AUGUSTINO, brother to Hannibal, was alfo a very good 

 Painter, and an admirable graver. He had a natural fon, call- 

 ed ANTONIO, who died at the age of thirty-five -, and who 

 (according to the general opinion) would have furpafled his 

 uncle Hannibal : For, by what he left behind him, it appears

GUIDO chiefly imitated Ludovico Carrache, yet retained 

 always fomewhat of the manner which his Mafter Denis Cal-

ALBANI was excellent in all the parts of Painting, and a 

 polite fcholar. 



LANFRANC, a man of a great and fprightly wit, fupported 

 his reputation for a long time with an extraordinary gufto of 

 defign and colouring : But his foundation being only on the 

 practical part, he at length loft ground in point of correitneis, 

 fo that many of his pieces appear extravagant and fantaftical ;
