Note 1 — PART VI.
Charles Lock Eastlake translation
"Ardito veramente alquanto, sanguigno, e quasi fiammeggiante."—Zanetti della Pittura Veneziana, Ven. 1771, p. 90. Warm as the flesh colour of the colourists is, it still never approaches a positive hue, if we except some examples in frescoes and other works intended to be seen at a great distance. Zanetti, speaking of a fresco by Giorgione, now almost obliterated, compares the colour to "un vivo raggio di cocente sole."—-Varie Pitture a fresco dei Principali Maestri Veneziani. Ven. 1760.
