In Charles-street, St. James’s Square, Hohn 
Hloppner, esg, R. A. one of the most-eminent 
portrait painters since the time of Reynolds. 
He might indeed have merited the praise 
of being the first, if-he had not been so close 
an imitator of the style of that great master, 
as it related to the spirit and elegance, of 
his touch, forcible effect of light and shade, 
picturesque back-grounds, graceful simplicity 
of attitude, and especially the richness and 
harmony of colouring, in which he certainly 
excelled all his catemporaries. In some 
of his best ce@loured works, such as the: 
Nymph, in the possession of Sir]. Lei- 
scester, the vivacity, truth, and delicacy 
ef the various fleshy tints, have scarcely been 
Surpassed by any master. But if he could 
boast of displaying much of the merit, he 
possessed the faults of his prototyne, especi- 
ally that of incorrect drawing of the human 
figure, a defect for which not even the colour- 
ing of Rubens, or Titian himself, cas ever 
atone.

froma branch of the family of Sandby, of 
Babworth, Nottinghamshire, and was born at 
Nottingham, 173%. In 1746 he came to 
London, and having an early bies towards the 
arts, got introduced into the drawing-room of 
the tower. Thence, after two years, he was 
appointed draughtsman under the inspection of 
Mr. David Watson, who was employed by the 
late Duke of Cumberland to take a survey of | 
the Highlands. During this excursion he 
made several sketches from the scenery 
of that romautic country, from which he 
afterwards made a number of small etchings, 
which were published in-a tolio volume. 
From this circumstance, perhups, we may ac- 
count for the holdand striking style oy which 
the paintings of this excellent artist are so 
peculiarly distinguished. In175¥ he quitted 
this employment, and resided with his brother
