His experin>ents, however, though made with judgment, skill, and perseverance, failed in some instances ot success, through want of sufficient regularity and attention m observing and recording the results; so that he might repeat with accuracy and certainty, that which had procured the effect desired This he often regretted ; but nevertheless, even m his failures, there may always be traced a just intention, and true conception of what the art should aim at; and a comparison ot the state in which he found it, with that in which he left it, is alone sufficient to entitle him to the respect and gratitude of Us lovers and practitioners. To those who have seen the works of the immediate predeces- sors of this Artist, and view the splendid Exhibition which is now offered to the Public, and, at the same time, consider that these form only a^art of the superior productions of one individual, it may Be unnecessary to observe, that no painter ever raised the art from so low a state of degradation, to so high a pomt ot excellence, or has left more splendid and instructive examples for the imitation of his successors.

The Directors of the British Institution have, in pursuance of the Plan which they originally proposed, adopted those measures which appeared to them best calculated to facihtate the improve- ment, and lead to the advantage of the British Artist ; with this view they have set before him many examples of painting of the Foreign School, which appeared to them capable of affording In- struction in the various branches of his Art ; but in offering spe- cimens for his Study, they have not forgotten the Works of the eminent men which the British School has produced. Those of «Sir Jo^hm Reynolds displayed last year at the British Gallery, gratified every Lover of the Art; they exhibited the most brilliant glow of colouring, and the most facinating combination of Fancy and of Taste; they proved that England is a soil in w hich the Polite C C 10 3 Arts will take root, Houi'ish, and arrive at a very high degree of perfection: if further proof were wanting, it would be found in the varied productions of the Masters whose works are now exhibited. Hogarth adopted a new line of art, purely English ; his merits are known to the public more from his Prints than from his Paint- ings : both deserve our attention. His Pictures often display beauti- ful colouring as well as accurate drawing : his subjects generally convey useful lessons of morality, and are calculated to improve the man as well as the artist: and he teaches with effect, because he delights, while he instructs. It has been said of him, that in his Pictures he com^posed Comedies; his humour never fails to excite mirth, and it is directed against the fit objects of ridicule or contempt. The powers of his pencil were not perverted to the purposes of personal attack; the application of his satire was general, and the end at which he aimed was the reformation of folly or of vice. Many of the works of Wilson will be contemplated with delight —few artists have excelled hiui in the tint of air, perhaps the most difficult point of attainment for the Landscape Painter; every object in his pictures keeps its place, because each is seen through its proper medium. This excellence alone gives a charm to his pencil, and with judicious application may be turned to the advantage of the British Artist. The merit of his works is now justly appreciated ; and we may hope that since the period of his decease, the love and knowledge of the Art have been so much diffused through this country, that the exertion of such talents may never again remain unrewarded during tlie life of him who possessed them. c in The Pictures of Gainshorouslh as well as those of Hogarth, were drawn entirely from English nature. Among his Portraits, some will be found in this Exhibition to possess considerable merit, but his fame will rest chiefl}^ upon his other works ; in his fancy pic- tures, his choice was peculiarly happy — the characteristic air of his cottage children, the truth and spirit with which his animals are touched, his just representation of rustic scenery, the force of his colouring, and the skilful! management of his hght and shade, give a most captivating effect to his works, and place him indis- putably upon the highest eminence among this class of Painters. Zoffani has been thought to merit the attention of the public on this occasion, by the industry with which he has cultivated an in- teresting branch of portrait painting ; he may be called the Histo- rian of the Stage of Garrick. Those who remember that inimitable actor will be grateful to Zoffani, for the accuracy with which he has recorded all that it was possible to catch of his exquisite but evanescent art. These works will shew the young artist, that if so much may be done by care, industry, and a resolute attention to nature, without any peculiar degree of taste, or power of ima- gination, how much may be accomplished by the active exertion of minds more bountifully gifted. It is not proposed to point out particularly the various beauties displayed in the works of these eminent artists. It is sufficient to touch upon the most prominent ; the painter who studies them will discover many other excellencies which he may turn to his advan- tage: neither are the productions of these masters selected as objects of servile imitation, but as affording hints, and encourag- ing attempts, which are likely to lead to improvement. The pre- sent Exhibition, while it gratifies the taste and feeling of the lov^r of the art, may tend to excite animating reflections in the mind of the"artist if at a time when the Art received little comparative support such works were produced, a reasonable hope may be entertained that we shall see productions of still higher attainment, under more encouraging circumstances. The Directors flatter themselves that their endeavours have not been unavailing even in the short period which has elapsed since the commencement of this Establishment. The annual Exhibition of the present year evinced considerable improvement among the junior Artists : they trust that improvement will be pro- gressive. It is the anxious wish of the Directors to give publicity to the eminent works of the British Artist— to be justly appre- ciated, such works must be generally seen ; their introduction into our public Halls would be highly desirable; and the admission of proper Scriptural Subjects into our Churches, would surely, while it promoted the Art> advance the purposes of Religion. The fame of the deceased artist would thus be perpetuated, and the living artist would be prompted to his most strenuous exertions. CATALOGUE OF PICTURES BY THE LATE WILLIAM HOGARTH.

Xo gratify the public taste, and to animate the British Artist to exertion, the Directors of this Institution have, in former years, selected some of the best Productions of the British School; they now, with the same view, offer some of the most admired works of the Dutch and Flemish Schools, to the inspection and observation of the Public ; and they take this opportunity of acknowledging the readiness and liberality with which the Possessors of these beautiful Specimens of Art, have lent them for the purposes of this Exhibition. Whatever difference of opinion may exist, as to the best mode of directing the studies of youth to the attainment of excellence, all seem to agree that example is the most animating principle which influences their conduct. The Directors of the Institution, therefore, in submitting this Collection to the Public, do not pre- sent it merely for the purpose of amusing the curious, or of de- lighting the judicious ; they hope that such productions may excite in the British Artist the ardour of emulation. They offer them to him not that he may copy, but that he may study them. They wish C \ 10 ] hira to catch the spirit, rather than to trace the Hnes ; and to set his mind, rather than his hands, to work upon this occasion. They are fully aware how difficult is the task of those, who attempt to lay down precise rules for the guidance of the Artist : they know how uncertain are the steps by which the human mind IS led to the attainment of knowledge of any kind, and that excellence in the Art of Painting is not of easy acquirement ; that very much depends upon the Artist himself, and comparatively very little upon those who endeavour to assist him ; that skill is the recompense of patience, of attention, and of labour, rather than the work of instruction ; and that even the greatest facilities which can be given may produce carelessness and neglect, while diffi- culties and obstructions may excite industry, and lead to the attainment of perfection ; but though they do not attempt to prescribe rules, they may guard against errors. To a superficial observer, many of the great works before us may seem the result of genius without the aid of study. No opinion can be more fallacious; and to the Artist, no mistake more fatal. Genius and fancy, it is true, give the magical charm to the productions of Art; but those who think that genius and fancy will supply the place of care, of attention, and of industry, mistake the course they have to pursue. They try by a short road to arrive at perfection, and never approach it ; while those who travel diligently, and toil on the way, will probably arrive successfully at the end of their journey. Rubens would not have produced the works before us, without genius; but he did not throw aside rule and authority, until he had established himself upon their basis, nor until he had by practice and experience, obtained the just claim to pursue unrestrained his brilliant and successful career. In presenting this collection to the Public, it is to the works of Rubens, of Vandyke, and of Rembrandt, that the Directors desire particularly to call the general attention. Each of these Masters has his peculiar merit : and from each may be derived, abundant [ 11 1 sources both of study and delight. The genius of Ruhens was universal. He excelled in History, Allegory, Portrait, Animals, and Landscapes ; he seems to have had more variety and more playfulness in his pencil than any, other Artist. If sometimes he appears careless, it is never the effect of ignorance ; he knew that what he gained in correctness, he might lose in freedom ; and that freedom constituted one of the most fascinating charms of the Art. The Picture of the Bacchanalians is an example of his vivid and luxurious colouring; but brilliant as it is, it is still harmonious. And Moses raising the Brazen Serpent, and the allegory of Peace and War, are proofs that he could equally adapt deeper shadows and more sober tints when they were better suited to his purpose. For richness of colouring, grandeur of design, and facility both of invention and execution, no painter ever surpassed him. Although Vandyke was not endowed with the same fertihty of genius which characterized his Master; although he does not seem to have had the same confidence in himself, or to have dared to make the same bold and extraordinary attempts ; yet he possessed more delicacy of taste, and his Portraits are superior to those of Rubens. That of Charles I. in this Exhibition, shews how much delicacy of execution may be combined with breadth, and with dignity : no Painter knew better how to appreciate these quali- ties than Sir Joshua Reynolds, and he pronounced this to be the finest Equestrian Portrait which had ever been produced. As the splendid style of Rubens was well calculated for the Re- presentation of Battles, of Triumphal Processions, and of all sub- jects of shewy magnificence, so the manner of Rembrandt was equally well adapted to give interest and effect to scenes of more solemn grandeur. He has, perhaps, above all other masters, the merit of originality. In others, we can trace the road by which they travelled; but Rembrandt struck out a path of his own, which conducted him to a very high degree of perfection in his Art. In the skilful management of hght and shadow, on which so much of the sentiment of a Picture depends, he is surpassed by none; and if, as has been observed, the expression of his characters is some- times mean, it is always appropriate. In the practical part of his art, no Painter understood better the management of the back- ground of his Picture ; he could render it broad and quiet without barrenness, rich and active without disturbance, and he always made it most advantageously conducive to the general purposes of his work. The Wise Men's offering, and Anslo and his Wife, are among the finest of his works ; these, and the other productions of this Master which the Directors have selected, will be universally admired as a most captivating display of strength, richness, solidity, and truth. In addition to the works of these illustrious Artists, the Directors have endeavoured to obtain specimens, of the other most celebrated Masters of the Dutch and Flemish Schools. Among them Cuyp stands pre-eminent: the brilliant day-light of his Pictures enHvens every Collection in which they are found. Gerard Douw, Metzu, F. Mieris, Terburgh, Potter, A. Ostade, Teniers, J. Steen^ Berghem, Bothy and Vandervelde, display generally the most faithful and exact imitation of nature: they all shew what assiduity may accomplish; and some of them unite with care and industry several of the higher qualities of the Art. The Directors trust that this magnificent display, will be pro- ductive of much advantage. To shew what may be attained, is likely to lead to the endeavour to attain it. Great examples are the true promoters of emulation, the surest conductors to excellence. Who can doubt that the genius of a Wellington will create future heroes to achieve the most brilliant exploits for the glory of our country ? Let us hope that the genius of Rubens may produce Artists to record them, CATALOGUE OF PICTURES BY RUBENS, REMBRANDT.

