PAINTERS AND ENGRAVERS.


father's death he executed a number of pictures from Paolo's designs, and in his manner. Paolo's style was also closely copied by his brother Bene- detto Caliari, by his early companion Zelotti, and several other painters, so that many works are set down to him which are merely the productions of his school.

Paolo does not appear to have left Venice for any long period after he had once settled there. He journeyed to Yicenza and a few other places in northern Italy occasionally for the execution of commissions ; but, for the most part, all his great works were executed in Venice and for Venice. It is said he was invited to Spain by PhOip II. to assist in the decoration of the Escorial, but he de- clined the invitation, and devoted himself wholly to the service of Venice.

I^aolo Veronese is well represented in the National Gailery, where there are no fewer than six pictures, iucluding the large and important, but iminteresting, ' Family of Darius,' painted for the Pisani family. The 'Vision of St. Helena' (No. 1041), added to the collection in 1878, is a charming exan pie of his school. There is a noble grace and poetry about this work that leads one to regret that festive banquets and gorgeous altar-pieces had so large a share of his time.

Paolo Caliari died at Venice, April 19, 1588, and was buried in the church of San Sebastiano, which he had adorned with so many splendid works.
