canvas, H. 4 ft. 11 in. × 7 ft. The Goddess of Discord choosing
the apple of contention in the Garden of the Hesperides. The three
daughters of Hesperus, Ægle, Hespere, and Erytheïs, dwelt in the
garden, where they had charge of the tree of the golden apples, the
gift of Earth to Juno on her wedding day. The Hesperides and the
garden were guarded by the dragon Ladon, destroyed by Hercules in
his eleventh labour. The Goddess of Discord, not having been invited
to the marriage feast of Peleus and Thetis, procured one of these
apples, and writing upon it, “For the most beautiful,” threw it
among the guests at the feast. It was claimed by Juno, Minerva, and
Venus. Jupiter, to end the strife, ordered that the dispute should be
settled by Paris, the shepherd of Mt. Ida. The Judgment of _Paris_,
who awarded it to Venus, that goddess having promised him Helen of
Sparta for his wife, led to the Trojan war. In Turner’s picture, a
glorious mountain landscape, with the River Lethon and nymphs in
foreground, the Goddess of Discord is seen receiving the apple from
the Hesperides; in the background, the fiery dragon is lying at
length along the summit of a lofty crag. British Institution, 1806.

GOES, HUGO VAN DER, born in Ghent about 1430, died in the Rooden
Cloister, near Brussels, in 1482. Flemish school; history and
portrait painter. In 1465 he was a member, and in 1473–75 dean,
of the painters’ guild at Ghent, where, in 1468, he assisted in
preparing decorations for the marriage of Charles the Bold and
Margaret of York. About 1475 he took refuge in the Rooden Cloister,
of the Augustine Choir-Masters, whence, in 1479–80, he was called to
Louvain, as one of the greatest painters in the country, to value an
unfinished picture by Dierick Bouts. About 1481 he became insane.
The one authentic picture by Hugo van der Goes is the altarpiece
in the Hospital of S. Maria Nuova, Florence, which was ordered at
Bruges by Tommaso Portinari, and painted about 1470–75. The middle
picture represents the Adoration of the Shepherds; on the wings are
the portraits of Tommaso Portinari and his two sons, presented by
SS. Matthew and Anthony, and of Folco Portinari, with his wife and
daughter and their patron saints, Margaret and Mary Magdalen. Heads
earnest and severe, draperies broken into stiff folds, colour wanting
in harmony, cold, though clear in tone. Attributed to him is also an

GOLTZIUS, HENDRIK, born at Mühlbrecht, Duchy of Jülich, in Feb.,
1558, died in Haarlem, Dec. 29, 1616, or Jan. 1, 1617. Dutch
school; history, portrait, and landscape painter, although his
great reputation rests upon his skill as an engraver, which was
exceptional. He did not begin to paint until he was forty-two
years old. Unhappily married to a rich widow much older than
himself, he lost his health, and by the advice of his physicians
travelled through Germany (1590), then went to Rome and (1592) to
Naples. After his return to Haarlem he suffered from the harsh
climate and gradually declined. He was a versatile, skilful, and
extravagant mannerist, who, like Spranger, delighted in forced
attitudes and unnaturally-developed muscles, and caricatured the
style of Michelangelo, whom he endeavoured to emulate. Works: Female
portrait, Brussels Museum; Adoration of the Magi, St. Maurice Chapel,
Nuremberg; Adoration of the Shepherds, Stuttgart Gallery; Ecce Homo,

slave of Murillo; learned his art by watching his master at work.
According to the story, he once ventured to finish a Virgin’s head
which had been sketched by Murillo, who thereupon encouraged and
aided him. His pictures, mostly religious subjects, are defective in
drawing and in composition, but are much like Murillo’s in colouring.
