In the Catalogue sixteen pictures are assigned to Paolo Veronese. The _Portrait of a Lady and a Child playing with a Dog_ (No. 1199) is an early work. The _Disciples at Emmaus_ (No. 1196), which is signed “PAOLO VERONESE,” is another of the master’s imposing canvases, as also is the _Feast in the House of Simon the Pharisee_ (No. 1193), which was presented to Louis XIV. by the Venetian Republic in 1665, and was for many years hung at Versailles. This artist is also officially credited with the _Burning of Sodom_ (No. 1187), a _Holy Family, with St. George, St. Catherine, and a Male Donor_ (No. 1190), a _Holy Family, with St. Elizabeth and St. Mary Magdalene, and a Female Donor_ (No. 1191), a _Christ heeding Peter’s Wife’s Mother_ (No. 1191A), a _Christ fainting under the weight of the Cross_ (No. 1194), a _Calvary_ (No. 1195), and an _Esther fainting before Ahasuerus_ (No. 1189). The _Susan and the Elders_ (No. 1188) is a replica of a picture in the collection of the Duke of Devonshire. The _St. Mark crowning the Theological Virtues_ (No. 1197), and the _Jupiter hurling Thunderbolts on Criminals_ (No. 1198), were originally executed as ceiling paintings for the Doge’s Palace. The _Christ with the Terrestrial Globe_ (No. 1200) and the _Portrait of a Lady in Black_ (No. 1201) are only studio pictures. Little artistic ability is shown in the empty abstractions, and at times meaningless productions, of many of the late sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth century Venetian artists. Felice Riccio (Il Brusasorci the Younger) (1540-1605) is given as the painter of a _Holy Family_ (No. 1463); Alessandro Turchi (Orbetto) (1582-1648) of three pictures (Nos. 1558-1560); Sebastiano Ricci (1659?-1734) of four compositions (Nos. 1458-1461); Antonio Pellegrino (1675-1741) of an _Allegory_ (No. 1413); Alessandro Varotari (1590-1650) of an utterly uninspired _Venus and Cupid_ (No. 1574); and Pietro della Vecchia (1605-1678) of a dull _Portrait of a Man_ (No. 1576). A century later than the stupendous achievements of Tintoretto and Veronese the art of Venice had passed into decline, but a glimmer of the genius that had found expression in the gorgeously decorative art in Venice in the sixteenth century was yet to be reflected in the work of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1692-1769). His _Last Supper_ (No. 1547) was purchased for £400 in 1877, and his sketch for the _Triumph of Religion_ (No. 1549A) for £1200 in 1903. By him also is the _Banner_ (No. 1549), depicting on the one side _St. Martin saying Mass_, and on the other _The Madonna and Child_. An _Apparition of the Virgin to St. Jerome_ (No. 1548) is one of the less striking pictures in the La Caze collection.
