One frequently hears a work described as an enamel by H. Bone. There were two—Henry, the father, a Royal Academician, and Henry Pierce Bone, his son. There were also two grandsons of Henry Bone, viz., W. and C. R., who practised between 1826 and 1851. The latter of these contributed no less than sixty-seven miniatures to the Royal Academy. In 1801 there was also an enamel shown at the Academy by P. J. Bone.
A JACOBITE BADGE.
A. E. Chalon, R.A., was a miniature painter; he was brother to John James Chalon, R.A. Miss M. A. Chalon, the miniaturist, was a daughter of Henry Bernard Chalon, and no relation to the above-named Academicians.
Lawrence Crosse must be distinguished from Richard Crosse, whom he preceded by many years.
As we all know, many good miniatures were painted by Maria, wife of Richard Cosway.
There were two Collins, both admirable miniaturists, but no relation to each other, viz., Samuel, master of Ozias Humphrey, R.A., and Richard Collins, pupil of Jeremiah Meyer, R.A.
Samuel Cooper had an elder and less accomplished brother, Alexander.
Alexander Day must not be confounded with Thomas Day, nor with Edward Dayes, whose wife was also a miniature painter.
William Derby had a son Alfred T. Derby, a miniature painter like his father.
