LOMAZZO, GIOVANNI PAOLO, born
in Milan in 1538, died there in 1600. Lombard
school; pupil of Gio. Battista della
Cerva. Lanzi mentions several pictures by
him. His portrait, by himself, is in the
Brera, and there are frescos by him in S.
Marco. Painted but little, as he became
blind about 1571; best known by his "Trattato
della Pittura, Scoltura et Architettura"
(Milan, 1584), and "Idea
del Tempio della Pittura"
(Milan, 1590).—Lanzi,
ii. 500; Vasari, ed. Le Mon., xi. 275;
Ch. Blanc, École milanaise; Burckhardt,

LOMBARD (Lombardus), LAMBERT,
born at Liége in 1505, died there, August,
1566. Flemish school; erroneously called
Lambert Suavius or Sustermann; painter,
archæologist, and poet; pupil of Arnold de
Beer and of Mabuse, and afterwards in
Italy, where he accompanied Cardinal Pole
(1538), of Andrea del Sarto. On his return
to Liége he opened a school which was numerously
attended. Vasari calls him a judicious
painter and excellent architect. Colour,
chiaroscuro, and drawing good, but his
pictures are never quite free from Flemish
stiffness. Among his works, now very rare,
are: Deposition from Cross, National Gallery,
London; Martyrdom of St. Barbara,
St. Bartholomew's, Liége; Vision, Collection
of King of Holland, Hague; Last Supper
(1531), Scourges of the Almighty, Brussels
Museum; Madonna, Berlin Museum;
Death of Lucretia, Germanic Museum, Nuremberg;
Adoration of the Magi, Hermitage,
St. Petersburg; Adoration of Shepherds,
Vienna Museum; Portrait, Antwerp