We never read of the actions of any distinguished individual, without feeling a desire to see a resemblance of his person : we often imagine that we can trace the character of the man in the expressio n of his countenance ; and we retain a more correct re- collection of his actions, by keeping in our minds a lively impres- sion of his general appearance. In submitting this Collection to the inspection of the Public, we do not profess to exhibit the Portraits of all the eminent men who have distinguished themselves in the annals of British His- tory ; of some of them neither the Art of Painting nor of Sculp- ture has handed down to us any resemblance ; and of others, we have been obliged to admit that which is rather the received representation, than the well authenticated portrait. The prin- ciples we have kept in view, in making our selection, have been, first, the celebrity of the individual who is represented ; and. [ 14 1 secondly, the excellence of the painting itself. We have thus, in some instances, admitted the Portrait of an eminent person, where there is little merit in the performance ; and in others, we have admitted a well painted Portrait, where there was compa- ratively little celebrity belonging to the individual it represents. Our object in forming the Collection has been to interest, ra- ther than to instruct. We attempt to guide the Artist no further than to offer for his observation, from time to time, specimens, from which we think he may derive improvement, — the rest de- pends upon himself : as little do we enter into the examination of questions connected with the cultivation of the Arts, which have been often discussed, and perhaps never satisfactorily decided— Whether a School of Painting is more likely to create imitators than to assist extraordinary talents ; whether the facilities which it affords are of material advantage to the Artist ; whether real genius will not more probably lead to excellence by following its own course ; and whether it will not surmount all difficulties, and show itself still more transcendant, because it has had to contend with them — are questions we do not attempt to solve. Our purpose is to extend to a wider circle the love and admira- tion, and patronage of the Arts ; if we succeed in this attempt, we advance the cause we have undertaken. His Majesty, the illustrious Patron of our Institution, whose gracious assistance in furthering our general objects is so strongly exemplified in the present Exhibition, has done more to promote the Arts, than any Sovereign in Europe. In the encouragement which he has held out, munificence and taste have been equally displayed. His example will not only be admired, but followed : but we have also among us many other liberal promoters of the [ 15 ] Arts. In foreign countries, where the Sovereign is almost the only Patron, a work which he has noticed, finds at once a thou- sand imitators. Imitation is the consequence of such limited encouragement— the exertion of talent, in the particular line in which each individual excels, is the result of general and exten- sive patronage. With us, every Artist may pursue his own course ; for every man of genius and of talent will find his admirer and his patron. To increase the numher of such admirers, is the great object of the British Institution : we hope our endeavours have not been exerted in vain. No person of liberal and enlightened mind can doubt the use and the importance of encouraging the cultivation of the Arts. They are connected, not only with the comforts and amusements of polished society, but with the general inter- ests of the nation ; and we entertain the hope that the same energy of mind which characterises our countrymen, and which raised the glory of our Arms to its highest elevation in the late war, may carry the improvement of our Arts to the same degree of pre-eminence during the interval of peace. Attendants are placed in different parts of the Gallery to prevent any Person from touching the Pictures.

The person who holds the Helmet is Mons. de St. Antoine, who was one of the King's Equerries, and who had been sent to him by the King of France with a present of six hors€s. This Picture was bought at the Sale of Charles the First's effects, in 1651, by Rem6e Van Leimput, a Dutch painter, who paid for it ^200. ; it was recovered from him by pro- cess of law, after the Restoration, and replaced in the Royal Collection. 4 King William III. - - - Netcher. - G.

A wise and brave man ; of so much prudence and moderation, that he served during the Usurpation without becoming odious to the Royalists ; and accomplished the Restoration without confusion or bloodshed. He was liberally rewarded and honoured, as he deserved. After having in all his former life commanded armies, in his latter days he undertook the management of the Admiralty, and commanded the fleet with skill and credit in the Dutch war. C [ 18 ] No. 8 Charles Lord Mordaunt. - Dahl. - Earl of Liverpool. Born 1658; Earl of Monmouth and First Lord of the Treasury in 1689, and Earl of Peterborough in 169O; died 1735. No other person in modern times has been First Lord of the Treasury and Commander of Fleets and Armies. His great talents, his indefatigable activity^ his undaunted courage, and his punctilious honour, place him deservedly on the list of the heroes of our country. When Barcelona was capitulating before his intrepid assault^ and while he was discussing the terms at the gate, an account vvas brought that hij allies had forced their way into the town, and were committing every kind of violence on the unresisting inhabitants. Lord Peterborough asked to be admitted at the head of his army to save the town, Tlie Governor instantly complied. The allies were expelled ; the town saved from pillage; and Peterborough returned to the gate, and finished the capitulation, without the slightest alteration in the terms he had demanded. 9 Queen Caroline, Consort of George IL - - - HIS MAJESTY. 10 The Duke of Monmouth. - Sir Peter Lely. - Duchess of Buccleugh. James, eldest Son of Charles the Second, by Lucy Waters; born I649; created Earl of Doncaster, Duke of Monmouth, and K. G. 1663. He at first bore the name of Crofts, but after his marriage with the heiress of Buccleugh, assumed that of Scott. His intrigues during the latter years of his indulgent father, his sub- sequent rebellion against his implacable uncle, and his ultimate fate on the scaffold, are but too well known. He was the Absalom of Dryden's celebrated Poem, in which the sup- posed feelings of the country, by which this accomplished but misguided Prince was deluded to his fate, are beautifully described, Auspicious Prince, at whose nativity Some Royal planet ruled the Southern sky ; Thy longing Country's darling and desire ; Their cloudy pillar and their guardian fire ; The people's pray'r, the glad diviner's theme, , The young uier/s vision, and the old men's dream I Thee, Saviour, thee, the nation's vows confess, And, never satisfied with seeing, bless ; Swift unbespoken pomps thy steps proclaim, r And stammering babes are taught to lisp thy name !

This admirable poet, with whose works every body is acquainted, was born 1631, and died 1700. Irregular and careless as he was, his satirical and moral poems are unri- valled, even by Pope himself, whom he surpassed as muoh in strength and spirit, as Pope excelled him in elegance and accuracy. 17 Sir Robert Walpole. - Sir Godfrey Kneller. - William Baker, Esq. Born the 26th August, I676; Lord of the Admiralty, 1705; Secretary at War, I7O8, and Treasurer of the Navy, 1709. On the accession of George the First, he was made Paymaster of the Forces ; and finally appointed Prime Minister, holding that station, with the offices of First Lord of the Treasury and Chancellor of the Exchequer, till the year 1742, when he resigned, and was created Earl of Orford. He died 1745. His history is the history of England for half a century, and must be read there; his private life was amiable and benevolent ; his good temper was admired, even by his political enemies. He was a liberal patron of the arts; built the noble mansion of Houghton, and adorned it with a fine Collection of Pictures, which has been transported to Russia. Pope, who was no friend to Sir Robert Walpole, has recorded his social [ 20 ] No. qualities in four lines, whic^i, while they delicately allude to the imputa- tions against the minister, do justice to the man. Seen him, I have, but in his happier hour Of social pleasure, ill exchanged with pow'r. Seen him, uncumber'd with the venal tribe. Smile without art, and win without a bribe. 18 King George II. - Fine. - - Lord Bray brooke. 19 Richard Steele. - Sir Godfrey Kneller, - William Baker, Esq. Born in Dublin, 1671 ; Commissioner of Stamps, 17IO; Member for Stockbridge, 1713; Knighted, 1715 ; died 17S9. Memorable not only far discovering a new and most useful species of literature, but for having pursued it with so much success, that Addison alone in his own days could surpass, and no writer in after times has equalled him. His friendship with Addison was formed at the Charter House, and is immortalized in that admirable series of literary and moral Essays, the Tatler, Guardian, and Spectator; which will be read with delight, when the names of Whig and Tory, and the feuds of parties, in which they both took an active part, shall be forgotten. 20 Joseph Addison. - Sir Godfrey Kneller. - William Baker, Esq. Born 167S; appointed Secretary to the Regency, 1714; Secretary of State, 1717; and died 1719. Though all Addison's works are distinguished for admirable style, good sense, good taste, and good principles, and though he held high offices in the state, his fame stands principally on those Essays with which he assisted Steele in his periodical publications : there are perhaps no two men in English history' to whom our manners, our morals, and our religion, are more indebted, than to them. These Portraits belonged to the famous Kitcat Club; they are not offered to the public as the highest specimens of the Art of Painting ; but we could not omit the best representation we could find of these men of genius and good breeding, of wisdom and of wit, the friends of Pope and of Gay, of Somers and Godolphin. 31 King Charles I. demanding the five 1 , t-i o v • , X , f (^opleu. - The Solicitor General.

One of our gallant Naval Commanders; was appointed Admiral of the Red in 1709, and a Lord of the Admiralty in 1717. He was frequently employed in active service in the reigns of Queen Ainie and George the First, and evinced upon all occasions both courage and prudence. 25 George Lord Anson. - - Hoare. - The Earl of Hardwicke.

The most remarkable occurrence of Lord Anson's life was his circum- navigation of the, world in the years 1741, 1742, and 1743, made populai * See the Plate of Reference at the End of the Catalogue.

