COLLECTION OF SIR R. PEEL.
351
woman and four boys, two of them seated on a little boat.
The sea rolling and breaking on the shore is beautiful, and
the threatening clouds full of movement. From the col-
lection of M. Lormier, in 1763, for 18?., from that of
M. de. St. Victor, in 1822, for 1547.
P. 1 ft. 2 in. by 1 ft. 7 in. (Smith’s Cat. 65.)
2 View off the Mouth of the Thames.—A strong
gale and wild rolling sea; a Dutch packet-boat entering the
river under main and foresails, a boat attached to her stern.
A little in advance, a boat with six men; beyond these the
cliffs of the English coast, resembling Dover. A large
ship of war is seen advancing on the opposite side. The
sky is turbulent, with dark driving clouds casting their
shadows over the sea. From the collection of M. la Fon-
taine, 1811, bought in at the nominal price of 1450gs.;
since purchased by Sir Robert Peel.
C. 3 ft. 2 in. by 4 ft. 4 in. (Smith’s Cat. 88.)
BERGHEM (Nicholas), b. 1624 ; d. 1683. [This painter has been
fully characterized, pp.15, 135. The picture here is of singular beauty;
a perfect example of his style.]
3 Landscape.—Lofty arched ruins, with a stream running
at their base. Four cows and a goat are mid-leg in the
stream; on one side, a man with a bundle, and a dog near
him; on the other side, a woman in a red petticoat mounted
on an ass, and a man on foot. Sold from the Poulain col-
lection, in 1780, for 1867.; from that of the Duke de Cha-
bot, in 1787, for 1921.; from that of M. Tolozan, in 1801,

3457.; from that of John Humble, Esq., 1812, for 350gs.;
from that of Sir Simon Clarke, in 1840, it passed into the
possession of Sir Robert Peel, at the price of 385 guineas.
