near the mountains. The esfect of a beautiful summer’s
evening pervades the scene, and light diaphanous clouds ssoat
over the azure sky. This is a production of the rarest
excellence and beauty.
1st. 111 in. by 2 st. 4 in.
Now in the collection of John Newington Hughes, Esq.
222. A Herd of live Cows, standing in the shallow margin
of an extensive river. The one most advanced in the stream,
of a dark colour with a whitish face, is drinking; the others
stand in a group together. The warmth and stillness of a
sine evening in autumn is successfully represented.
1 ft. 11| in. by 2 st. 5 in.—P.
223. The Companion. A Herd of five Cows and a Bull,
grouped on the side of a high bank, near a river. The latter
animal is nearly black, and lies a little separate from the rest,
in the centre of the fore-ground. One of the cows, of a pale
yellow hue, also reposes; and the rest are standing close to
her. The skies of both pictures are overcast with gray
clouds, relieved by faint gleams of sunshine. They are
painted in the artist’s broad and vigorous manner.
From the collection of Lord Radstock.
Now in the collection of Abraham Robarts, Esq.
224. A View on the Dort River, represented under the
aspect of a fine autumnal evening. The subject offers, on
the right and front, the Rotterdam passage boat, with
numerous passengers on board ; some of her sails are hoisted, s
and a man on deck is beating a drum as a signal for her
departure. A small boat with five persons in it lies along-
side of her ; one of them, by his dress, appears to be a man
of some distinction. Two other boats, full of passengers, are
on the opposite side ; and beyond these are a dismantled
