DABOUR, JOHN, born in Smyrna, Turkey in Asia, in 1837. Portrait painter, pupil in Paris of École des Beaux Arts and of Jeanron. Studio in Baltimore, where he has resided many years. Among his portraits are those of Senators Cameron and Davis, Gov. Groome of Maryland, and Bishops Spaulding and Purcell. He exhibited in the National Academy, New York, in 1879, A Nymph.
DADDI, BERNARDO, died in 1380.
Florentine school; follower of Giotto. Vasari
calls him a pupil of Spinello, but this is
inconsistent with the only dates of his life.
He was admitted into the Apothecaries'
Guild in 1320, and was a member of the
Company of St. Luke in 1349. If, as Milanesi
suggests, Daddi painted (1346-47) the
Madonna of Orcagna's tabernacle at Or San
Michele, he has been greatly underrated.
The only extant frescos by him are in the
chapel of S. Stefano de Pulci in S. Croce,
Florence. They show the weakness of an
artist of a low order, but with some knowledge
of the laws of composition as known
to most of the inferior Giottesques. A small
Madonna by him, signed Bernardus de Florentia,
is in the Florence Academy.—C. & C.,
