LORRAINE —LOTTO. 377
ance was attractive, though his expression was grave. He suffered
much from gout, and was often unable to paint. It would seem that
he should have left a goodly fortune, but it was 10,000 scudi only.
It is believed that his charities to his needy relatives had made it
thus small. Smith’s Catalogue Raisonne gives a descriptive list of
more than 400 works by this master.

in a chapel of the choir of Cologne Cath. This represents (when
open) in the centre, the “ Adoration of the Magi; ” on the insides of
the wings, “ S. Gereon and his Warriors,” and “ S. Ursula and her
Maidens; ” the outsides of the wings, the “ Annunciation.” This is
a most interesting work; it is characterized by an ideal grace and
beauty, solemn and simple dignity, force and depth of tone, and has
a remarkably good color for a tempera of its age. In the Darmstadt
Mus., there is a “ Presentation in the Temple,” dated 1447, by Meis-
ter Stephan, and in the Coll, at Kensington, a picture of SS. Cather-
ine, Matthew, and John the Evangelist. In the Mus. of Cologne,
there is a Madonna, and another colossal “Virgin and Child,” in
the Coll, of the Archbishop of Cologne. Stephan may have been the
pupil of Meister Wilhelm; it is plain that he formed his style after
that master. There are other works executed by him and under his
direction, in the chapel of S. Maurice, at Nuremberg, and in the
Cologne, Munich, and Berlin galleries.
Lotto, Lorenzo, was probably born at Bergamo, although he is
