 in woods. Linntcus faw it only in the collcftion of phmts 

 from Kamfchatka, fubmitted to iiis infpcftlon by DemidofF, 

 and defcribed in the 2d voUmieof the jimtenitnta ylcademicir; 

 for there is no fpocimen in his own herbariui'i. The root is 

 tuberous, and fomewhat creeping, perenniaU Stiins above 

 a foot high, ereft, limple, leafy, fmooth and /lender. Leaves 

 all teniate, (lightly hairy, paler bi.-neath ; the leaflets lome-

 gularly notched, an inch or an inch and half in length ; the 

 lateral ones often deeply divided ; fo tliat they much re-

 radical leaves have long (\i;ndcv footjlalis ; tliofe on t!ie Hem

 long, alternntely branched ; the branches corymbofe, each 

 bearing from three to fix or feven very fmall greenifli-wiiite

 and toothed. Stem leafy. Panicle compound, divaricated ; its 

 branches fomewhat fpiked. — Found on tiie mountains of South 

 Carolina,floweringin May. Root perennial. Stem a yard high. 

 The appearance of the plant is juftly compared by Ventenat 

 to Splrira Animus. The lea'ves confdl of nine large ovate 

 leajlets, (lightly hairy, partly lobed, and all llrongly toothed, 

 or notched. Flowers very fmall, ycllowifh-white, ahnoil 

 feffilc, difpofed in numerous long clufters, forming a large, 

 fpreading, repeatedly branched /irjn/c/i'. The petals in Ven- 

 tenat's figure are narrow, elliptic-lanceolate. Purfli fays 

 they are fometimes wanting. Tiie appearance of the capfule 

 in that figure is very different from the other fpecies, and 

 the valves are of equal length. This plant is faid to have 

 proved biennial in the garden of Malmailon ; but it may 

 ftill be perennial in its native country. We have feen no 

 fpecimen, nor has this curious fpecies, any more than the 

 laft, yet found its way into the Englifh gardens. 



TIARINI, Alessandro, in Biography, an hiltorical 

 painter, who was born at Bologna in 1577. He was firft a 

 difciple of Profpero Fontana, but on the death of that mafter, 

 he received inf'-uiSions from Bartolomio Cefi, from whom, 

 being obliged to leave Bologna on account of a quarrel, he 

 went to ftudy under Padignano at Blorence. After fome 

 time, about ftven years, as the influence of the circumftance 

 which had driven him from his native city fubfided, he ven- 

 tured to return there, and became a pupil of. the Caracci ; 

 and he principally attached himfelf to Ludovico, more for 

 the -improvement of his ftyle, than for practice. 



He had, during his refidence at Florence, acquired con- 

 fiderable fam^-, and painted feveral pictures for churches and 

 convents in places within and round about that city. On 

 his return to Bologna, his talents acquired him confiderable 

 employment there, and many of his principal works ftill 

 adorn its public edifices. Ferdinand, duke of Mantua, in- 

 vited him to take up his refidence with him ; fat to him for 

 bis portrait, is did all the princes of his family, and many of 

 the nobles of his court. , 



The colouring adopted by Tiarini in his bed time is clear 

 and rich ; h:. defign tafteful and agreeable, though of a ferious 

 call ; and h's expreffion jult and natural : and there are not 

 many artifts who have have done more credit to the Bolognefe 

 fchool. He died in 1668, at the advanced age of 91. "

TIBALDI, Pei.i.eghino, in Bicgrapliy, was born at Bo- 

 logna in 1527. He was the pupil of Bagnacav;Jlo, and 

 copied with much attention the works of Vafari, in the 

 refedory of S. Michele in Bofco. At the age of twenty he 

 went to Rome, chiefly to ftudy the works of Michael An- 

 gelo. The pictures he produced at Rome obtained for him. 

 the patronage of the cardinal Poggi, who employed him in 

 ornamenting his Vigna, near the Porto del Popolo, with 

 works in frefco, and then fent him back to Bologna, to alTift 

 in the completion of his palace there (now tlie Academical 

 Inftitute), both as architect and painter ; and in both cha- 

 rafters it remains as the principal tellimonial of his powers 

 remaining in Italy. He alfo conllrufted and adorned a 

 chapel for his patron in the church of S. Giacopo Maggiore. 

 One of the paintings lie executed there was the Preaching of 

 St. John, and another, the Laft Judgment ; where, in the opi- 

 nion of the Caracci, he almoft equalled the majefty of Mi- 

 chael Angelo, and it was preferred by them to all the other 

 works of Pellegrino, and ferved them and their fcholars as a 

 model of ftudy. 



From Bologna, the cardinal fent him to Loretto, to fuper- 

 tend the ereftion of a chapel in the church of La Madonna, 

 which he alfo ornamented with ftuccoesaad paintings of the 

 Nativity, the Prefentation in the Temple, the Transfiguration, 

 and the Decollation of St. John. From thence he went to 

 Ancona, where he wrought in the churches of S. Agoftino 

 and Ciriaco ; and in the great hall of the merchants he painted 

 one of his moft celebrated piftures, the fubjeft of which is 

 Hercules overthrowing monftcrs. He alfo fuperintended, 

 as mihtary architect, the fortifications of the place, about 

 the year 1560; and two years afterwards vifited ^Pavia, 

 where he conftruAed the palace of the Sapienza ; he then 

 went to Milan, and there built the temple of S. Fidele, 

 and before the year 1570 was elefted architedl of the 

 cathedral. 



Here he difencumbered the dome of numerous Gothic 

 monuments, fepulchral urns and trophies, and cmbellifhed 

 it in their (lead with various chapels and a majeftic choir. 

 He foon after received a coramiffion from Philip II. to pre- 

 pare defigns and plans for adorning the Efcurial, both archi- 

 tectural and pittorial. He followed them to Spain himfelf 

 in 1586. There he fuperintended the work for nine years, 

 p;unting a great number of piftures, particularly fome in 

 frefco in the lower cloifter, whence he expunged the unfuc- 

 cefsful produftions of F. Zucchero. The fubjects were 

 from fcripture, of the Purification; the Flight into Egypt; 

 the Murder of the Innocents ; Chrift tempted in the Wil- 

 deriiefs; the Elettioii of the Apoftles ; the Refurrcftion of 

 Lazarus ; the Expnlfion of the Money Changers tiom the 

 Temple; and the Refurreition of' our Saviour. Befides 

 thefe, he painted during his refidence in Spain fcvcral pic- 

 tures
