REMBRANDT VAN RHYN.

Portraits of Men.
432. A Gentleman about thirty years of age, seen in a
three-quarter view, with his head inclining to the right shoul-
der. He has on a large hat decked with ribbons, a dark vest
with small buttons, a large coat, and a plain pendent white
collar. His occupation appears to be the arts, for he holds
with both hands a kind of sketch book, and a portcrayon is
between the fingers of his right hand. Engraved in a superior
manner by Saye, and described from the print.
This is probably the picture which was sold under the
denomination of “ The Artist,” in the collection of Lord
Kinnaird, in 1813, for 200 gs.

433. A Turk, represented in a front view, whole length,
standing, with one hand on his hip, and holding in the other a
long pipe, the bowl of which touches the ground. He has on
a turban, and wears an embroidered coat, with a scarf round
his waist, and a cloak lined with fur. Engraved by Longhi,
and described from the print.

434. A Gentleman near forty years of age, seen in a front
view, having a small tuft of beard, and mustacheos. He has
on a flat velvet cap, and a cloak which conceals nearly the
whole of his vest, leaving space only for a medal, which is
attached to a chain round his neck. Engraved by Riedel, and
described from the print.

435. A Bust Portrait of a very aged Man, seen in nearly
a front view, with a large beard, and having a black coif on
his head. Engraved by Picart, under the title of Lucien
Antenogrec. Described from the print.