The naval glories of Lord Anson, though brilliant; fade away before the splendour of the triumphs of the late wars.

Born 1599; elected for the town of Cambridge, 1637 ; Protector, 1653; died 1658. Walker was the best Painter of this period; but Taste (as well as Wit and Gaiety) fled from England during the reign of Republicanism. 28 Samuel Johnson. - Sir Joshua Reynolds. - G.W. Taylor, Esq. Born 1709; died 1784. Such were the great powers of his mind, and the strength of his reasoning faculties, that he was gladly received into the society of all the most eminent men of the time in which he lived, in spite of awkward appearance^ forbidding manners, and sometimes harsh and overbearing temper. His death was the subject of deep regret to the literary world. He has left to posterity some of the best moral works in the English language. 29 John Thurloe. - Dobson. - G. Greenhill Russell, Esq. Born I6l6; Secretary of State in 1653; which office he continued to fill to the period of the Restoration : in which he wished, it seems, to have had a hand ; but the new counsellors of Charles did not trust the old counsellor of the Cromwells. About ten days before the King's return he was sent to the Tower ; but was soon released, and spent the rest of his life in studious retirement at Lincoln's Inn, preparing and arranging, it may be presumed, his excellent Collection of State Papers. He was a man of good sense and moderation, and not personally stained with any of the crimes which disgraced the times in which he lived. He died in 1668. 30 Sir Joshua Reynolds. - - Himself, - HIS MAJESTY. Born 1728 Died 1792. SI Charles Edward, Grandson of James II. Ramsay, Sir W. W, Wynn, Bart* Bom 1720. Died 1788.

He was the convivial companion of Charles the Second, and the celebrated wit of the age. "When King Charles was told that Rochester had lampooned him in a copy of verses, in which he had said that he tiever said a foolish thing, or e'ver did a wise one;'' the King replied, it was quite true, for that his words were his own, hut his actions were his minister's.^'' His life was full of irregularity; but on his death- bed, through the influence of Bishop Burnet, he was brought to serious reflection and repentance. 33 Edward Montague. Earl of Sandwich. - HIS MAJESTY. Born 1625. Upon the Restoration, his friend, General Monk, obtained for him employment in his profession ; and in the Dutch war, in 1665, he signalized himself on several occasions. On the renewal of the war in 1672, he commanded a squadron of the fleet, under the Duke of York ; during the action with the Dutch fleet, a fire-ship grappled with the Royal James (Lord Sandwich's ship) set her on fire, and the gallant Earl and his crew perished in the explosion. 34 Sir Charles Lucas, - Dobson, - - Lord Braybrooke. After the defeat of the Scotch army, in 1648, commanded by the Duke of Hamilton, Fairfax summoned Colchester, which had been blockaded for two months ; the garrison was obliged to surrender at discretion ; Sir Charles Lucas and Sir George Lisle, M'ho commanded, were shot, by order of Fairfax and his Council. 35 John Dry den, (a Bust) - Schemaker, - G.

[ 24 ] No. 37 Lord William Russell. - Zoust. - The Duke of Bedford. Born 1641, Son of William, the fifth Earl, and afterwards Duke of Bedford ; executed 1683. The circumstances of the trial and execution of this nohle Lord are universally known. Had the evidence upon his trial been even more de- fective than it was, his life would hardly have been spared. The great offence he had given to Charles the Second and James the Second, was, the active part he had taken upon the Exclusion Bill ; and they felt, that an enemy was not less to be feared, because he possessed high character and general esteem. When James the Second, in his distress, in 1688, applied to the Earl of Bedford (the father of Lord William Russell,) telling him he could render him signal service — " Alas, Sir, (replied the Earl) lam old and feeble, lean do you but little service. I had once a son that could have assisted you ; but he is no more." 38 John Locke. - - _ Christ Church College, Oxford. Born the 29th of August, 1632 ; died the 28th of October, 1704. How his life was employed, with what honour to our country, and vrhat benefit to our nature, and in what successful attempts to exercise and enlarge the faculties of the human understanding, none need to be told. But it never can be useless to repeat, as a happy example to posterity, that he united the most transcendant genius with the easiest manners — the deepest meta- physics with studies of practical utility,~a warm love of liberty, with a true attachment to our monarchical Constitution,— and a bold and inquisi- tive philosophy, with the meek spirit and unassuming pretension of a true believer in the Gospel of Christ. 39 James Butler.

Was born in 1642 ; educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, and suc- ceeded the celebrated Dr. Barrow as Professor of Mathematics in that University. In 1688 he was chosen one of the representatives of the University for the Convention Parliament. He held the office of Master No. 41 42 [ 25 ] of the Mint for several years, and directed the re-coinage which took place about the year I699. In 1703 he was elected President of the Royal Society, which office he held till 1727, when he died, at the age of eighty - five. He was the most eminent philosopher which this, or perhaps any country ever produced. Every step he took in his discoveries demonstrated to him the Being and Providence of God. The book he studied with the most unremitttng application was the Bible ; and as he was thoroughly con- vinced of the truth of Divine Revelation, so he inculcated, in many of his writings, with all the force of his enlightened mind, the benevolent prin- ciples of Christianity. Nature and Nature's laws were hid in night ; God said, let Newton be, and all was light. Elias Ashmole. - - - - D. S. Dugdale, Esq. An eminent Antiquary and Herald, was born I617, died IC92. Upon the Restoration of King Charles the Second, he was appointed to the care of the Royal Library, and directed to examine Hugh Peters, into whose hands it had fallen, relative to the embezzlement of various books and medals, which had been taken away during the usurpation of Oliver Cromwell ; but he was not able to recover them. He received from Mr. John Tradescant a very large collection of curiosities, to which he added very considerably ; and gave the whole, together with his library, to the University of Oxford. Many of his works have been published ; that upon the Institution and Rules of the Order of the Garter is the most celebrated. Sir William Temple. - Sir Peter Lely. - Viscount Palmerston. Born 1628; died 1700. He was educated at Emmanuel College, Cam- brido-e. He filled several public offices, and conducted some of the most fmportant negociations, in which England was ever concerned (and especially those of Nimeguen and Breda), with great ability and distinguished success. Without derogating in any particular from his own high principles, he had the good fortune to enjoy the favour and confidence of three sove- reigns of very dissimilar characters ; and the delicacy with which he ab- stained from taking any prominent part in the Revolution, which dethroned his old master James the Second, met the generous approbation of his successor, who having failed to induce Sir William Temple to accept public employment, condescended to visit hiiii at his celebrated retire- ment at Moor Park. It was at those visits that Swift had the honour of D No. being known to King William, to whom he subsequently dedicated his edi- tion of Temple's works. 43 William Dugdale. - - Bousseler. • D. S. Dugdale, Esq. M.P. An eminent Antiquary, Herald, and Historian, born 1605. About the year ]6S8, he was placed in the Herald's office, by the Earl of Arundel, then Earl Marshall. He attended the King during the Civil War, and was in several battles, particularly in that of Edge Hill. After the death of the King he retired to France; upon the Restoration he returned to England; and in the year 1677, was knighted, and appointed Garter prin- cipal King at Arms. He was a most industrious man, unremitting in his researches; and has given to the world much useful information upon the various subjects in which he was engaged. He died 1686. 44 TheRt.Hon.WM.WiNDHAM. - Sir J. Reynolds. - G. J. Cholmondeley, Esq, 45 Alexander Pope, (a J52/*0 - Roubilliac. - G. W. Taylor, Esq. Born in l688, and died 1744. The annals of Pope's life would be a catalogue of his admirable ss orks ; he took little part in politics, connected himself with no public event, and is memorable only as a Poet ; but then he is universally admitted to be the poet of good taste, good sense, and good manners. 46 Henry Fox, Lord Holland. - Sir J. Reynolds, - Lord Holland. Born in 1705; held successively the offices of Lord of the Treasury, Secretary at War, and Paymaster of the Forces; created a Peer in 1763; and died in 1774. ' No party hostility ever denied to Mr. Fox (any more than to his still more eminent son) great abilities in public affairs ; and in private life, every sociable and amiable quality. NORTH ROOM.

In this situation he had to undergo a long series of legal and academical litigation; to which he [ 27 ] No. was glad to superadd as many literary controversies as he could excite. He was certainly a man of great acumen, and of very considerable learn- ing ; but he has been accused of much arrogance in the display of it. His edition of Horace is a work which has met with many admirers. 48 Lord Rodney. - - - Sir J. Reynolds. - HIS MAJESTY. Born 1717.

Dr. Burnet, Bishop of Salisbury, was at the same time appointed his Preceptor. He died in 1700. He is represented to have been an amiable Prince ; and to have made great progress in his studies, while under the care of the Duke and the Bishop. 55 Admiral Viscount Nelson. - Hoppner. - HIS MAJESTY. Born 1758. Died 1805. 56 Isaac Barrow, D. D. - - Trinity College, Cambridge. The friend of Sir Isaac Newton, and one of the most eminent members of the Protestant Church, was born in 1630, and died in 1(577. He held the offices of Professor of Greek and of Mathematics in the University of No, [ 28 ] Cambridge, and was chosen Master of Trinity College in the year l672. He was a man of great piety and learning, and is supposed to have been . the ber,t scholar of his time. Many of his very able works have been published: those which were written to elucidate the Scriptures are de- servedly of the highest reputation. . He was attached to the Royal Cause, and remained in privacy during the Commonwealth; his friends expected great preferment for h.m at the Restoration, but he received none: he bore his disappointment, however, with great calmness, and only remarked Te magis optavit rediturum Carole nemo Et nemo senait te rediisse minus. 57 Lord Chancellor Camden.

