SCARSELLA, Sigismondo, called Mondino, painter, was born at Ferrara in 1630, and was educated for three years in the school of Paolo Veronese, of whose style he was a constant, though not a very successful, follower. There are many works by him in the public edifices at Ferrara, in which city he died in 1614. His chief picture is the ' Martyrdom of St. Catharine ' in the Costabili.

SCARSELLO, Girolamo, painter and engraver, a Bolognese, and pupil of Gessi, was practising about 1660. He worked for a time at Milan, and subsequently at Turin, about 1670.

SCHAARSCHMIDT, Friedrich, was born at Bonn in 1863, and studied at the Diisseldorf Academy and under Wilhelm Sohn. He painted landscapes, the scene of which was often laid in Italy, but is best known by his writings on artistic subjects. He was Conservator of the Diisseldorf Academy, and died in 1902.

SCHACHMANN, Karl Adolph Gottlieb, (GoTTLOB, Gottfried,) Freiherr von, painter and etcher, was born at the Schloss Hermsdorf in Saxony, and travelled much in Norway and Sweden. His pictures are to be found in Saxony. He died on the estate of Konigshayn in 1789.

In 1810 he went with his brother Rudolph to Rome, and joined the 'Nazarenes,'and in 1814 became a Roman Catholic. In 1819 he became a Professor in the Academy at Berlin, and acquired great reputation as a teacher. In 1826 he was appointed to succeed Peter von Cornelius as Director of the Diisseldorf Academy, whither his pupils, J. Hiibner, Hildebrandt, Sohn, and K. F. Lessing, accompanied him. He successfully reorganized the Academy, and in 1829 founded the Art Union of Westphalia. From 1836 onwards he was the object of many attacks, being accused of professional intolerance, and of favouring religious art to the exclusion of other genres. In 1840 he revisited Rome on account of his health, and in 1859 he resigned his position. Gifted with more taste than originality, and with more technical power than poetic sentiment, he paid great attention to the finish of his pictures. His portraits are among his best works. In 1842 he was created honorary Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Bonn, and in 1843 lie was ennobled. He was a Member of the Berlin Academy, and of the Institute of France.
