_Carpatio_ (Vol. ii., p. 247.).--Your Querist must be little versed in
early Italian art, not to know that Vittore Carpaccio (such is the
correct spelling) was one of the morning stars of the Venetian school;
and his search must have been somewhat careless, as Carpaccio and his
works are fully described in Kugler's _Handbook_, p. 149., and in Lanzi.
Some exquisite figures of his, of which Mrs. Jameson has given a St.
Stephen in her _Legendary Art_, exist in the Brera at Milan. He is a
painter not sufficiently known in England, but one whom it may be hoped
the Arundel Society will introduce by their engravings. I cannot assist
J.G.N. in explaining the subject of his engraving. May _Cornubioe_ be by
error for _Cordubioe_?