His acquirements may be measured by a saying of Charles the Second, that " he knew mora law than all his judges, and more [ 29 ] divmity than all his bishops r and his gaiety and wit, by his reply to the same Monarch ; - / believe, Shaftesbury, (said the King) thou art the wickedest dog in England:' May it pleaseyour Majesty, (rephed the Lo^d Chancellor,) of a subject, I believe lam:' We do not enter into the political Ufe of Lord Shaftesbury ; it has been his misfortune that his history has been always written by hostile pens ; but three topics of praise, at least, cannot be denied to him— talents m every thing— purity in the seat of Justice— and the friendship of Locke. Dryden, who has drawn his character as a Statesman, perhaps with overcharged severity, makes some amends^ when he speaks of him as a Judge: , Yet fame deserved, no enemy can grudge. The Statesman we abhor, yet praise the Judge ; Oh, had he been content to serve the crown With vh tues only proper to the gown, Or had the rankness of the soil been freed From cockle that oppressed the nobler seed, David for him his tuneful harp had strung, And heaven had wanted one immortal song. 62 Three of the Children of Charles L Sir Peter Lely. Earl of Egremont, James Duke of York (aged 14.) Princess Elizabeth (aged 12.) Henry Duke of Gloucester (aged 8.) The Parliament committed them to the care of Algernon Earl of Nor- thumberland ; from whose custody the Duke of York, then about 14 years old, made his escape. The Duke of Gloucester was confined in the Isle of Wight, by the order of Cromwell, till the year 1652, when he was sent to the Continent, and joined his brother at Paris ; be returned to England at the Restoration, and died shortly after, at the age of 20. I tie Princess Elizabeth died at Carisbrook Castle, in the year 1650, aged 1^, and was buried at Newport, in the Isle of Wight. This Picture was painted bv Sir Peter Lely, for the Earl of Northum- berland, a short time before the escape of the Duke of York ;-the Por- trait of the Duke is one of the ablest performances of his pencil. 63 Lady Anne Carr, Countess of Bedford. - Vandyke. - Earl of Egremont. She was sole daughter and heiress of Robert Carr, Earl of Somerset, by Frances, daughter of Thomas HoNvard, Earl of Suffolk. The history of the divorce of the Countess of Somerset from her first husband, the Earl [ 30 ] of Essex, and all the extraordinary circumstances which followed that event, are to be found in the History of the Reign of James the First. 64 Thomas Howard, Earl of Arundel. - Vandyke. - Marquis of Stafford. Was Earl Marshall of England in the early part of the reign of Charles the First. Few persons have shewn more love for the Arts than the Earl of Arundel; and it appears from his example, that his Sovereign was in- duced to study and to encourage them. This nobleman was the first who sent persons to foreign countries to make an extensive collection of ob- jects of art. That collection was dispersed at his death. A part of it is at Wilton, belonging to the Earl of Pembroke ; another part at Oxford ; and the Cameos and Intaglios are in the possession of the Duke of Marlbo- rough; his favourite bronze head of Homer is in the British Museum. Turbulent times are ill suited to the progress of the Fine Arts; he was driven from his retirement in this country, by the prospect of the civil commotions, in 1642, and died at Padua, 1646. 65 Lady Dorothy Sidney, Coun- ] TEss of Sunderland. - \ ' Vandyke. - Earl of Egremont.

In 1652 he was tried for High Treason, condemned, and beheaded at Bolton, in Lancashire. He married the daughter of the Duke de la Trimouille. King Charles the Second refused his assent to the Bill for restoring the estate to the family, which had been lost by the Earl's loyalty and attach- ment to him. The Countess of Derby defended the castle in which she resided, with great spirit, against the Parliament forces, for a considerable time.

In 1701 he was appointed Commander in Chief of the forces in Holland, and in 1702 Queen Anne selected him as Captain General of all her forces. The history of his brilliant campaigns are well known, and are detailed at length in the Memoirs which have been lately published by Mr. Coxe. He died 1722. The exploits of the Duke of Marlborough stood unrivalled in British his- tory, till this country produced a hero in our own days, who has equalled, if not surpassed him. Sir George Jeffries. - Riki/. - Earl of Winchilsea. Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench in 1682. After the defeat of the Duke of Monmouth, he was sent into the West of England to try the rebels: the rigour with which he executed that commission is well known. After his return from the West, upon the death of Lord Keeper North, he was made Lord Chancellor. In 1688, after the abdication of King James, he attempted to make his escape to Hamburgh, but he was discovered by the mob disguised as a sailor, seized, ill treated, and at length carried before the Lord Mayor, who sent him to the Tower, where he died in 1689. Anthony Vandyke. - Vandyke. - HIS MAJESTY. Born 1598. About the year 1630, Charles L hearing of his fame, sent Sir Kenelm Digby to invite him to return to England, where he bad been a short time before. Charles sat to him frequently, and was so struck with his merit, that he Knighted him in 1632. He died 1641. No, 74 Henrietta Maria. - - Vandyke. - HIS MAJESTY. The Daughter of Henry IV. of France, by Mary of Medicis, and the Queen of Charles I. Even the pencil of Vandyke himself never carried grace and elegance further than in this Portrait. We cannot look upon this resemblance of the unfortunate Queen, without lamenting that so much loveliness should have been fated to endure so many of the ills and adversities of life. She returned to England upon the Restoration of Charles II., quitted it upon the breaking out of the plague in 1665, and died in France in 1669. 75 William Harvey. - Cornelius Jansen - Sir W. W. Wynn, Bart. An eminent Physician, was born 1578, and educated at Caius College, Cambridge. He was Physician to James I. and Charles I. attended the latter to the Battle of Edgehill, and accompanied him afterwards to Oxford, where he was elected Warden of Merton College. He was chosen President of the College of Physicians in 1654, and presented that Insti- tution with the most munificent benefactions. His discovery of the cir- culation of the blood, has justly entitled him to a high rank among those men of science who have converted their knowledge to the use and benefit of mankind. He died in 1657. ~ 76 The first Howard, Duke of Norfolk. - - Earl of Carliale. *< Jockey of Norfolk, be not too bold, Fur Dickon, thy master, is bought and sold." 77 The Duchess of Norfolk. - - Earl of Carlisle. MIDDLE ROOM. South End. 78 Sir Bevil Granville. - - - Marquis of Stafford. Born 1596. He attached himself very early to the King's cause during the civil wars, and distinguished himself in several of the actions that took place. In 1643, he commanded the troops which liad been raised for the King's service in Cornwall, and fell in a successful attack which the Roval army made upon the Parliament forces, commanded by Sir William Waller. Clarendon says, that never was there a brighter courage and a gentler disposition married together, than in his person. [ 33 ] No. 79 Sir John Granville, afterwards Earl of Bath. - Marquis of Stafford. Son of Sir Bevil Granville, was born 1628; joined the King's forces when very young, and signalized himself in several battles fought in sup- port of the Royal cause. He retired into the country during the govern- ment of Cromwell; steadily retaining his principles, and watching his opportunity, to render service to the cause he had espoused. The death of Cromwell, and the state of the nation, afforded him that opportunity, and he carried on the communication between King Charles II. and General Monk, which led to the Restoration. He continued afterwards an active Member of Parliament, and was one of the great promoters of the Revo- lution in 1688. He died 1701. 80 Sir Thomas Wentworth, after-] wards Earl of Strafford. ] ^^^^y^^- ' Sir J. G. Egerton, Bart. Born 1593; died 1641. Was knighted by King James I. and became a distinguished Member of the first Parliament of Charles I. in opposition to the Court, and was a strenuous promoter of the Petition of Right. In 1628 he joined the Couit party ; was created a peer, and appointed to the Government of Ireland. In 1640 he was impeached by the Commons for High Treason, The spirit of party prevailed, popular clamour was furiously excited against him, and a bill of attainder was passed by both Houses, to which the King reluc- tantly gave his assent; he was executed 1641. In the Act for reversing the attainder, which passed in 1662, it is stated, that King Charles I. as- sented to the bill of attainder with ** exceeding great sorrozv^'"' that it was remembered by him with inexpressible grief' of heart and that he ex- pressed this when his own life was taken away. 81 George Abbot. - - Cornelius Jansen. - Archbishop of Canterbury. . Born 1560; died 1633. Appointed to the See of Canterbury in l6ll. A steady friend to the Protestant religion, bearing his faculties so meekly, that he has been represented as too indulgent to the Puritans, and too lax in Church cere- monies. He had considerable influence in State affairs durins: the reign of James I. and shewed upon many occasions, and particularly in the oppo- sition which he made to the divorce of the Countess of Essex (afterwards Countess of Somerset^ great firmness and integrit}'. During the time he was Archbiahop of Canterbury, a misfortune hap- pened to him, which tended much to embitter the latter part of his lif^e. While he was hunting in the Lord Zouch's park, at Bramshill, he let fly E [ 34 ] No. an arrow at one of the deer, which wounded the Lord Zouch's keeper in the arm, of which he immediately died. In consequence of this accident several of the hishops refused consecration at his hands. 82 Thomas LiNACRE. - - Holbein, - - HIS MAJESTY.

He left this country during the civil war; returned at the Resto- ration, and designed the triumphal arches which were erected upon that occasion.

He is said to have lived upon ill terms with his first wife, but to have been amply compensated by the amiable qualities of the second. He has recorded his opinion upon this subject, by his pencil. In a Picture, in one of the collections in Germany, he has triven the Portraits of these three Ladies— the first in hell, the second in heaven, and the last between both, as he had not yet decided to which she most properly belonged. 100 Lady Lucy Percy, Countess of Carlisle.

