Inftead of the fhort account of the lives of the 



Painters by Mr. GRAHAM, which has been annexed 



to the later Editions of Mr. BRYDEN'S Translation, 



I have thought proper to infert, at the conclufion 



of this work, the following Chronological Lift drawn 



up by the late Mr, GRAY, when in Italy, for his 



own ufe, and which I found fairly tranfcribed amongft 



thofe papers which his friendfhip bequeathed to me. 



Mr. GRAY was as diligent in his refearches as correct 



in his judgment ; and has here employed both tliefe 



talents to point out hr one column the places where 



the principal works of each Mafter are to be found, 



and in another the different parts of the art in which 



his own tafte led him to think that they feverally 



excelled *. It is prefumed, therefore, that thefe 



two additions to the names and dates will render 



this little work more ufeful than any thing of the 



Catalogue kind hitherto printed on the fubject. For 



more copious Biographical information, the reader 



is referred to Mr. PILKINGTON'S Dictionary.
