RYCKAERT — SACCHI.

Ryckaert, David, born at Antwerp (1615-1662 ?). The third
painter of his name. He was instructed by his father, and devoted
himself to interiors with peasants, fairs, etc. His coloring is clear
and golden ; his heads are animated, and although inferior to Te-
niers, he often approaches him in excellence. The Vienna and Dres-
den galleries have fine examples of his works; in the former there is
a “ Village Fete,” and a “ Schatzgraberin ” (a seeker for hidden
treasures), which is very curious. The scene is laid in a cave lighted
by a fire, and Ryckaert especially excelled in firelight effects. In
1652 this master was Dean of the Guild of S. Luke, at Antwerp.
Ryn. See Rembrandt.
Rysbraek, Peter, born in Antwerp (1655-1729 ?). A pupil of
Jean F. Millet in Paris. He settled in Antwerp after the completion
of his studies. His principal works are landscapes with Biblical or
mythological figures. Such is a fine, large landscape in the Berlin
Mus., with the Baptism of Christ in the foreground. The Antwerp
and Dresden galleries have works of his, but they are not often seen
in public collections. He also executed six etchings, which, while
not especially attractive, are yet remarkable in composition.
Rysbraek, Michael, born at Antwerp (1693-1770). Son of
Peter Rysbraek and a good sculptor. In 1720 he went to England,
where he executed many monuments and statues still seen in the
churches of that country. They have no claim to extended notice.

Sabbatini, Andrea, called Da Salerno. Born at Salerno (1480-
1545). Son of a rich merchant who intended him for the same oc-
cupation, but allowed him to follow his desire to be a painter, and
placed him in Naples for instruction. Having seen some works of
Perugino’s he went in pursuit of him, but before reaching Perugia
was turned aside by the fame of Raphael, whose scholar and assistant
he became. His father’s death called him away from Rome, and he
settled in Naples, where his best works are seen in the Museo Bor-
bonico and several churches; they are rare out of that city.
Sabbatini, Lorenzo, called Da Bologna. Flourished about the
middle of the 16th century. A mannered painter of the degenerate
Bolognese school. A Madonna in the Berlin Mus. is one of his best
works.
Sacchi, Pier Francesco. Flourished about 1520. A painter
entirely wanting in flexibility and grace. His works are seen in the
Louvre and at Berlin.
Sacchi, Andrea, born at Rome (1598-1661). Pupil of Albani,
and a sincere admirer of Raphael. He was not equal to Giulio Ro-
mano in invention, but his color was good, and he practised a sim-
plicity of treatment which is the mark of great artistic power. His