" He was," says Clarendon " of a noble nature, generous disposition, and of such other endowments as made him very capable to be a great favourite to a great king. Of a courage not to be daunted, and of a most flowing courtesy and affability to all men." The Duchess was Catherine Manners, daughter and heiress of the Earl of Rutland. The infant on her knee died young ; the daughter was thrice married ; first, to Charles, Lord Herbert ; secondly^ to James Stewart, Duke of Len- nox ; and thirdly, to Thomas Howard, brother of Lord Carlisle. 110 Gilbert Burnet. - Bishop of Salisbury. Born in 1643 ; Bishop of Salisbury in 1688 ; died in 1715. His talents for extemp,ore preaching brought him early into notice, and [41 1 No. his religious and political principles soon connected him with the most eminent of the Whig party, in which he soon became considerable, without however neglecting his more sacred duties. He reclaimed Lord Rochester on his death bed, and assisted (with Tillotson) Lord Russell on the scaffold. He received from Russell his watch, with the remarkable expression—" I ham now done with time, and have only to think of eternity y Burnet soon after retired to the Continent, and was removed from his preferments in England ; his exile, however, was not useless to the Church or the State, for he attached himself to the Princess of Orange, and took an important part in the cofiduct of the Revolution ; and one of the first acts of King William was to appoint him lo the See of Salisbury. The amusing " Memoirs of P. P. Parish Clerk," were written in derision of the Bishop's History of his own Times ; and Swift and other Tory wri- ters have poured out all the phials of their mirth and wit upon his person, his principles, and his proceedings. Some of these criticisms were per- haps not undeserved^ but they have not shaken the Bishop's character for learnmg and piety, for liberal views of state policy, and for a scrupulous discharge of his episcopal duties. Dr. Johnson says, the Life and Death of John, Earl of Rochester, is a hookwhich the critic ought to read for its elegance, the philosopher for its argument, and the saint for its piety. Ill Edward Hyde, Earl of Clarendon. - Sir P. Lely. - Earl of Clarendon. Was appointed to the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer, in 1642,' and one of the Prince of Wales's Council in l6u. He retired with the Prince to Jersey, during the contention between the King and the Par- liament, where he began his History of the Civil War. At the Restoration, 1660, he returned to England, and was made Lord Chancellor, and prin- cipal Minister. The Duke of York (afterwards James II.) married his daughter. He became unpopular as the supposed author of the Dutch war, and in 166? an impeachment was drawn up by the Commons against him] accusing him, in various instances, of betraying the nation. He was de- prived of his office in consequence ; and retired to France, where he com- pleted his History, and died at Rouen in 1674 ; after having in vain soli- cited his Sovereign's permission to return to his native country. He had been the able and faithful counsellor both to Charles L and Charles IL, and had the mortification to see his well founded advice rejected, upon some of the most important occurrences in those reigns. It is worthy of F [ 42 ] No. remark, that his daughter, who had embraced the Catholic religion, at the instigation of the Duke of York, should have given two Protestant Queens to the Throne of England, 112 General Copley. -i I - - - C.

In 1628 he commanded a squadron in the Mediterranean, to protect the English trade against the Venetians and the Algerines, and gained a considerable victory with an inferior force. He was engaged in various political transactions of the times in which he lived ; but the greatest part of his life appears to have been spent in the encouragement of works of art, and in philosophical researches. In the first settlement of the Royal Society he was appointed one of the Council. He died in the year 1665. East Side. 115 Sir Richard Wynn. - - C. Jansen, - Sir W. W.

In 1648 he was suspected of attachment to the Royal cause; was expelled the army, and committed to prison. This Portrait was painted at that time. There is in the back ground a slight sketch of the Round Tower at Windsor, in which he was confined. He died 1668. 118 Sir Thomas More. - - Holbein. - - Sir Thos. Baring, Bart. Born 1480. Succeeded Cardinal Wolsey as Chancellor to Henry VIII. in 1529. Being a rigid Catholic, he resigned that office in 1532, rather than acknowledge the Supremacy of the King in matters of religion. He was tried for High Treason, condemned, and executed 1535. A man of great learning, and intlexiiile integrity; a protector of Literature and the Fine Arts; the friend and patron of Holbein. 119 Thomas Howard, Dure of Norfolk. " Holbein. - The Duke of Norfolk. Was born about 1475. He was tried in 1547 upon the same charge as his Son, tl c Karl of Surrey, sentenced to death, and expected to follow his son to the scaffold, well knowing that nothing could avert the purpose of his inexorable Sovereign; but his execution was fixed for the 29th Janu- ary, and Henry the Eighth died on the 28th. The sentence therefore was not executed ; but he remained in prison till one year before his death, which took place in 1554. 120 The Karl of Surrey. - Holbein. - - HIS MAJESTY. Son of Thomas Howard, Duke of Norfolk. King Henry VIII. thinking that boih father and son had views to the throne, and intended to re-es- tablish I he Catholic religion, determined to sacrifice them. The Earl of Surrey was tried first for High Treason ; the principal charge against him was, that of bearing the Arms of King Edward; he was sentenced to death, and executed 19th January, 1547.

He was taken in arms with his father, the Duke of Northumberland, when he appeared in support of the Lady Jane Grey's title to the throne, and was kept a close prisoner in the Tower till 1.5.54, when he was par- doned. Queen Elizabeth appointed him Master of the Ordnance, and created him Earl of Warwick. He was actively employed during his life by the Queen, and had the command of large forces entrusted to him ; and upon all occasions conducted himself with great firmness and ability. In 1586 he was one of those Peers who assisted at the trial of Mary, Queen of Scots. He died 1589, of an amputation of the leg, in which he had received a wound many years before. He was a great friend of Lord Burleigh,— very much esteemed, and generally called the good Earl of JVarwich. There is a curious monument erected to his memory in a chapel at Warwick. 124 King Henry Vm. - Holbein. - Society of Antiquaries.

In 1697 he was created Viscount Barfleur and Earl of Orford He was subsequently Vice Admiral of England, and one of the Com- missioners for the Scottish Union. 128 Thomas Cranmer. - Gerberius Fleccius. - The British Museum. The Church of England is perhaps more indebted to Archbishop Cranmer than to any other person; he promoted the Reformation by the gentlest, but at the same time by the most determined and most persever- ing means, during the reigns of Henry VIII. and Edward VI. In 1556 he was burnt to death for adhering to the reformed Church.— Ridley and Latimer had sutfered the same cruel death a short time before, on the same account. 129 William Warham. - - Holbein. - Archbishop of Canterbury. Born about 1455; Bishop of London 1503; and in 1504 Archbishop of Canterbury, which See he filled till his death, 1532. He was also successively Master of the Rolls, Lord Keeper, and Chan- cellor of England ; the antagonist and rival of Wolsey, and the friend and patron of Erasmus -to whom he presented a copy of the very portrait before us. Though in his own habits singularly abstemious, he was in his public character so liberal and disinterested, that he found on his death bed, that he possessed but £30. in the world, "enough however'' he said, '*Jor the journey I am now going.'' ' 130 John Milton. . . . - Earl of Onslow. The most illustrious poet of our country, was born in I6O8; educated at St. Paul's School, and at the age of seventeen admitted into Christ's College, Cambridge. He devoted himself to poetry very early in life: one of his first works, which was the Mask of Co7;2w^, was performed at Ludlow Castle, in 1634, before John Earl of Bridgewater, for whom it appears to have been written. More than a century afterwards it was adapted to the modern stage. r Allegro, IlPenseroso.^nd Lysidas Mlovf^d shortly after; but the great [ 46 ] No. work which immortalizes his name, is the Paradise Lost, which was not published till I667. He sold the copy of it for five pounds, with an agree- ment that he was to receive five pounds more after the sale of 1 300 of the first impression, and five pounds for the second impression. He held the office of Latin Secretary to Cromwell, and is said to have refused the same office upon the Restoration. He died in 1674, having been blind for many years before his death. 131 William SoMERs. - - Holbein. - - HIS MAJESTY- The Jester of King Henry Vin.—He is said to have prevailed upon the King to restore an estate to a gentleman with whom he had lived as ser- vaiit, and whom Henry had reduced to poverty for denying his supremacy^ 132 Inigo Jones. - - Vandyke. - - Earl of Darnley^ Was born 1572. He has always been considered as the best Architect England had produced at that time; and many of his well known works are still the subject of admiration. He was originally sent to Rome by William, Earl of Pembroke, as a Painter ; but his admiration for the works of Palladio, induced him to alter his course. On his return to England, he was appointed Surveyor to James I. Charles I. who, as well as his elder brother Prince Henry, had great delight in promoting the Arts, not only continued him in the same office, but gave him great encourage- ment in his profession. During the festive part of the reign of that Monarch, he designed all the decorations for the Masques and other Royal entertainments. Towards the end of his life he sympathised in the misfortunes of his master, and died 1651. 133 Henry St. John, Viscount BoLiNGBROKE. - - Lord Bagot. Born 1672; Secretary at War 1704; Secretary of State 1710; Viscount Bolinghroke 1712; exiled 1715; pardoned 1723; died 1751. His life, as a Statesman, was short ; but in the course of it he differed with every political friend he ever had. In private life he was amiable and sincere ; and in society, gay, witty, and brilliant. The levities of his early days are forgotten in the philosophic retirement in which he enjoyed the friendship of Swilt, Pope, Arbuthnot, and Atterbury. As an author, we admire his style, and his genius; but perhaps no man, gifted with such talents, ever rendered them so useless, and even so injurious to himself and others. 134 Jane Shore, - ^ . Eton College. This Portrait of the celebrated Mistress of King Edward IV. is from Eton College, of which her Confessor, William Westbury, was the Provost in the year 1476 ; and through her interference with the King, estates of considerable value were restored to that Royal foundation, of which it had previously been deprived. She was the wife of a Goldsmith in Lombard-street, and is represented by historians to have been extremely beautiful, lively, generous, and cha- ritable : and possessed great influence over the King; which, however, she never used to the prejudice of any person, but frequently exerted it in favour of the unfortunate. Holingshed says of her, « Proper she was and faire : nothing in her bodie that you would have changed, but you would have wished her some- Avhat higher." She was deprived of what property she possessed by Richard III., and ^ condemned to do penance at St. Paul's Cross in the year 1483. She was still living in great poverty in the reign of Henry VIII.

It was a singular fortune, that born, educated, and living till the age of 30, among the Dissenters, he should rise to the Primacy of the Church establishment; that the least ambitious of men should be placed in an Archiepiscopal throne, from which his predecessor was detruded for con- scientious scruples; and that the Chaplain of the gay Charles should be selected as Clerk of the Closet by the serious William. Of his Sermons— long the pride of the English pulpit—the language is become a little obsolete; hut the insinuating eloquence, the persuasive reasoning, the copious learning, and above all the true spirit of Christian truth, which they display, place them in the very first class of works of that description.

