410 COLLECTION OF MR. ROGERS.
66 A Girl with a Bird concealed in her hand. The cunning
exultation in her laugh is most true to nature.
6 7 Cupid and Psyche.—Psyche holding the lamp, and gazing
on Cupid, who is asleep. Figures life size. A picture
of most brilliant effect, and, in the tender, greenish half-
tints, of great delicacy. The Cupid finer than the Psyche.
68 A Landscape.—The view from his own house on Richmond
Hill. Painted strongly, in the manner of Rembrandt,
which, it may be observed, is hardly in character with the
scene.
STOTHARD (T.), b. 1755 ; d. 1834.
69 Peace. The Triumph of Amphitrite. A Fete Cham-
petre. A Scene from Chaucer. The Flower and the
Leaf. Scene from the Children in the Wood. Belinda
surrounded by sylphs, from the “ Rape of the Lock.”
And five other small sketches.
SULLY (Thomas), b. 1783, in England. [An artist, who, having
resided since childhood in America, considers himself, and is con-
sidered, an American. Now residing at Philadelphia.]
70 A Head of Queen Victoria.—Painted when Mr. Sully
was in England, in 1838.
TURNER (T. W. M., R.A.)
71 Stonehenge.—Drawing in water-colours.
WILKIE (Sir David), b. 1785; d. 1841.
72 A Spanish Senorita—with her nurse, a woman of the
Asturias. Sketched on the Prado, at Madrid, in 1828.
In water-colours.
WILSON (Richard), b. 1728 ; d. 1782.
73 Landscape.—An evening effect of deep shadow, and rich
glowing light. 16 in. by 20 in.

74 A Frame containing twelve Ancient Miniatures.—Among
them are the portraits of Isabella of Arragon, Joanna of
Arragon; Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley; Queen Elizabeth,
at the age of seventeen, by Holbein ; also a most beau-
tiful Venetian miniature of a female, with a head-dress
like those we see in Giorgione’s pictures.
