Venice.—The Piazza of St. Mark.
173 Venice.—Entrance to the Grand Canal.
174 Venice.—View under an Archway.
175 View on the coast of the Adriatic.
176 View on the Mediterranean.
All these views, in Stanfield’s finest manner, form the
panels of the dining-room at Bowood.
UWINS (Thomas), R.A., living in 1843.
177 A Procession of Vine-dressers, in the Bay of Naples.—
Group of 16 figures in the foreground. Etna in the dis-
tance. A long, narrow picture, richly coloured. B.
178 Head of a Duenna.—Life size; in chalk. An exceedingly
clever drawing. L. H.
WILKIE (Sir David), R.A., b. 1785; d. 1841.
179 Spanish Monks; a Scene witnessed in a Capuchin convent
