THE MINIATURE
M
INIATURE PAINTING is literally what the word signifies,
a "painting in little. "
Those who illuminated manuscripts were called illuminatori, and from the fact that the initialletler of a chapter was
painted red, the pigment of which was the Latin minium, or
red lead, they acquired the name of miniatori, from which the
word miniature is formed.
The true miniaturists were originally. then, the decorators
of old missals. After the invention of printing and . engaving,
this art entered upon a new phase. Copies in small of celebrated pictures were made, and the demand was particularly
great for portraits, and so we can trace the evolution of the
true portrait miniature.
As early as 1530, Hans Holbein was painting miniatures in
London, followed by Nicholas Hillard, Isaac Oliver, Peter
Oliver, Samuel Cooper, John Hoskins, Nathaniel Hone, and
Richard Cos way , who seems very near, for he only died in
1821.
In France, Jean Baptiste Augustin was miniaturist to Louis
XVIII, then came Jean Baptiste Isabey , and many others.
America can be justly proud of Edwar6 G. Malbone, born 1777,
and of his great friend, Charles Fraser. This period stands
pre-eminent for all that is best in the art Of miniature painting.
Photography checked miniature painting for a time, but of
late there has been a notable revival of the art. Ivory is the
medium almost universally elllployed now, though in old days,
vellum, copper, paper and silver were used. The miniature is
the sonnet of portraiture, limited and proscribed, and yet the
fewel of painting.
