_Salvator Rosa_ (Neapolitan: 1615-1673). _See under 84._
For the subject of Tobias, who is in the water holding the fish,
see 781. The wild rocky landscape conveys a general sense of savage
power. Salvator, says Ruskin, is "a good instance of vicious
execution, dependent on too great fondness for sensations of power,
vicious because intrusive and attractive in itself, instead of being
subordinate to the results and forgotten in them" (_Modern Painters_,
vol. i. pt. i. sec. ii. ch. ii. § 9).
