A BIOGRAPHICAL DICTIONARY OF
SANTI, PlETKO, commonly called Pietro Bar-TOLI, r.nd sometimes II Pekugiko, from his birthplace, was born at Perugia, about the year 1635.
In the early part of his life he studied under Le
Maire and N. Poussin, and practised painting, but
abandoned it, to devote himself entirely to engrav-
ing, in which he greatly distinguished himself by
the merit and number of his plates. He died at
Rome in 1700. His plates are cliiefly etched, and
his point is extremely free and masterly. He some-
times marked his works P. B. F., but more fre-
quently Petr. Ss. Bart., sc- Romce. The number

SANTI, Sebastiano, a painter, born at Venice in 1788, was first a restorer of pictures, and then a painter in fresco. His works are to be found in the Venetian churches. He died in 1866.
SANTI DI TITO. See Tito.
SANTIAGO PALOMARES, Francisco Xavier DE, born at Toledo in 1728, was a learned writer, an ingenious emblazoner of state documents, and a skilful designer. He held an oBice as receiver of crown rents, and was also much emploj'ed in copy- ing manuscripts for the royal libraries. In these, and in literary pursuits, he was occupied for up- wards of thirty years. He assisted Bayer in the formation of the Index to the ancient Hebrew, Greek, Latin, and Spanish manu.scripts in the Escurial ; wrote on the topography of Spain, of her geograpliical position in America, and of matters ecclesiastical and political. But he is noticed here mainly for his artistic talents, as a p<iiiiter of landscapes, and an ornamental designer of frontispieces for books in Indian ink and with the pen. He painted in oil four views of Toledo, several portraits of distinguished persons, and a number of landscapes. He had a peculiar aptitude for the designing of frontispieces, and his talent was in great request by authors and publishers for that purpose. These will be found prefixed to many of the books printed in Spain during the second half of the last century. He died at Madrid the 13th of January, 1796.
SANTILLA2JA, Juan de, a skilful glass painter of Burgos, practising towards the close of the 15th century. Jointly with Juan de Valdivieso he worked in the cathedral of Avila, where he painted (in 1497) four windows by the ' Altar de Gracia,' one of which, representing St. John, still exists. He also painted scenes from the life of Christ for the windows of the Cloister Library, and a ' Resur- rection,' for the cathedral.
SANTINI. Two painters of this name were living at Arezzo in the 17th century. They were distinguished as 'the Elder' and 'the Younger.' Lanzi mentions a 'St. Catharine' by Santini the Elder in the cloister of the Conventual Friars of A rezzo.
SANTINO de' RITRATTI. See Vandi, Sante.
SANTIS, Orazio di, an engraver, probably a native of Aquila, flourished from 1568 to 1.^77, according to the dates on his prints, which are chiefly after the designs of Pompeo Aquilano. Bartsch has described seventeen prints by Santie, and supposes that there are others which have not come to his knowledge. Nagler has added 74 plates of antique statues at Rome, the joint work of Santis and Cherubino Alberti, [ uljlished in 1584.
SANTISIMO SACRAMENTO, Fray Jdak del. See Guzman, Juan de.
SANTO-DOMINGO, Fray Vicente de. This Spanish monk is entitled to notice as being the first instructor of Navarrete, called el Jfiido, and for his discernment of his pupil's talents at a very early age. He taught him all that he himself knew, and then very honestly advised his friends to send him to Italy for improvement. Four pictures in the church at Estrella were attributed to Santo-Domingo, but it is now ascertained that they were painted in 1659 by Navarrete, when, for the benefit of his health, he had permission from Philip II. to reside at Logrono. But Santo-Domingo painted the grisailles on the walls of the cloister, and other ])ictures which are in the convent of S. Catalina de Talavera de la Reyna.
SANTO, GiEOLAMo, (SoRDO,) called Girolamo di Padova, an artist of the 16th century, who painted the facade of the Cornaro Palace, several frescoes in S. Francesco, and, with Parentino, scenes from the life of St. Benedict in S. Giustina, all at Padua. A curious picture of a genealogical tree in the Santo is also ascribed to him. Of his hfe little is known, but his existence can be traced as late as 1546.
SANTO PERXNDA, was bom at Venice in 1566. According to Ridolfi, he was first a scholar of PalmaGiovine, and afterwards of Leonardo Corona, of Murano. He executed several considerable works for the Ducal palace at Venice and for the Dukes of Mirandola and Modena. There is a picture by him in the Ducal palace representing the defeat of the Turks by the Venetians. His ' Descent from the Cross ' is in the church of S. Procolo. He died in 1638.