One of the best of our English Portrait Painters : became Painter to King Charles the First, after the death of Vandyke, whose Portraits he imitated with much skill and exactness. The tur- bulence of the times, and the civil wars, were fatal to the interests of Dobson. He died in 1646, at the age of 36, having given great promise of excellence in his profession. 147 Erasmus. - - Holbein. - - HIS MAJESTY. Born 1467. Died 1536. First came to England in 1497, and went to Oxford the same year, to pursue his studies ; he afterwards became Professor of Divinity and Greek in the University of Cambridge. Whilst in this country he enjoyed the friendship of Sir Thomas More, Archbishop Warham, and of all the eminent men of his time; he died 1536. There is an excellent statue erected to his memory at Rotterdam, the place of his birth. [ 48 ] No. 136 Thomas Killigrew, painted when Mi-1^^ ^ nister, at Venice. - - - . j ^ 127 King Richard III. [49] At the sale of the Collection of Charles I. a price was fixed on each picture ; and so highly were the Paintings of Holbein esteemed, that this Portrait of Erasmus, and another of Frobenius, his printer, of the same size, were valued at <£200. when all the Cartoons of Raphael were only estimated at ^300.

Mary is supposed to have taken a great aversion to her husband immediately after their marriage. In 1567 he was found strangled in bed. Charles Stuart, Earl of Lenox, was the father of Arabella Stuart, who was confined in the Tower, and who died 1615. SOUTH ROOM. iVest Side, 150* >SiR Walter RALEian. - Zucchero. - Earl of Hardwicke. Among the eminent men which this country has produced, and whose life has been rendered interesting by the many important transactions in which he was engaged, may be reckoned Sir Walter Raleigh. He was born in 1552 ; and in 1577 he embarked with the troops sent by Queen Elizabeth to assist the Dutch against the Spaniards. The same enterpris- ing spirit, which was his charactcrestic through life, induced him to engage wherever active service was to be performed; and in J584, the Queen gave him a commission to explore the continent of North America. In this expedition he is said to have discovered Virginia ; and from his establishment in that colony he first imported Tobacco into this country. In 1595 he projected an expedition against Guiana, defeated the Spani- ards, and took possession of that country. During the remainder of the reign of Elizabeth he was engaged in many brilliant and successful enter- prises ; but upon the death of the Queen, his prosperity and glory sunk jiever to rise again. Soon after the accession of King James he Ipsf Q [ 50 ] his influence, was accused of High Treason, for attempting to place Arabella Stuart upon the Throne, tried, and sentenced to death, and his estates given to Robert Carr, Earl of Somerset, the favourite of King James. Sir Edward Coke, then Attorney General, did himself great discredit upon this trial ; he not only pressed the case most unjustly against Sir Walter, but insulted him with the most opprobrious language. He was however reprieved, and sent to the Tower, where he remained prisoner for above 12 years, during which time he wrote his History of the World. In 1615 he obtained his liberty, and in l6l6 undertook ano- ther voyage to Guiana. This expedition failed ; and he returned to Eng- land in 1618, when he was seized and imprisoned, at the instance of the Spanish Ambassador; and in consequence of his former sentence, was be- beheaded in the 66th year of his age. Thus died one of the ablest men which this country has produced. His execution may be considered as one of the most atrocious acts which was committed in the times in which it occurred. 151 Sir Edward Coke. - C. Jansen. - John Penn, Esq. Attorney General in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, in 1593 ; and Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench in that of King James, in l6l3. He was removed from the ofBccof Lord Chief Justice in l6l6, in consequence of a dispute with Lord Ellesmere, as to the respectivejurisdictionsof the Courts of King's Bench and Chancery. Upon the calling of the new Parliament in ]625, the Court party got him appointed Sheriff, to prevent his election; and he attended the Judges in that capacity — who had himself been Chief Justice of England. He was shortly afterwards elected for the county of Bucks, took a very active part in all the proceedings of those times, and was one of the principal framers of the Petition of Right. He died in 1634-, at the age of 86. His works upon the English Law are considered as of the highest authority. 152 Thomas Burnett, LL. D. - Sir G. Kneller. - The Charter House. Born 1655; died 1715. In 1681 he published his most celebrated work, the Sacred Theory of the Earth. In l685 he was appointed Master of the Charter House; and in 1687 he nobly made the first stand against the encroaching despotism of James II. by refusing to admit a papist, whom the King, by his dis- pensing power, endeav^oured to force upon the Charter House. This affair w^s the prelude to the resistance of the Universities, the Corpora- tions, the Bishops, and finally of the Houses of Lords and Commons, and of [ ^1 1 No. the whole British nation. Dr. Burnett therefore, a literary hoaor to his country, should not be forgotten amongst its political benefactors. 153 Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester. Mark Garrard. Marquis of SaHsbury. Son of John Duke of Northumberland, and brother of Ambrose Dudley, Earl of Warwick ; was indicted for High Treason in assisting the cause of the Lady Jane Grey, received sentence of death, but was pardoned and set at liberty in 1554, at the same time with the Earl of Warwick In the reign of Queen Elizabeth he was taken into favour, possessed the highest influence at Court, obtained the most splendid grants from the Queen, and lived in the greatest magnificence. He commanded the army which was sent into the Low Countries ; and was afterwards appointed Lieut. General of that which was assembled at Tilbury. The Queen proposed to appoint him her Lieutenant both in England and Ireland ; but the Lord Burleigh and the Lord Chancellor Hatton opposed this appointment, as dangerous to her interests. He is supposed upon this to have retired in disgust, and set out for his Castle of Kenilworth ; but he died in his house at Cornbury, in Oxfordshire, in his way thither, in 15 88, at the age of 56. He was buried at Warwick, where a handsome monument was erected to his memory, 154 William, Earl of Pembroke. - Honthorst. - Lord Bayuing. Born 1580. He was appointed Lord Chamberlain to King James, in 1617. A man of elegant manners, and high accomplishments, the patron of Literature and the Arts. He died 1630. 155 Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex. Zucchero. The Duke of Bedford. The favourite of Queen Elizabeth. Son of Walter Devereux, Earl of Essex. He accompanied the Lord Leicester, who was his father-in-law, in his expedition to Holland, and distinguished himself at the Battle of Zutphen, where the gallant Sir Philip Sidney lost his life. The Queen shortly after gave him the command of the Horse in the army she assem- bled at Tilbury, and loaded him with favours. A warm dispute arising between the Queen and him, as to the fittest person to superintend the affairs of Ireland, he turned his back upon her with contempt, and she gave him a box on the ear. He resented this affront, and retired from Court; shortly after, in 1598, he was appointed Lord Lieutenant of Ireland ; but considering this appointment as a banishment, he returned without leave. For this act of disobedience he was suspended from piost of his offices ; and at length he carried his resentment so far, as to [52] No. take up arms against his Sovereign ; but he was reduced to submission by the Earl of Nottingham, declared a traitor, tried, condemned, and executed in ]601, aged 33, the Queen, as it is said, having once counter- manded, and at length consenting very reluctantly to his execution, be- cause he would not apply to her for mercy. During the time the Queen is supposed to have had a passion for Lord Essex, she is said to have given him a ring, declaring that however griev- ously he might offend her, if he returned that pledge, she should consider it as a token of submission, and would pardon him. After his sentence, Essex gave the ring to the Countess ol Nottingham to convey to the Queen; but the Countess kept the ring, and only communicated the circumstance upon her death-bed to the Queen. The Queen reproached the dying Countess with the utmost violence for her conduct ; and becanie herself overwhelmed with grief. Some historians consider this circumstance as having hastened the death of the Queen, which took place not long afterwards. 156 Walter Devereux, Earl of Essex, father of the Favourite. Son of Sir Richard Devereux, Knt. Was created Earl of Essex by Queen Elizabeth, in 1572; and Earl Marshall of Ireland, in which coun- try he died, Sept. 22, 1576, (not without suspicion of his being poisoned). He was buried at Caermartheu, where a superb Monument was erected to his memory. His Widow married Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester. 157 Thomas Sackville, Loud BucKHURST - The Duchess of Dorset. Succeeded Lord Burleigh as Lord High Treasurer in 1598. In 1603 he was created Earl of Dorset, and died 1608. History ranks him among the first men of the age both in literary and political character. 158 Queen Elizabeth. - Zucchero. - The Marquis of Salisbury. 159 Charles Lord Howard of Effingham, ] afterwards Earl of Nottingham. - | " " ^^'^ Countess de Grey. Lord High Admiral in the reign of Queen Elizabeth. He defeated the famous Spanish Armada in 1588, and was created Earl of Nottingham, for the services he rendered upon that occasion. Upon the defection of the Earl of Essex, the Queen gave him the command both of the fleet and army, saying, that he was born both to serve and to save his country. The Earl of Essex submitted to him without a struggle. He was highly Lord Bagot. [ 53 ] No esteemed by King Janves the First ; but becoming infirm, he resigned his office to the new favourite, VillierS; afterwards Duke of Buckingham. He died 1624, aged 86. Lord High Chancellor of England in the reign of King James tlie First, was born 1561, and educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, under Dr. Whitgift, afterwards Archbishop of Canterbury, After four years resi- dence at the University, he spent some time abroad, and on his return fixed his abode in Gray's Inn. He distinguished himself very early in the pro- fession of the law, and in 1588 was appointed by Queen Elizabeth one of her Council. In 1607 he was advanced by King James to the office of Solicitor General ; in 1613 to that of Attorney General; in 1617 to that of Lord Keeper, and in 1618 to that of Lord Chancellor. In the same year he was created Baron Verulam, and two years afterwards Viscount St. Alban's. In the Parliament which met in 16"'2], a committee was appointed to enquire into the abuses in Courts of Justice. This Committee reported that they had charges of corruption to produce against the Lord Chan- cellor. The House of Peers desired him tc prepare for his defence, but he prevailed upon the Prince of Wales (afterwards King Charles the First) to present his submission to the House, in which he abandoned his defence, and threw himself upon their mercy. He was sentenced to pay a fine of forty thousand pounds, rendered incapable of holding any office, and ad- judged to be imprisoned in the Tower during the King's pleasure. This fine was afterwards assigned to persons of his own nomination; the rest of his sentence was remitted, and he was summoned to the first Parliament of King Charles the First. He died in the year 1626. No man can read his works without admiring the strength and beauty of his genius, the wisdom of his thoughts, and the depth of his learning ; and no man can reflect upon his life, without lamenting that any human failing should have been mixed with so much of human excellence. Addison says he had the comprehensive knowledge of Aristotle, with the beautiful graces and em- bellishments of Cicero. Vansomer. - Earl of Verulam. I6l Sir Nathaniel Bacon. - - Himself, . Earl of Verulam. Born 1546. Died l6l5. His own Portrait ; was the youngest son of Sir Nicholas Bacon, and half [54 ] No. brother to the Lovd Chancellor. He studied painting in Italy, and was esteemed one of the most skilful painters of the day. He is not supposed to have practised the art as a profession, hut as an amusement. Some of his works are preserved at Culford, in Suffolk, where he lived, and where in the church a monument is erected to his memory. 162 Sir Thomas Gresham. - Sir Antonio More, - G. W. Taylor, Esq. This eminent merchant of the City of London was horn in the year 1519, and educated at the University of Cambridge. He acquired great wealth by his mercantile pursuits, and rendered himself serviceable to Henry the Eighth, in extricating him from many of his pecuniary difficul- ties. So highly sensible was the King of his merits, that near the end of his reign he bestowed upon him some valuable marks of his favour, adding these words, " You shall know that you have served a king.'' He built the Exchange in Cornhill in the year 1567, that the merchants of London might have a public edifice to assemble in for the transaction of their business, without being exposed to the weather, as had previously been the case when they met in Lombard-street. Queen Elizabeth, as an especial mark of her favour towards him, ap- pointed him her own merchant, and in 1570 she went attended by her Court, to dine with him at his house in Bishopsgate-street. She then in- spected every part of the Exchange, which from that day was called The Royal Exchange." He died in 1579, leaving estates of considerable valuci to be applied to charitable purposes. It has been said of him, that " his riches were great, the reputation with which he acquired them greater t and the uses to which they were applied^ greatest of all.''* 163 Sir Francis Drake. - Pourbus. - Dowager Marchioness of Lansdowne. Born 1545 ; Member for Bossiney and Plymouth, died 1596. Drake is not only among the first, but among the most famous of the naval heroes of England ; a distinction which he owes to great talents in his profession, to his enterprising spirit, and to his circumnavigation of the world in the years 1578 and 1579 ; an exploit which, under all the circumstances, required heroism to undertake, and great abilities as well as good fortune to accomplish. The introduction of Potatoes into Eng- land, is said to have been one of the effects of this memorable voyage. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth, at Deptford, in 1581^ on the decl^ pf the famous ship in which he had put a git^dle roundabout the world*^ [55 ] No. 164 Count deGondemar, - C, J arisen, - Marquis of Salisbury. Was Ambassador from the Court of Spain in the reign of James I. He has always been represented as having been a most artful politician ; and he certainly contrived to obtain a considerable ascendancy at the British court. The learned and gallant Sir W. Raleigh, who by his exploits had offended his nation, is supposed to have been sacrificed chiefly through his influence. 165 Charles Brandon, Duke of Suf-1 , T./r 1 • -iiLT'c r - - - Lord Kous. FOLK, and Mary, his Wite. J Charles Brandon was one of the most accomplished gentlemen at the court of Henry VIII. and a great favourite of that monarch. He married Mary, the sister of Henry, and the widow of Louis XH. King of France. Upon that marriage the well known lines were wiltten : " Cloth of gold, do not despise, Though thou be matched with cloth of frize ; Cloth of frize, be not too bold, Though thou be matched with cloth of gold." 166 Matthew Parker, - - Archbishop of Canterbury. The second Protestant Archbishop of Canterbury, was born 1504, and educated at Bennet College, Cambridge. After he bad been admitted into holy orders, his learning and piety made him generally known, and he was appointed Chaplain to Queen Anne Boleyn ; soon afterwards he suc- ceeded to a Prebend in the Cathedral of Ely, through the favour of King Henry VIII. and he received the same dignity in the Cathedral of Lincoln from 'the hands of King Edward VL ; but in the reign of Queen Mary, as he was known to be a diligent promoter of the Reformation, he was dili- gently sought for, and only escaped the persecution of those bloody times, and probably the fate of Cranmer, Ridley, and Latimer, by moving from place to place, generally in the night, and concealing himself with the greatest care. Upon the accession of Queen Elizabeth, he was appointed to the see of Canterbury. In the discharge of the duties of his high office, his great care was to fill the church with able and zealous Protes- tants, and thus to establish and confirm the Reformation. He died 1575. 167 The Earl of Huntingdon. . - - Lord Bagot. Master of the Hart Hounds to Queen Elizabeth ; President of the [ 56 ] No. North: Lord Lieutenant of Leicestershire, Rutland, York, Northumber- land, Westmoreland, and Durham.

