JOHN WYNANTS.

47. A Herdsman with Oxen. A landscape, exhibiting a
hilly site, composed, on the left, of a high bank, of a loose
sandy soil, on which stands the withered trunk of an old oak.
Upon a high road, which divides the country, is a herdsman,
accompanied by a boy, driving four oxen and some cows; and
beyond these is a woman with a basket on her head : these are
introduced by Adrian Vander Velde.

48. The charitable Cavalier. A landscape, of a broken
and undulated site, and of a sandy arid soil, partially covered
with heath, a few docks and other wild herbage, and some
clumps of trees. The pencil of Lingelbach has contributed to
the interest of the scene, by the introduction of a gentleman
and a lady on horseback, the former of whom appears to be
halting on a road to relieve a party of mendicants.
