BOSCH — BOSIO.
picture. He was represented on horseback, and the horse was done
by Peter van Bloemen. His pictures were well arranged, his heads
had life and expression, and his color was warm. Antwerp Mus.,
No. 448, “ Reception of a Burgomaster of Antwerp in the younger
Guild of Cross-bow Shooters.”
Boschaert, Nicholas, born at Antwerp, 1696. A fine painter of
flowers and fruits.
Boschi, Fabrizio, born at Florence (1570-1642). A pupil of
Domenico Passignani. At nineteen he surprised the artists of his
day by his excellence. The “ Martyrdom of SS. Peter and Paul,”
painted for the Certosa at Florence, and an “ Assumption of the
Virgin ” in the ch. of the Convent of S. Lucia, are among his best
works.
Boschi, Francesco, born at Florence (1619-1675). An excellent
portrait painter.
Boschini, Marco, born at Florence, 1613. Pupil of Palma, and
an imitator of II Tintoretto. His “ Last Supper,” in the Sacristy of
S. Girolamo, at Venice, is one of his best works. He was a dis-
tinguished engraver, and wrote a book called “La Carta delNavegar
Pittoresco.” He signed his plates Marcus Boschinius.
Boscoli, Andrea, born in Florence (1550 7-1606). Scholar of
Santo de Titi. Painted history with some merit, also portraits with
good success; that of himself is in the Florentine Gall.
Boselli, Antonio, flourished about 1500. Little is known of his
life. He was a sculptor and painter. At Bergamo, believed to have
been his native place, in the ch. of S. Cristoforo, there is a picture
of “ SS. Peter, Paul, and Luke,” inscribed, Hoc opus Antonium scito
pinxisse Bosellum, die 23 Februarii, 1509. In the ch. of the Augus-
tines there are other works of his.
Boselli, Felice, born at Piacenza (1650-1732). He copied the
old masters to perfection, and his copies are numerous, but are
seldom attributed to him, as they pass for originals. He attempted
historical painting, but afterwards painted birds, animals, etc.
These pictures are much esteemed in Piacenza, and are in the best
collections.
Bosio, Francis Joseph, born at Monaco (1 769-1845). Pupil of
Pajou, but he formed his style by the study of the antique. He was
chief sculptor of the King of France, and his most beautiful works
are in Paris. He executed many busts of the royal family and men
of note. The bas-reliefs of the column in the Place Vendome were
from his designs.1 Hercules struggling with Achelous transformed
into a serpent, in the Garden of the Tuileries (bronze) ; the eques-
trian statue in the Place des Victoires; the statues of France and
Truth, at the grave of Malesherbes; the figure of the King of Rome;
and the triumphal chariot of the arch in the Place du Carrousel; the
nymph Salmacis, and a Hyacinth, in the Gall, of the Luxembourg,
