SANTVOOKT, Dirk van, supposed to be the son of Anthonis Santvoort, an obscure engraver, painted history portraits somewhat in the manner of Rembrandt. He was practising in 1635 ; there are prints after him by Jonas Suyderhoef and Theodore Matham. A picture by him in the Louvre repre- sents 'Christ and the Two Disciples at Emmaus;' but his cliief excellence was in portraiture, as is 6hoTi in the group of four ladies in the Workhouse at Amsterdam. The date of his death is unknown. Fiissli mentions a certain S. van Santvoort as practisina: in Holland in the 18th century.
SANTVOORT, Pietkr, a painter of Haarlem. The only record of him now extant is the registration of his death in 1681, but a landscape in the manner of J. Van Aken has been attributed to him, and has been engraved.
SANUTO, or SANNUTUS, GiULio, an Italian engraver, was born at Venice about the year 1530. His prints are executed in a coarse, heavy style, with single strokes, without any hatching, and have a certain resemblance to wood-cuts : among them we may name :
Venus ami Adonis ; after Titian. The Marriage of the Virgin: after Raphael; with the engraver's mark. The monstrous Child, signed Jul. Sannutus Venet Fac. The birth of this monstrous child took place at Venice in 1540: the mother "was a German. Two winged Genii in the air supporting a globe, on which stands Cupid discharging an arrow to the left of the print ; no name of engraver. Dance of Bacchanals in a wood ; signed JuLirs San-NTTrs. F.

SARABIA, Josef de, a Spanish painter, bom at Seville in 1608, was first placed with Agustin del Castillo, and after that mastei-'s death in 1626, with Francisco Zurbaran. He chiefly resided at Cordova, where he painted many pictures and altar-pieces for the churches. He was not deficient in merit, but he took his subjects from prints by Sadeler, some of which were after Rubens, and imposed them on the ignorant as his own inventions. The best original work of Sarabia is the 'Flight into Egypt,' which is entirely his own composition. He died at Cordova in 1669.
SARACENI, (or Saracino, Saracini,) Carlo, called Veneziano, a painter, bom in Venice in 1585.

He returned to Venice, whither he had been invited to paint a picture for the council-chamber, but did not live to finish it. He died in 1625.
