1. NOTES OF 18441

§ 1. PARIS, Aug. 14th.-Note of the Louvre. Perugino [No. 1565: “The Holy Family”]. All the chiaroscuro of the faces is given either with pen or crayon, cross hatched like engraving; but with a prevalence of perpendicular strokes. The colour appears originally almost to have concealed this, but to have let it through with time. The outlines firm and hard with pen, and deepened with the brush in brown. Hair exquisitely delicate. It is generalised into soft masses in the greater part, but its extremities are bonâ fide gilt, by individual hairs, so as to look like golden wires,2
