Légende

The late Mr. Salter, artist, 1876. 'Mr. Salter's name may not be familiar, owing to his having discontinued the practice of his profession in recent years; but in the last generation he occupied a conspicuous position in the world of art...he went to Florence...[where he became] a member of the Academy of Florence, with a professorship of History. After a sojourn of five years in Florence Mr. Salter visited Rome, and subsequently resided at Parma, where he sedulously studied the works of Correggio and executed careful and fine copies of the principal of them...On his return to England, in 1833, he undertook the large and elaborate historical portrait-picture commemorative of the annual "Waterloo Banquet" at Apsley House, which was immensely successful...He was a member (vice-president) of the Society of British Artists'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
