• Notities

  • First edition, of particular note as the first appearance of any part of Vasari in English (the lives of Cimabue, Ghiotto, Lionardo, Andrea del Sarto, Raphael, Giorgione, Michael Angelo, Giulio Romano, Perino del Vaga, Titian and Donato, a sculptor [all spellings sic]). The preface contains brief remarks on the author’s English contemporaries such as Inigo Jones, Grinling Gibbons, Dobson, Walker, Riley and the miniaturists Oliver and Cooper. He intended a second volume on the lives of the painters from the Carracci onwards but this was never published. Following the preface are three dialogues explaining the art of painting, the history of painting and ‘how to know good pictures.’ Then, finally, comes the major section, the lives from Vasari.
