DUCHANGE — DUPATY.
His plates are remarkable for the effect which he produced by the
combined use of the etching-point and the graver. He reproduced
the works of Correggio with peculiar skill.
Duchatel, Frans, born at Brussels, 1625. Pupil of Teniers, his
works so nearly resemble those of his great master that they have
been mistaken for his. He had however been brought under the
influence of Van der Meulen in France, and was, all in all, more
independent in style than Teniers. His chief work is in the Mus.
at Ghent, and represents “ Charles II. of Spain receiving homage as
Count of Flanders from the Estates of Ghent, in the person of his
Stadtholder the Marquis of Castel Rodrigo.” This picture is signed
and dated 1668. It contains several most excellent portraits, and is
good in general effect and keeping. In the Antwerp Mus. the pano-
rama of Valenciennes has been called a Teniers, but good authorities
now assign it to Duchatel.
Dufresnoy, Charles Alphonse, born at Paris (1611-1665). A
very learned painter. He was classical in his taste, and after his
death his friends published his Latin poem, “ De Arte Graphics!,”
which was translated into English by William Mason, and enriched
with notes by Sir Joshua Reynolds. Dufresnoy went when quite
young to Rome, and became learned in antiquities, anatomy, and
perspective, as well as in classical literature. His works are scarce.
His subjects were landscapes, history, and architecture. They are
correct in drawing and carefully executed, but are too studied to be
pleasing.
Dunlap, William, born at Perth Amboy, New Jersey (1766-
1839). The versatility of his talents and the circumstances of his
life led him into so many different pursuits that it is difficult to
know whether to call him a painter, an annalist, or a theatrical
manager. He did however devote several years entirely to portrait
painting, and his pictures are numerous. The sketch of his life is
full of adventures and interesting stories. He should be mentioned
as one of the active men in establishing the New York Acad, of
Fine Arts, and indeed it is due him to say that he did much for
artistic and literary enterprise at a time when little thought or sym-
pathy was given to such matters.
Diinwegge, Victor and Heinrich. Two painters of the West-
phalian school. In the parish ch. of Dortmund there is what the
Germans term a “Holy Kith-and-Kin picture,’' by these artists.
It was painted in 1523, but seems about a century older in style and
excellence, proving the school of Westphalia to have been behind
others in Germany.
Dupaty, Charles Mercier, born at Bordeaux (1 771-1825). His
father designed to make him a lawyer, but after his death in 1788,
Dupaty studied painting. He was, however, compelled to enter a
regiment of dragoons, and did not resume his studies until 1795.
