The Grapeseller. By J. Phillip, R.A., in Mr. Flatou's collection, 1861. Engraving of a painting. 'This picture, which forms part of the interesting collection by modem artists now exhibiting at Hayward and Leggatt's City Gallery by Mr. Flatou, and which we believe was expressly painted for that gentleman, is a fine specimen of the artist's vigorous conception and florid handling. The Andalusian beauty, with full, laughing eye, mouth entr'ouvert, and showing a row of pearly teeth, with black hair clustering in admired disorder beneath a gaily-striped kerchief, is the very picture of health and good humour. The stock of grapes speaks well of the vintage, and will ensure a ready custom. The colouring of this picture is of lavish richness; and its effect, as it glows in its place on the wall, is almost to warm the dull November atmosphere which surrounds us'. From "Illustrated London News", 1861.
