The Virgin and Child and St. John, by Professor C. Verlat, in the International Exhibition, 1871. Engraving of a painting. 'Lengthened comment on this picture by Professor C. Verlat, which forms a conspicuous ornament of the Belgian section of the International Exhibition, would hardly be necessary, as it was reviewed by us when exhibited last year in the gallery of the New British Institution. We may take the opportunity, however, to remark that the artist evinces at the International Exhibition, and elsewhere, a versatility of power which has hardly a parallel in modern art. M. Verlat is best known as an animal-painter, and as such is unsurpassed by his many Belgian rivals, who seldom, if ever, venture out of their peculiar province; but he is equally at home in the most diverse subjects and styles. In the Belgian gallery at Kensington he has, besides the work engraved (which is more than half Italian in feeling and method), three animal-pieces in a vigorous, realistic, and thoroughly Flemish manner...The picture is the property of Captain E. Ottley'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