Wa-s appointed Lord Keeper of the Great Seal in by Queen Elizabeth, and Lord Chancellor by King James L in 1603. He is represented as a sound lawyer, and a most just and honorable man. He presided at the trial of the Earl and Countess of Somerset, for the murder of Sir Thomas Overbury, and refused afterwards to put the Great Seal to the pardon granted to them by King James L He resigned the office of Chancellor in 1616, and died shortly afterwards. One of his sons was created after his death Earl of Bridgewater. 170 William Camden. - Marh Gheerard, - Marquis Camden. A most diligent Antiquary and an impartial Historian. Was born in 1551, and educated first at Christ's Hospital, then at St. Paul's School, and - afterwards at Magdalen College, Oxford. He died at Chiselhurst in Kent, in 1623. He corresponded with the learned men of all countries. The work for which he is justly celebrated is h\B Britannia. Bishop Gibson, who wrote his Life, says of him, " In his writings he was candid and mo- desty in his conversation easy and innocent, and in his whole life, even and exemplary." SOUTH ROOM.

On the accession of Queen Anne, in 1702, he was promoted to the rank of Vice Admiral. The same year he attacked and destroyed the French and Spanish squadrons in the harbour of Vigo. For this important service he received the thanks of the House of Commons. The last service this gallant officer performed was the capture of Gibraltar. He died in I709 172 Admiral Benbow. - Sir G. Kneller, - HIS MAJESTY, Born about 1651. At the age of fifteen he was a waterman's boy. [67] No. His general chatacter for bravery and skill in his profession, and his success against the Moorish pirates, procured for him the notice of (Charles II. of Spain, who recommended him to King James II. by whom he was appointed to a command in the Royal Navy. At the Revolution he was promoted to a flag by King William. He died 1702. 173 Henry Compton, Bishop op London. - Riley, - Lord Arden, Was youngest son of Spencer, second Earl of Northampton, who was killed at Hopton Heath, fighting for the King, in ^643. In 1674, he was elected Bishop of Oxford; and in \675 translated to the See of Lon- don. He was one of the seven Bishops sent to the Tower in 1688, and officiated at the Coronation of King William and Queen Mary, in the room of Dr. Sancroft, Archbishop of Cantef])ury, who declined to take the oaths. He laid the first stone of St. Paul's Cathedral, being then Bishop of London, and lived to preach the first sermon in it after it was completed, and died in July 1713, aged 80 years. 1T4 Philip Lord Hardwicke. Hoare. The Earl of Hardwicke. Lord Chancellor in 17S6; Earl of Hardwicke 1754, One of our most eminent Lawyers. — He held the high office of Lord Chancellor for twenty years successively, with great honour to himself, and great benefit to his country. 175 William Cecil, Lord Burleigh. - - The Earl of Yarmouth. Lord High Treasurer, and Prime Minister to Queen Elizabeth during almost the whole of her reign, died 1598. He was the great supporter of the Protestant cause, and contributed more than any other person to establish the Reformation. Posterity has assigned to him the character of one of the most prudent counsellors, and one of the most upright and able ministers of England. 176 Philip IL and Queen Mary. - - The Duke of Bedford. This is a most curious picture ; it represents the King and Queen in one of the apartments of the Savoy Palace. The church which is seen through the window^ is the old St. Paul's, destroyed in the great fire of London in 1656, the dreadful eff^ects of which are so strikingl}^ described by Evelyn, in the.

In 1673 the Great Seal was taken from the Earl of Shaftesbury, and given to Sir Heneage Finch, as Lord Keeper; and in 1675 he was made Lord Chancellor, and raised to the Peerage; in J681 he was created Earl of Nottingham, and died the next year. He is ranked among the abkst lawyers who have filled this high office; and his decrees have been held in high estimation. 181 Shakspeake. J. W. Croker, Esq. Born 1564. Died I616. It is doubtful whether any original Portrait of Shakspeare exists ; and It is even questioned whether our popular notion of his countenance be well founded. The Bust on the Monument at Stratford is not like the received portraits. But no great faith can be given to the work of the artist of a country church two centuries ago. The Portrait published at the .head of the first folio edition, only seven years after his death, which re- ceived the direct approbation of Ben Jonson, and the silent sanction of all other friends of the Poet, resembles this Portrait much more than it does the Bust. The Portrait here offered has been always considered to be that of Shakspeare, and is an early, if not an original representation of those features which tradition, and the accordance of many portraits, authorise us in calling Shakspeare's. No. C 59 ] We have therefore thought it better to give this probably authentic representation, than to omit, from the eminent men of England, all notice of perhaps the most eminent of them all. 182 King Henry VII. with his Queen. ^ King Henry VHI. with Jane '^mS Remit, after Holbein. - HIS MAJESTY MOUR. - - - _ 3 Jane Seymour had been Maid of Honour to Ann Boleyn ; and the King s passion for her is supposed to have hastened the latter to the scaffold. Of all the wives of Henry VHI. she was the most beloved by that capri- cious Monarch.

