DARIO DA TREVISO, of Padua, latter
half of 15th century. Mentioned in accounts
of the Basilica di S. Antonio in 1446 as a
pupil of Squarcione. His only existing picture
is a Virgin of Mercy in the gallery of
Bassano, a very poor production, false in
drawing, dull and dirty in colour. He devoted
himself chiefly to the decoration of
house-fronts, and many examples of his industry
of this kind exist in Treviso, Serravalle,
and Conegliano.—C. & C., N. Italy, i.
350.
