GERIXI, LORENZO, Florentine school, beginning of 15th century. Son of NiccoK> Gerini and equally mediocre. A fair painter among the third-rates, and of considerable practice. His most important work is the Coronation of the Virgin, an altarpiece with predella, painted in 1440, in S. Domeiiico, Cortona. C. & C., Italy, ii. 2;!. GERIXI, NICCOLO^DI PIETRO, Flor- entine school, 14th century, died after 1401. He was a careful and diligent painter, but in colour wanting force and fusion. In his frescos he continued the school of Taddeo Gaddi, but, as compared with Agnolo Gaddi and Spiuello, his painting is lifeless and third-rate. His earliest and most important work is a series of frescos in the Convent of S. Francesco, Pisa, dated 1392. C. & C., Italy, ii. 19 ; Liibke, Gesch. ital. Mai., i. 151 ; Vasari, ed. Le Mon., ii. 197, N. 1. GERINO DA PISTOJA, Umbrian school (1502-29). Vasari says he was a friend of Pinturicchio, a diligent colourist, and a fol- lower of Perugino. His Virgin of Succour (1502) in S. Agostino, Borgo S. Sepolcro, shows that he was a fair copyist of his mas- ter when he painted it. His Madonna and Saints (1509), S. Pietro Maggiore, Pistoja, '. is a mixture of Perugiuo, Pinturicchio, and Raphael. He grew feeble later ; his Ma- donna and Saints (1529), Uffizi, Florence, is gray and dull, with none of his early rich- ness of tint. C. & C, Italy, iii. 349 ; Ch.

His- tory and genre painter, pupil of Paul Delaroche, whom he accompa- nied to Rome, and of Gleyre after his return from Italy. Failed to obtain the prix de Rome, but obtained a 3d class medal for his Cock Fight in 1847, and in- creased his reputation by his Anacreou in the following year. Then visited Russia, where he painted a successful picture of Russian Musicians, and Egypt, whence he brought back valuable material afterwards treated (1857). Since this period he has 128
