206 JOHN AND ANDREW BOTH.
94. Soldiers conducting Prisoners. A grand landscape,
representing a view in Italy. The composition offers, on the
left, a chain of lofty rocks, from whose side gushes a stream,
which falls in foaming masses among fragments of rock. The
more distant country, although partially obscured by hazy
mists, presents the appearance of a rich and sertile soil. This
picture is distinguished from others by a file of halberdiers
conducting two prisoners along a road towards the front.
Two other soldiers with prisoners, and some peasants, are
beyond them. This is an excellent picture by the master.
2 ft. 8 in. by 4 st. 6 in.—C. (about.)
Exhibited in the British Gallery in 1831.
Now in the collection of Edward Gray, Esq., Haringay House.

95. A View in Italy, representing a mountainous scene, and
distinguished by a cluster of trees rising amidst bushes in the
centre of the fore-ground. On a road which winds under
some lofty rocks on the right, is a muleteer in conversation
with a woman, behind whom is a boy, and near them are two
laden mules; a little beyond these is a man on an ass, accom-
panied by another on foot; and still farther are other
travellers. The opposite side of the picture exhibits an
open country, divided by a river, which is bounded by hills.
The warmth of a fine summer’s day adds its charm to this
excellent production.
A ft. 6| in. by 2 st. 1 in.—P.
Now in the collection of the Baron Steengracht, at the Hague.

96. Muleteers with their laden Beasts. The view appears to
represent the summit of an extensive hill, highly cultivated,
and beautifully varied with bushy trees. A cascade breaks
through a chasm of some rocks in the centre, and a winding-
road traverses the left, on which are a gentleman on a mule,
and a traveller on foot; a little beyond them are carriers