When Queen Mafy, in 1553, visited the Tower, u here he had been a prisoner 16 or J 7 years 'she released him, the Duke of Norfolk, and some others, and shortly Ifter created him Earl of Devonshire. She is said to have wished to marry him; but he is supposed to have declined, as preferring her sister the Princess Elizabeth. ' In 1554 he was again committed to the Tower, with the Princess Eliza- beth, accused of being concerned in Wyatt's conspiracv, but released some months after, upon the intercession of Philip. He'died at Padua about a year after his release, at the age of 30, and is supposed to have been poisoned. He is represented by the historians of the time as a very handsome man ; and dnnng his long detention in prison, is said to have cultivated the arts, and to have acquired various accomplishments.

Attendants are placed in different parts of the Gallery to prevent any Person from touching the Pictures. Ten years have elapsed since we offered to public inspection the. Paintings of Sir Joshua Reynolds ; and if at intervals of the same period, we were to present an Exhibition of his Works, we are convinced it would prove most useful to the Painter, and grati- fying to the Public. Taste and Fashion seldom perhaps go hand in hand, but they never were more at variance than when Sir Joshua was in the full exercise of his powers ; female dress was never more unfavourable to the Painter's Art, than at that period ; and yet female beauty was never represented with more fascinating charms, than by his pencil The truth is, that he was one of the greatest masters of grace and elegance that ever hved : " he touched nothing which he did not adorn r and his works prove to us, how much more depends upon the artist's skill in treating his subject, than upon the subject itself. His Practice we have before us : his Theory will be found in those excellent Discourses which he delivered at the Royal Academy, which can never be read by the lover of the arts without interest, the scholar without delight, or the painter without instruction. Some of us remember the kindness of his heart, and the compla- cency of his character :-these dispositions led him in the practice of his art, generally to select subjects which belong to the gentler feelings, and the kindlier affections of our nature ; but the exam- ples here presented to us fully show, that the most forcible expres- sion of the strongest passions was not above his reach. We are proud of our countryman ; we rank him among the most eminent Painters the art has produced ; we honour his name ; and we hope others may he led into the same path, and may be excited by his success to similar exertions. The liberality of the Possessors of Ancient Pictures, has enabled us also to exhibit to the Public some distinguished Works of the Italian, Spanish, Dutch, and Flemish Schools. The disposition which has been thus evinced by the Proprietors of these Works to enrich our Gallery, is highly gratifying to us ; but it is to His Majesty's most gracious kindness and condescension, that we are particularly indebted upon this, and upon all former occasions, for permitting us to select, both from the Royal Palaces, and from his own beautiful Private Collection, some of the Works which have most added to the brilliancy of our Exhibition. The arrangement of the Pictures in the North Room has in some respects been altered since the opening of the present Exhi- bition, for the purpose of making room for the " Vision of St. Jerome ''by Parmegiano, lately purchased for the Institution, but the Number upon each Picture still corresponds with those in this Catalogue.

Notwithstanding the invariable protection and encouragement afforded by His Majesty, the Directors of the British Institution could scarcely have ventured to hope that it would ever have been in their power to gratify the Publick by an Exhibition of the Works which now adorn its walls. His Majesty has, however, been graciously pleased to entrust to their care for this purpose, the whole of his Private Collection of Pictures at Carlton House Palace. The Directors confidently anticipate that, in thus availing themselves of His Majesty's gracious permission, they shall not only be the means of giving very general satisfaction, but that the Exhibition will prove highly beneficial to the Students in the Art ; for they are persuaded it must be admitted by every one, that the Collection is not more honourable to the munifilcence, than to the taste and judgment of the Prince by whom it has been formed. The Directors have on former occasions adverted to the peculiar merits of the Dutch and Flemish Schools of Painting, of which this Collection is principally composed— the briUiancy, force and harmony of colouring, the truth of character and expression, and the wonderfiil facihty and power of execution, — all these characteristick excellencies are apparent in many of the exquisite specimens now offered for pubHck inspection. The lovers of British Art will observe with feelings of pride, that the Pictures of Sir Joshua Reynolds in the present Exhibition are such as fully to justify the eminent station in which he is placed among the professors of the Art of Painting. These Pictures are among the most briUiant productions of his pencil; they attest the extent and variety of his powers, and prove that there are few indeed of his predecessors to whom he can be considered inferior as an Artist. June V7th, 1826. Attendants are placed in different parts of the Gallery to prevent any Person from touching the Pictures.

The attraction to this Gallery in the course of the last year, occasioned by the Exhibition of His Majesty's Private Collec- tion, and the disappointment expressed by many Persons who had not an opportunity of seeing it, induced the Directors to request His Majesty's permission to allow them again to offer it for public Inspection. His Majesty most readily and graciously coinplied with their request ; and to give further interest to the Collection, directed that several Additions should be made to it, consisting chiefly of the Works of British Artists. The Collection will be found to exhibit a most striking dis- play of talent; will prove His Majesty's Taste in the selection of the Works themselves, and his anxious desire to interest the pubHc feehng in the advancement of the Fine Arts.

The Duke of Devonshire having determined upon removing a considerable portion of his fine Collection of Pictm-es from his town residence to his noble mansion at Chatsworth, very liberally offered a selection of them to be exhibited at the British Gallery, before their final removal from London. The Directors have availed themselves of this very handsome offer, and have accepted between thirty and forty, which, added to the contributions of the Duke of Sutherland, Lord Francis Egerton, Lord Northwick, Mr, Wells, Mr. Perkins, and others, will, they feel confident, make this one of the finest Exhibitions they have been enabled to offer to public view. His Majesty, with his usual liberality and love for the Fine Arts, has been graciously pleased to allow five of his finest Dutch Pictures to be exhibited on the present occasion.

Solemn indeed it was, beyond all example ; for Strafford halted before the window, and when his old and venerable friend came to it, bowed himself to the ground and said, " My Lord, your prayers and your blessings !" Laud lifted up his hands and bestowed both, and then overcome with grief, fell to the ground senseless j while Strafford, bowing himself a second time, said, ''Farewell, my Lord, God protect your innocency."

The padlock which he holds in his right hand is probably the decoration of the Order of Alcantara, mentioned by Gil Bias as one of the favours con- ferred upon him at the instance of the favourite, and the costume a specimen of the new outfit which, on the same authority, we learn was provided. It may be conjectured that the picture was left unfinished, in consequence of the Minister's fall from power, which occurred soon after the act of recognition. The feathers of the hat are obviously merely sketched. 37 A River Scene, with Boats and Figures 38 The Holy Family, with Saints in a Land- scape - 39 Christ disputing with the Doctors 40 Christ blessing Little Children, from Marshal Soult's Collection 41 A Man drinking 42 The Holy Family, in a Landscape Painters.

B The Directors of the British Institution have been enabled by the liberaHty and kindness of the Proprietors, to collect for their Second Exhibition some fine Works of the Ancient Masters, that have never been exhibited on any former occasion. Some few of singular merit appear for a second time, but it is after a lapse of several years. The Directors have this year made an alteration in the usual plan, and have dedicated one room entirely to the reception of the Works of Mr. Hilton, the late Keeper of the Royal Academy. His merit is too well known, and his character too highly appre- ciated, to render it necessary to say one word on the subject. They flatter themselves that the Public will be gratified with an Exhibition, that will at the same time do credit to the memory of the Artist. The Directors take this opportunity of announcing their intention of giving next year Four Prizes of Fifty Guineas each to Pictures which have never been exhibited to the Public before their admission to the British Institution ; it being understood that no artist will be entitled to more than one prize.

Two Rooms have been appropriated principally to the reception of the Works of deceased British Artists,— Reynolds, Wilson, Gains- borough, Hogarth and others,— forming a Collection which they flatter themselves will be as interesting to the PubUc as it is honourable to native talent. They have added also a Selection of the Works of the late Thomas Stothard, Esq., R.A., whose taste and poetic feeling have been rarely excelled.

B The Directors of the British Institution offer to the Public attention a Col- lection of Pictures of the Ancient Masters, not inferior to any that have been exhibited in former years, and which they are enabled to do, by the kindness and liberality of Collectors of the first taste and judgement ; to whom they beg to express their thanks. The Third Room is appropriated to the Works of deceased British Artists. The Directors take this opportunity of expressing their intention, on the next Exhibition of the Modern School, to receive only Pictures that have not been on any previous occasion exhibited to the Public. The limited extent of the walls render it incumbent on them to adopt this course, as they were com- pelled to decline on the last occasion four hundred and thirty paintings from want of space.

B The Directors and Governors of the British Institution have the satisfac- tion of offering to pubHc view a collection of Pictures of that merit and ex- cellence, which they feel confident will be highly appreciated. There is a novelty on the present occasion to which they cannot but refer, namely, a series of Pictures from the times of Giotto and Van Eyck. The South Room is as usual appropriated to the reception of the Works of deceased British Artists, though many choice specimens of the Dutch School are also introduced. The Directors cannot conclude this brief notice, without expressing their thanks to the Proprietors of these most valuable works, for the kind and liberal support that they invariably receive at their hands.

This is the thirty-seventh year, that they have been enabled to adorn their walls with some of the finest Works of the Old Masters, and to retain also a selection of them for the study of Artists, at the close of the Exhibition. Many of the Pictures which have been exhibited, have come from the Country residences of their possessors, where of course only a limited number of persons can have had an opportunity of seeing them. The Directors feel much indebted to the kindness and liberality of the Proprietors of these fine Works. To no one are their thanks more due than to the Earl of Yarborough who having last year placed at their disposal the whole of his London Collection, has this year lent to them no less than thirty-five Pictures, being a considerable portion of his Collection at Appuldurcombe Park.
