PAINTERS AND ENGRAVERS.


to be the name of the master by whom we have two engravings marked /. I. CA, They represent 'The Nativity ' and 'St. Ottilia,' the latter, which is somewhat in the style of Benedetto Montagna, having the monogram reversed. He flourished early in the 16th oentm'y, and was possibly of the same family as Domenico and Giulio Campagnola ; but while they belonged to the Venetian school, his style is that of the school of Padua as formed by Mantegna.

CAMPALASTRO, Lodovico, was a painter of Ferrara, in which city there are several of his works : in the church of San Crispino, ' The Na- tivity,' ' The Repose in Egypt,' and ' The Adoration of the Magi ; ' and in San Lorenzo, ' St. Francis of Assisi.'

CAMPAJTA, Pedro. See De Kempeneer, Pieteb. CAMP ANA, PlETRO, an Italian engraver, was bom at Soria in 1727. He learned the use of the graver from Rocco Pozzi, and lived the greater part of his life at Rome and Venice. He died in 1765. We have the following prints by him :

St. Francis of Paola ; after Seb. Conca. St. Peter delivered from Prison ; after Mat. Preti. Portrait of Pietro da Cortona ; from a picture in the Florence Gallery. Portrait of Bernardino Barbatelli, called Foccetti.

CAMPANA, ToMMASo, was a Bolognese painter who flourished between 1620 and 1640. He was originally a pupil of the Carracci, but afterwards followed the style of Guido Reni. In the church of San Michele in Bosco, at Bologna, are two paintings by him representing scenes from the life of St. Cecilia.

CAMPANELLA, Agostino, was a native of Florence, who flourished about the year 1770. He engraved several plates representing historical and Biblical subjects. They are executed with the graver in a neat style, but the drawing is not very correct.

CAilPANELLA, An'gelo, bom at Rome about the year 1748, was a painter and engraver, and studied art under Volpato. He engraved the statues of the twelve apostles which are in the church of St. John Lateran ; and some of the plates for Gavin Hamilton's ' Schola Italica,' one of which is ' The Presentation in the Temple,' after Fra Bartolommeo. He died about the year 1815. Others of his engravings are :

Christ with the Disciples at Emmaus ; after Kaphael. The Massacre of the Innocents ; after the same. Psyche and Cupid ; after the same.

CAMPBELL, Charles William, an English engraver in mezzotint, was bom at Tottenham, .July 13, 1855. In 1870 he entered the office of his father, an architect and surveyor, and stayed there until 1878. In the meanwhile he studied Ruskin and practised drawing so far as his means and leisure would allow him. Finally he was intrusted by Mr. Bume-Jones with his picture of the ' Birth of Galatea,' to be scraped in mezzotint. The plate was published early in 1886, and was followed by an ' Ophelia,' from his own design, and ' Pan and Psyche,' again after Bume-Jones. All three were pure mezzotint, without adulteration by any other process. Campbell also scraped a mezzotint of Miss Ellen Terry from life, and at his premature death, which occurred on May 31, 1887, left several plates in various stages of completion.

CAMPBELL, J., was probably a native of Scot- land. He flourished about the year 1754, and en- graved a few plates after Rembrandt, in which he imitated the style of that master with considerable success.

CAMPER, Petrus, bom at Leyden in 1722, was a celebrated professor of anatomy and surgery, and an amateur painter. He succeeded in copying the works of Carlo Lotti and other Italian masters, as also those of Honthorst. He took lessons from Karel de Moor, and produced some cabinet pictures in the manner of that master; but most of his productions have the marks of imitation rather than originality. He published a work very useful to young students in painting. He produced also a few etchings, and displayed a good deal of talent in the application of his knowledge of drawing to the purposes of his profession. He died at the Hague in 1789.

CAMPHUYSEN, Dirk Raphaelsz, who was born atGorcum in 1586, is recorded as a painter of land- scapes with wild animals, ruins, and cottage in- teriors. Yet some authorities say that he never practised the art of painting, and that works cata- logued as his are by his son Govaert Camphuysen. Two moon-light subjects, in the style of Van der Neer, in the Dresden Gallery, signed R. Camp- huysen, are given in the catalogue to Dirk Raphaelsz : but it is more probable that they are by the hand of Raphael Camphuysen, a brother of Dirk, who was bom in 1598. Dirk Camphuysen died at Dokkum in 1627.

CAMPHUYSEN, Govaert, who was bom at Gorcum in 1624, made a citizen of Amsterdam in 1650, and died in that city in 1674, was an animal painter, whose style was influenced by Paulus Potter. A painting in the Dulwich Gallery of ' Peasants with cows before a cottage,' with a forged signature of Paulus Potter, is attributed to Camphuysen ; in the Rotterdam Museum is a picture of ' Peasants before an Inn,' signed G. Camphuijsen; the Brussels Gallery has an 'Interior of a Farm,' signed with his name and dated 1650 ; and a painting of ' Peasants and Cattle before an Inn ' in the Cassel Gallery is also attributed to him. In the Hermitage, St. Petersburg, are two Interiors of Cow-sheds, both bearing his signature. Govaert Camphuysen's works are scarce ; probably some of them are known as paintings by Paulus Potter ; and others are attributed to his father. Dirk Raphaelsz. CAMPI, Cavaliere Antonio, the son of Galeazzo Canipi, was bom prior to 1536. He wag an architect, sculptor, painter, and engraver. He received his first instructions from his father, and then entered his brother Giulio's workshop. He followed the style of Correggio, and painted several frescoes and pictures for the churches of Milan and Cremona, some of which have been engraved by Piccioni and Agostino Carracci. He and his brother Vincenzo Campi went to Spain in 1583, and painted for Philip II. at the Escorial. He also wrote a ' History of Cremona,' for which he engraved the topographical plan. He died about 1591. A ' St. Jerome ' painted by him for Philip II. is in the Madrid Gallery, and in the Brera at Milan is a ' Madonna and Child,' which was formerly in Santa Barbara in that city.

CAMPI, Bebnabdino, was bom at Cremona in 1522, and was probably a member of the Campi family, whose works are often met with in the churches of Lombardy. He was intended for the profession of a goldsmith, but on seeing the copies of two of the tapestries designed by Raphael, which
