    • 1874 November 7, John Forbes-Robertson, “Art. Hans Makart's Picture of "Venice Doing Homage to Catarina Cornaro."”, in The Examiner, number 3484, page 1222, column 1:
      He may, here and there, have departed from the Italian type in his female figures — and elsewhere, perhaps admitted a little incongruity — the “ Doge,” for instance, is much too modernly respectable and proper, as the gondolier, on the other hand, is too Bohemianly theatrical in his air— []
